I'll bet he was offered it, remember we jumped at the chance of bring in McClaren after he'd been sacked by Derby, not to mention if rumours are to be believed, Joe Kinnear was offered a 3 year contract. Ashley will bring in any useless old duffer as long as its on the cheap.
Aye, unbelievable yet totally believable at the same time. Surely if he was offered it though he'd have taken it the greedy prick that he is
If anyone needed further proof Ashley is revelling in this mess, his approach of Allardyce should tell you all you need to know. Remains a figure of hate on Tyneside after his appalling efforts last time. Had us hurtling down the table and we had relegation candidates written all over us. Ashley knows that. The approach of him and Bruce is just him having a laugh.
It's nice to see by it's absence Mark Hughes hasn't been linked....yet! Or we could follow Chelsea & Fulham's examples and appoint a former player (even if relatively inexperienced as manager), Kevin Nolan? Nicky Butt? Solano?
Don’t know why nobody is talking about Lee Bowyer. Seems to have done okay at Charlton in difficult circumstances.
Of the options out there (as in English and cheap) Chrissy would be the man. Previous experience in creating a decent atmosphere in a ****storm club.... Ours. Steve ****ing Bruce man, you know he has written three books? All ****ing awful and loosely based on his wet dream of being a detective footballer. Anyone needing a laugh should listen to it being dissected on the 'quickly kevin will he score' podcast.
