And no name is 'too big' for Big Sam's reserves.

Michael Owen plays tonight at Kingston Park as the Reserves take on Blue Star. His first match after returning from yet another injury set back.

The England international will partner Shola Ameobi up front, in a side that boasts nine players with Premiership experience.

Only goalkeeper Fraser Forster and new signing Claudio Cacapa have not played in Newcastle's first team.

A pleasant change from Roeder's theory "big name players don't like playing for the Reserves".

The match kicks off at 7-30.
