Butt deal could go sour on Birmingham

NEWCASTLE misfit Nicky Butt could yet end up back at St James’ Park if Birmingham are relegated.

The 30-year-old is on a season-long loan at St Andrews and is expected to join Steve Bruce’s side permanently at the end of the season.

But Magpies chairman Freddy Shepherd has revealed the arrangement will fall through if City plunge into the Coca-Cola Championship.
