He wants to pair Marlon King with his former Coventry City strike partner Best.

King is due to have a medical and finalise terms at St Andrews today after apparently doing a u-turn on Coventry City's contract offer.

The Toon rate Best at around £3m but Birmingham hope to be able to agree a loan deal for the former Sky Blues star, who left the Ricoh Arena last year.

I doubt very much if Pardew will accept a loan deal.

He would take the £3m ... but how would Newcastle benefit from a loan deal?

FOREWORD BY FAIRS CUP HERO JOHN McNAMEE

JM

Sports Journalist Richie Everson: "At last a book that the fabulous Newcastle United fans can relate to. It's informative, all the facts and figures are there, plus the 120 match reports from all the fixtures ... but it is the articles by the supporters that amazed me.

"I went to many of those games, and this is the only book I can honestly say 'hits the nail on the head'!

"Yes we know the results and the scorers, but some of the facts in this book had me so wrapped up in it I couldn't put it down.

"Was Benny Arentoft cup-tied when he played in the final? Big Wyn and his battle with John McGrath; McFaul scoring a penalty when the crowd had gone home; the trouble in Palermo; it is all amazing stuff.

"I would honestly give this book 10 out of 10."
