actually hes still only 20

I played with and against this lad at amateur and academy level, and I can honestly say he was a super player and many people thought he could be a sensation in SL.

I don't know what went wrong, maybe the hype got to his head, maybe the pressure of being billed the "next best thing" got to him. Either way, he's a young lad and deserves the support of fan's.

Very much neglected down here in Wales, and gutted he didn't stay. He'll be a top player, many people forget he's only 20. Good luck to him at Salford; we'd have him back here any time.

I used to love that about Newy ... so often he would make his opposite number look absolutely ridiculous.

Absolutely, criminally over-rated by all and sundry on here when he was barely out of nappies. His attacking threat was there for all to see in the limited time he had in our first team, and I think he may have been held back a bit last year by hardly playing in what was an important year for his development. Hopefully he can get back on track, if his defence improves we should defintiely look to have him back in future.
