I don't think it will be a shock to him, but never nice to receive the news. Do feel slightly sorry for him as I think that the squad has massively under-performed this year.
As much as I like digging you lot about Keegan at least he had the self awareness to see he wasn't up to the England job and the honour and honesty to quit. McLaren has never been up to the job. Not sure Benitez is the man for a relegation scrap though.
I feel no sadness for McClaren at all He started Riv on Sat and Gouf on Wed's Remember that. He could have walked, at any point this week. If the stories were getting to him, he shoulda asked for assurances or quit, but no he stayed and looked like a mug, but a well paid mug because he will be getting his compo. He has no class and no integrity in my opinion.
I've got to be honest, if it was the difference between walking away with nothing or getting a lump sum that would set me up for a long time to come (not that he'll be short of a bob or two) I would probably hold out for the payment.
Usually yes but, between just you and me, Penfold has driven Rafa to the edge in the discussions concentrating on new deco in the Head Coach Office that any little thing might make him say no!! And I don't want you to be that "little thing".
maybe friend . but hes not here for a quick fix ...its more than that .. and it looks like hes changed something straight away he is a manager not a coach .so is going to have a massive say in players ...fingers crossed lol
please log in to view this image Lee Ryder lee_ryder #nufc saying Steve McClaren has NOT been sacked yet. Nothing about his departure yet from the club. FARCE!!!!!
This is why I will be waiting until seeing it in black and white before celebrating. We've been here before!
Exactly, he will fill up the defence (he is a ..big boned ..lad) and is about the same speed as Colo ...win win Rafa for shirt number 2
15:44 BBC sports news correspondent Richard Conway with the latest from Newcastle. please log in to view this image Richard Conway richard_conway McClaren remains manager of Newcastle United. For now. Expectation is he will go. When? Anyone's guess. Lacks dignity, for all concerned.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Only at this club!!!! And again the sane footballing world is pissing themselves laughing!!!! Morons..
