Newcastle United Captain Was suspending Because of insulting a top legend in public.

There may well have been an air of triumphalism in the St James’ Park directors’ box as Mike Ashley hailed the quick success of his latest roll of the dice, and judging by the way Newcastle captain Kevin Nolan was talking afterwards his most recent bet should produce long-term returns.

Even though Newcastle’s owner unintentionally converted his Tyneside team into a laughingstock, manager Nolan is keen to make sure the team gets over its reputation as “Loony Toons” and doesn’t make the same mistakes that cost them the Championship the previous two seasons, when manager Kevin Keegan was fired.

Nolan moved from Bolton to Newcastle just under two years ago, during a time when his new team was in dire straits. Despite the lack of big-name players from that era, Nolan thinks the current squad can make up for it with the spirit that Chris Hughton instilled before he was fired, and Alan Pardew took over as manager.

Nolan declared, “We don’t want to go back to where we were two years ago.” “We want to leave Newcastle and the label of ‘Loony Toons,’ as well as the uncertainty surrounding the team.” We only want to concentrate on our football.

“We’ll be secure if we place 17th. In order to guarantee our spot in this league the following year, we must arrive as soon as possible. That may enable us to bring in players of a better caliber. This is a club that belongs in European cups as well as the Premier League. We think it will arrive, even if it does so gradually.

Hughton’s dismissal had sparked speculation that there might be dressing-room disturbances, but Nolan was eager to debunk this notion after managing director Derek Llambias held frank discussions. “We have to respect that the owners of this club have the final say,” he stated. “We wanted to make sure we performed and demonstrated our feelings for this club. Alan is making every effort to become as familiar with us as he can. Talk of an uprising against Alan is absurd. We have to work under him since he is our gaffer.

It’s a challenging circumstance for him. He wants to be certain that neither we nor ourselves resent him. It’s not related to him at all. When we spoke with Derek, we wanted clarification. There was no overreaction because it was a private gathering. Derek was kind enough to come and explain the decision, and it was straightforward.
