Blackburn's Zurab can handle hectic Newcastle schedule

Blackburn Rovers defender Zurab Khizanishvili has no problem playing in the Championship on-loan with Newcastle United.

He told the Evening Chronicle: "Most weeks you have three games in the Championship and that is crazy.

"I've had Ipswich, QPR and now Bristol - it's a lot in one week, but I don't complain about anything like that.

"In the Premier League it's different.

"But we are looking to go back and win the next game. That's what we need."
