Stoke dismiss talk of Toon striker bid
STOKE chairman Peter Coates has dismissed speculation linking the club with a bid for Newcastle striker Obafemi Martins.
The Potters have been linked with a number of strikers, West Ham's Dean Ashton being the main one, but Coates said Martins is not on their list.
"There's nothing in that one. We haven't had contact or discussions about him at all," he said.
"I don't know where the story has come from, but there is no substance to it."
