and live on Freeview channel 276
Dickman was appointed at Newcastle last October, just after the club was taken over by a consortium led by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund. The Magpies will look to confirm a new lead player development coach in due course with head of coach development Neil Winskill overseeing Under-21s training in the meantime.
United’s academy has seen several changes since last year’s takeover with Graeme Carrick appointed as the Under-18s coach in August along with assistant Chris Moore. Former Under-18s coach Peter Ramage moved to assist Shola Ameobi as loan player coordinator.
