Macdonald fears for Magpies
Newcastle old boy Malcolm Macdonald fears things could get worse for the club before they get better.
The Magpies plummeted out of the Premier League at the end of last season in turmoil on and off the pitch, and the ongoing uncertainty with owner Mike Ashley looking for a buyer has not improved the situation.
Macdonald knows from bitter personal experience how destructive that could be, and is hoping for a swift resolution so planning for a new start can begin.
He told the Evening Chronicle: "When a football club, like Newcastle right now, has no direction from the top or in the dressing room, it can only go one way: down.
"When you hit such lows as Newcastle have, on and off the pitch these last few months, the one thing guaranteed to follow if you don't put things right after relegation is another relegation.
"If people are thinking Newcastle are automatically just going to bounce back, they will be massively disappointed. Things must be changed at the club. Why are things not being changed?"
