I'm still slightly confused as to why Newcastle want him at this point in the season.
OK he's a good third division striker but they're almost certainly set on their way back to the Premiership - he may pick up a few goals for them between now and the end of the season but he's a big financial gamble to take for a couple of years presumably on top level wages -does anyone on the list think he's Premiership quality or that he can get there by August? IMHO of all the players who turmed their back on Leeds over the years, he's the most certain to fall under "The curse of Billy" - by Christmas the Barcodes will be offering him on loan to anyone in the Championship and they'll still pay half his wages.
