Lee Clark has admitted he was stunned by the departure of Newcastle boss Kevin Keegan - and is not about to apply for a job at St James' Park.
Clark and former Magpies winger Paul Stephenson have been in Toronto during the international break to gain overseas experience for their Pro Licence qualification, working with Toronto FC boss John Carver.

Clark: "We have all kept a watching brief on St James's Park, and I have to say it is going to be a very interesting game with Hull City next Saturday.
"It is going to be a very difficult game for whoever takes over from Kevin because there will be so much hostility towards him from the fans.
"To say the four of us were stunned by the news of Kevin going is a vast understatement. We have all had dealings with him in our time and we could hardly respect him more.
"It was the opinion of all of us that he was the only person who could turn around Newcastle United.
"We are all Geordies and, like all Geordies, we were very disappointed at what has been happening."
