Amanda Staveley shows class as contract 'honoured' after Newcastle assistant left the club

Stephen Clemence has revealed that Amanda Staveley was 'very good' with him when the former Newcastle United assistant left the club.

Clemence and fellow number two Steve Agnew departed in November, 2021 after staying on, initially, to assist interim boss Graeme Jones following Steve Bruce's exit. The pair, unsurprisingly, moved on after Eddie Howe was appointed as the club's new head coach.

Howe already knew Jones, who had the added advantage of previously working with his staff at Bournemouth, but the Newcastle boss also planned to bring in his own coaching team. Howe, after all, had decided against taking the Celtic job just a few months earlier because he could not get his staff together.
