I voted for Keegan out of hilarity seeing as how nearly none of these are realistic.

Keegan and Shearer have both blasted the Ashley regime in recent years. Martin O'Neill's last job was a failure at the Mackems - not even Ashley is that stupid. He fired Big Sam because he doesn't like boring football (in theory), so that'd rule McLeish out.

I'm pretty sure Curbishley's retired, and Hoddle? Ha.
 
I expect it to be Kinnear though I don't wish him to be. In fact, there's none on that list whom I would want as manager.

In fact, I don't know what I want regarding this club any more other that they don't get relegated this season; my lay against them being relegated is a little top heavy at the moment. But other than that, I really don't know what I want in terms of manager, players or whatever. As long as the whole thing is poisoned from the very top it just feels utterly pointless.

And the only way that things will change is when 55,000 people stop turning up. Effectively everyone who goes through those turnstiles is actively supporting Ashley's regime.
 
If it goes badly in the next two games I think Poyet will take over at 9.30 on Monday 2nd September. This will give Poyet 12 days before the next match to take stock of things.
If we win the next these games, my theory will be down the sewer, but I can live with that.
 
'Arry? No chance. He won't go to a club where the purse strings are closed tighter than a duck's arse and where he'll have someone else interfering with his wheeling and dealing.

King Kev will save us and get us back to winning ways. All hail King Kev.
 
I fully expect Kinnear, at the very least in the short term but maybe longer. I'd prefer Poyet or Hoddle (I went Hoddle in hope).
 
Its a shame, but little chance of MA going from a docile puppet like Pardew to someone as forward thinking and enlightening as Hoddle.
 
Im team King Kev lolz.

But seriously, none of the choices excite me or seem realistic. I'd probably take RDM, but would be surprised if a manager who has won the CL would want to **** up his promising career at NUFC.
