Huddersfield Town versus Newcastle United and Coventry City is top quality build-up
"Newcastle are always high profile, but recent events have put the club in the spotlight even more than usual.
"Lee Clark has used his extensive contacts to fix up the games – he is still close to many people at St James’ Park, and is good friends with Coventry manager Chris Coleman, with whom he played at Fulham.
"Our players will benefit from the games, and the staff will get the chance to run through a big-match routine."
Clark is particularly looking forward to welcoming Newcastle, where he was a popular player and cut his coaching teeth as reserve team boss.
And he’ll be renewing acquaintance with ex-Town loan goalkeeper Steve Harper, pictured, with whom he played at St James’.
