Newcastle United caretaker boss Graeme Jones has revealed he's at the club to stay.

Jones is determined to help in the transition of his boy-hood club in whatever capacity.

“I have spoken to (co-owner) Mehrdad (Ghodoussi) and I have spoken to Amanda and I have had assurances on my long-term future," he said. “But my short-term thought process is only on what I can affect – and that is Palace and then next Saturday.

“It is important for everybody going forward that I am at the football club and give them my genuine, honest, best help I possibly can in order to move the club forward.

“That is what I am going to continue to do in whatever role I am given – starting with Crystal Palace."
