Magpies' boss Sir Bobby Robson has once again confirmed that he WILL NOT be stepping down at the end of the season.

Chairman Freddy Shepherd hinted that if Newcastle United were to win the UEFA Cup, he would retire on a high, and recent rumours suggested at SBR would be doing the same - however, this is not true.

Robson recently signed a contract which expires at the end of next season and said:

"I'm not leaving this summer. No way. Win or lose in the cup, it doesn't matter. I'll leave when I feel I'm ready to leave, not before."
