Newcastle United owe Eddie Howe a transfer window - but cannot repeat Bobby Robson mistake

Former goalkeeper Shay Given has been called out for incorrectly claiming that former Newcastle boss Bobby Robson told him to dive the wrong way for a Wayne Rooney penalty. The story went‚ as the former Newcastle shot-stopper told The Overlap podcast: 'I remember a time at Old Trafford once‚ we played Man United away and Rooney was the penalty taker - and his last three went to the keeper's right. 'Bobby Robson was the manager and I said to the gaffer "well‚ he's going to change his mind eventually and go to the left" and Bobby's like "No! I want you to go to the right."

If Newcastle lose to Barca‚ it won't be a surprise if fans start calling for the head of Eddie Howe‚ the best thing to have happened to the club since Sir Bobby Robson left more than 20 years ago.
