    I wonder if he'll play the same 23% possession game ...

    ... they'll love that at Goodison.

    He couldn't manage Spennymoor successfully.

    Tears of boredom, he's firmly in the mould of manager who thinks if you can win 1-0 why bother trying to score more.

    Give you your due, you’ve always said that. The vocal ones love him though. He’s a hero!

    The Mags are in turmoil at the moment, just for a change.

    They have another dose of being dusted doon by Steve Bruce, another season of existing and Benitez has been snatched away from them. Under 'normal circumstances' there'd be funeral processions and misspelled bedsheets all over Tyneside, but Ashley has totally shushed them with his faux legal challenge about the takeover ...

    ... they can't say a word because they daren't rock the Sheikh boat and their chance of glory.

    I can't wait for their first match, seeing what they come up with to 'show up the PL'.

    I don't think he's a ****e manager, but I do think he's massively overrated. Did no better than Bruce up the road.

    First it was Ashley, then they blamed Pardew and Ashley, the. They blames Ashley because none of the crap football could be Benitez’s fault, then Ashley pulled a master stroke and got Steve Bruce which made them blame him instead of Ashley…

    Good manager but a bit of a come down from Ancelotti though. Would have loved him to have returned to us but it was never meant to be.

    It's always MA'S fault. It's his club and he can run it how he sees fit but from a footballing perspective he has taken us backwards. The managers work within the constraints set by him.

    Wonder what sickening banner the mags will unveil for their home game with Everton - like a desperate ex boyfriend making a mixed tape for the lass that shagged his best mate and dumped him for bloke with a bigger dick

    Again not according to the Vidal ones! Ada played utterly awful football every time I watched you on sky. Gary Neville said exactly the same. He used to love coming to commentate on Newcastle games but he’s hated it since before Rafa wa ps there. Yet your fans loved him! He relegated you and it was Ashley’s fault. He kept you up it was down to him. How is that possible?

    Aye. Desperately needs a good start or he’ll be a goner, especially with supporters back.

    I can’t remember one manager going to a club where not one single fan likes you, utter bloody madness the bloke hasn’t got a chance.
