Timothy Michael "Tim" Krul (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈtɪm ˈkrʏl]; born 3 April 1988) is a Dutch footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Premier League club Newcastle United and the Netherlands national team. In his home town he is known as "Bakkers Handen", which roughly translates to "Baker's hands", in reference to how 'safe' his hands are in goal.

Krul began his career at hometown club RAS and later at local Eredivisie club ADO Den Haag. He joined Premier League club Newcastle United in the summer of 2005 on a three-year deal after failing to sign professional terms. ADO demanded a compensation fee and objected with the FIFA Dispute Resolution Chamber (DRC). The DRC denied the claim and ADO took the case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). The CAS ruled in February 2007 in favor of ADO ordering Newcastle to pay €220,000 as compensation for the transfer.

He played in the Under-17 European Championship for the Netherlands in Italy in May 2005 and eventually made the step up to the Dutch under-21 squad. He made his first senior appearance for Newcastle in a pre-season defeat to PSV Eindhoven on July 29, 2006.

Andrew John "Andy" Woodman (born 11 August 1971) is an English football coach and former player. He is currently goalkeeping coach at Newcastle United. As a player, his highest claim to fame was being goalkeeper for Northampton Town when they won the Division Three playoffs in 1997.

Woodman played for a number of clubs in his career, starting out at Crystal Palace in the 1989–90 season. He stayed with them for several years, and whilst he was their youth team goalkeeper he also played regularly on loan for Bognor Regis Town. In 1994 he moved to Exeter City. His spell at Exeter was cut short following two red cards in quick succession, one against Leyton Orient for violent conduct, and secondly against Colchester United in the FA Cup, for deliberate handball outside the area, when after making a total hash of a back pass he decided to dive on the ball with both hands. Exeter fans never forgave him for this, and when he later played in goal for Northampton in a home game with Exeter he was forced to endure repeated chants of "We remember Colchester" from the away fans behind his goal.
