Experience Newcastle United FC First Team Manager Newcastle United FC 2014 – 2015 (1 year) I was appointed Caretaker Manager and then First Team Manager following the departure of Alan Pardew to Crystal Palace, inheriting an underperforming squad that had lost 4 of its last 7 games. The club was also experiencing a well-publicised and still ongoing period of turbulence involving the current ownership that saw fans frequently protesting at St James’ Park.

The sad thing is that the last line 'PS Copied from the Mag' genuinely appears at the bottom of his CV
Just searched Rafa Benitez to see if there was any news and, though its not important, what caught my eye in his profile in the top right is the fact it suggests he's 75kg. Isn't that about 12 stone, he looks more portly than 12 stone. Anyway, weight aside, I would love to see him come in. I was all behind Mclarens appointment but thats when I thought someone of Benitez's calire was out of our reach...... which he still probably is as it remains to be seen if he will take over
I was getting a bit excited but it's taking too long. At least you would of expected and announcement about McClaren by now.
NEVER EVER has a new managerial appointment been handled like this. Its ****ing hilarious. Perhaps other fans will now understand what we have to go through on a daily basis to be a fan of this mental football club
Nope...its due to our deluded, parochial, ingrained non-geordie hatred, small club mentality of us fans, hounding out of the fine upstanding managers* ..that have, no doubt...MADE ..Charnley into .... a useless, no class, incompetent. *Normal service will be resumed shortly.

I'm Mumbai watching some sports channel not sure where its getting the channel from but it's a Barclays premier league panel show and they are talking like it is done.
Sports Ireland News saying that McClaren has been sacked! http://sportsnewsireland.com/soccer/soccer_world/newcastle-united-sack-manager-steve-mcclaren/
If the Club and Rafa are now in advanced talks as being reported, it can only mean that Charnley has initiated the Waterboarding phase of the negotiations. Surely Rafa cant hold out much longer before he signs up.
The very second he becomes our manager im putting £1000 on us winning the league next season and £5000 on us winning the champions league the following one. If anyone's says I'm deluded.....
