Shearergol Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Tuesday night saw Newcastle first team coach Colin Calderwood reportedly present at the meeting of two of his former clubs, Northampton and Swindon. And it's claimed that the focus of his interest was Swindon's in-form striker Simon Cox - who didn't fail to disappoint as he grabbed a hat trick in a 4-3 victory. 21 year-old Cox began his career as a youngster with his hometown club Reading, making a handful of first team sub appearance for the Royals before being loaned out to Brentford, Northampton and Swindon. Moving to the County Ground in January 2008, Cox has come to prominence this season with 27 goals, seven of which have come in his last three appearances. Cox was a team mate of United defender Ben Tozer at Swindon, while current toon striker Nile Ranger also had a brief period on trial at the club before joining us last summer. Is that a real story? Scunthorpe, Leicester and Leeds are all looking at him!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Magpies move excites Shawky interest Middlesbrough outcast Mohamed Shawky has claimed Newcastle are monitoring him ahead of a possible summer move. Shawky admitted that he had problems with Gareth Southgate after failing to establish himself as a first-team regular at The Riverside. The Egyptian has featured just 17 times in the league since his arrival from Al-Ahly for £650,000 in August 2007. Boro seem increasingly likely to be playing Championship football next season but, according to Shawky their North East rival relegation rivals Newcastle sent a representative to watch both him and former Blackburn Rovers target Ahmed Al-Muhammadi in action for Egypt against Zambia. Shawky claims moving to Newcastle would be a step forward, despite the possibility that The Magpies could join Boro in next seasons second tier. "A Newcastle representative was present in Cairo to watch me in action during Egypt's World Cup qualifier with Zambia," Shawky told Al-Hayat TV. "They were also monitoring [ENPPI and Egypt right back] Ahmed Al-Muhammadi "Joining Newcastle would be a step forward. They are a very good team and have a large fanbase in England." http://www.setanta.com//uk/Articles/Football/2009/04/07/Premier-League-Shawky-on-Newcastle-interest/gnid-47647/ Haven't actually seen him play, which doesn't fill me with confidence.
