03 December 2011 11:10
Martin O'Neill was on Wearside this morning as Sunderland edged closer to sealing his appointment as their new manager.

The 59-year-old visited the club's Academy of Light training headquarters with former chairman Niall Quinn as the deal neared completion.

O'Neill is expected to be confirmed as the Black Cats' new boss later today after two days of productive talks with chairman Ellis Short.

"Magpies In Europe" is available NOW! It features match reports and individual features from Toon fans on the 60 'away' trips Newcastle have made in Europe. Sports Journalist Richie Everson: "At last a book that the fabulous Newcastle United fans can relate to. It's informative, all the facts and figures are there, plus the 120 match reports from all the fixtures ... but it is the articles by the supporters that amazed me. "I went to many of those games, and this is the only book I can honestly say 'hits the nail on the head'! "Yes we know the results and the scorers, but some of the facts in this book had me so wrapped up in it I couldn't put it down. "Was Benny Arentoft cup-tied when he played in the final? Big Wyn and his battle with John McGrath; McFaul scoring a penalty when the crowd had gone home; the trouble in Palermo; it is all amazing stuff. "I would honestly give this book 10 out of 10." The book is available NOW from THE BACK PAGE!
