Newcastle United have parted company with assistant manager Terry McDermott and reserve team coach Adam Sadler.

The decision comes just four days after manager Kevin Keegan quit St James' Park for the second time.

McDermott has had two spells at the club and worked under Kenny Dalglish, Graeme Souness, Glenn Roeder and Sam Allardyce, as well as Keegan.

Former youth team goalkeeper Sadler worked at the club's academy until being promoted by Roeder in 2006.

McDermott, a former Magpies midfielder, arrived at the club with Keegan in 1992 and was part of the team that guided the club back to the top-flight.
