Toon chairman has told Sam Allardyce to concentrate on signing young "up-and-coming talent" rather than the Golden Oldies he bought at Bolton.

And he seems to have lined up a star of the future.

Swindon Advertiser: "Club director Bob Holt this morning confirmed an offer for the youngster had been made and the Swindon Advertiser understands it will be accepted tomorrow.

"Tozer, who has made just a handful of first team appearances, has been at the centre of a bidding war between Premier League sides Everton, Portsmouth and Newcastle and it appears the Magpies have got their man.

"Last night both parties' lawyers are now just checking the wording of the contract and, if acceptable, the deal will go ahead tomorrow."
