Keegan keeps the faith

Michael Owen has been named among the substitutes as Newcastle boss Kevin Keegan selects an unchanged side for today's visit of Bolton to St James’ Park.

The 11 men who fought so valiantly for a draw at Manchester United were retained with Owen’s inclusion the only alteration to the 18.

Bolton manager Gary Megson too keeps faith with the team which beat Stoke 3-1 last time out.

Keegan goes into the match looking for revenge for the 0-0 draw Wanderers - with loan signing Danny Guthrie among their number – claimed in his first game back in January.
