Kinnear confident of Shay's future

Newcastle boss Joe Kinnear has told his Spurs counterpart harry Redknapp not to waste his time by pursuing interest in Shay Given.

The White Hart Lane boss is thought to be on the lookout for a new keeper after a string of sloppy performances from summer signing Heurelio Gomes.
But Kinnear is confident that the Republic of Ireland keeper will not have his head turned by the talk of a reported £6million bid from London.
He said: "I can save Harry the time and money and tell him not to bother even picking up the telephone, because there is no way Shay Given will be leaving this football club.
"We want to build up Newcastle United and get good players in, not good players out.
"And why would he want to go to Spurs? This is a bigger club than Spurs."
