Ryan Taylor: I'm looking forward to Euro 2012 to be honest with having two boys in the first game from Newcastle.
"Hopefully they both have bad games. But I'm looking forward to it.
"We are a very close bunch of lads at Newcastle - the spirit is great.
"We go out for meals. We go paint balling. We play golf together.
"It's not just we go into training and we go our separate ways. We have a lot of days we spend together.
"I think that helps. It also helps to have a good manager and a good bunch of staff behind them.
"I'd like a few new players to come in just to help boost the squad for Europe.
"You're playing every Thursday to Sunday. You're flying from different countries during the week and it can take it's toll on you.
"So hopefully we can get a few in to get the squad a bit bigger."
