As lovely as living in Newcastle sounds I think the most important non football thing for any players coming in on short term contracts or loans to them or us is that there is an airport (or helicopter launch platform) so they can get the h out of dodge when they have some time off . Canals, parks, historic buildings, theaters or cock-fighting contests and what not will be less important.
So we at least equal with Newcastle in the non football stuff.
Then again Newcastle loves them a number 9...
