I fear NP will be on the Dark Side hopefully watching their derby day humiliation and see full force of angry home fans - -I am freewheeling here but the ticking - lol
There is a rumour that Manuel has turned them down - Fat Mike has offered him a zero hour contract with less than the minimum wage
please log in to view this image Gary Lineker GaryLineker Newcastle have finally put Steve McClaren out of his misery. The running of that great football club is beyond shambolic. 11:46 a.m. - 11 March 2016
I like that Newcastle are showing ambition with this manager, as much as I don't like Rafa, I can't stand the portion of their fans who keep playing the 'no ambition' card. Their club was an absolute shambles under their previous regime and could have crumbled like a cheap biscuit if Ashley didn't save them. They've got one less thing to chat **** about now if he comes in. He's a proven winner (FACT ), not like in a McClaren way either. Next season the league could have Mourinho, Guardiola, Klopp, Wenger, Ranieri, Benitez, maybe Simeone if he goes to Chelsea. That's the sort of cast that can make **** hit the fan and give us all some top quality entertainment!
Yet they were all sacked because they had us dropping like a stone. We got lucky with them in first instance, you'll not find a football fan in the land who doesn't agree we've rode our luck. We should have gone by now. All three managers went on to show they were useless in a dog fight and it cost them their jobs.
Fair enough. However if they can keep you up (be it through luck or indeed design) then I'd be inclined to say Rafa is more than capable.
Never said he's not capable though fella, I just think there's better candidates which is the only point I've been making.
That's true. I'm not sure about Pearson myself. I feel like he'd be a bit too fiery for our fragile lot. Like setting a honey badger in against a swarm of bees.
I always wished I'd been able to sport a perm. As it is, if lol even dafter than I do now and that's saying something haha
Well you've just had King Mollycoddle in and with 80 odd million pounds worth of cash spent you've never looked worse. If I was Ashley I'd be looking for somebody to come in and kick their arses for 10 games then bring someone like Rafa in until the summer. Think those sort of targets wouldn't be interested until the summer anyway, they've no need to risk their managerial records for a ten game quick buck pay day.
You'll definitely not look daft on Saturday 2nd, will you It would have been better if that match was on Saturday 1st (April)
A great appointment for you guys but he is totally tactically different to Keegan, it would be interesting what he does with your defence and i feel you couldnt even make a bonfire out of that bunch........**** dont burn
