Newcastle boss Keegan won't rush Owen return

Newcastle boss Kevin Keegan won't rush back Michael Owen for this weekend's match against Bolton.

He said: "Michael probably won't be (fit), and Mark Viduka certainly won't be.

"I probably could rush Michael back and then knock him back five or six weeks.

"We are probably strong enough to do without the two of them - but when they come back, it will give us a massive boost."
