His focus has never been on first team transfers though. That's Jimenez' job. Bearing that in mind, I don't see how he's undermined the manager either.

He's just an easy target because of who he is. Bet the halfwits chanting for his head earlier have never heard of Tony Jimenez, for example.

I love the caption on the picture: 'A dejected Kevin Keegan during Saturday's 3-0 defeat at Arsenal' even though it clearly isn't.

Tomorrow's going to be just as bad as well unless the club make a announcement first thing saying "he's staying and let's get on with it" and I won't hold my breath on that one. Either another day of not knowing what the fuck is going on awaits or he goes early and we have another day of misery while we wrap our heads round it. This is supposed to be an enjoyable pastime of a weekend ffs.

Ashley and his entourage need to get a tank and get round KK's like the Spaced gang going round Marsha's. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sv3VZcFbakc

I feel like a relative in a hospital waiting room. I'm absolutely exhausted, been through the mill emotionally but can't just walk away and go to bed in case I miss anything and I have to get up in the morning to find he's gone.

If thats true, which seems plausable, then we have been dumped with one hell of a stingy Billionaire. It's not.

If he's staying, this needs to be the end of any tension between KK and anyone else at the club. If he doesn't want Wise/Jimenez/Vetere there, bin them.

If Nigel Pearson told me it was Tuesday, I'd go out and buy a calender. A £200 one.

All media outlets are reporting he's been sacked, which may be behind the wording of the statement. God I hope he stays.

I hope this is not a precursor to saying he's walked.

Kevin Keegan - Official NUFC Statement NEWCASTLE United can confirm that meetings between members of the Board and manager Kevin Keegan were held both yesterday and today. Kevin has raised a number of issues and those have been discussed with him. The Club wants to keep progressing with its long-term strategy and would like to stress that Kevin is extremely important, both now and in the future. Newcastle United values the effort and commitment shown by Kevin since his return to St. James' Park and wants him to continue to play an instrumental role as manager of the Club. For the avoidance of doubt the Club has not sacked Kevin Keegan as manager.

Can't they just pay £500m to the Premier League for the title, they can have an open top bus and it'll save us a load of pretence.

Don't think anyone would be daft enough to think any anger is going towards the players. For once, they're blameless and must all be pretty sick right now.

I hate that as well. I've just kept my mouth shut all day apart from to the people who actually give a shit.

Bring back Chris Mort. I'd have Chris Mort back at the club in a minute. Atleast he actually gave us some honest perspective of things that were happening, the connection with fans seemed to stem through him largely. Seemed a generally nice bloke and not a total money-grabber aswell. Llambias though, ffs. I still don't think i know what he looks like ffs. I liked Mort as well. He was big on communication with the fans (hence some of the lads from here, TF, .com etc going to meet him). No coincidence that the PR has been a shambles since he left.

The Trent needs to get some plastic glasses in.

Right now I feel like I could quite easily never go back. I know I will but fucking hell.

I'm clinging to the hope that they'll do what Hall did and talk him round/change their minds. Quite simply, they have to, for their own personal safety as much as anything. What was it Shepherd said about shooting Bambi? This is a million times bigger.

Keegan wanted 3 or 4 players. He got 2 - a kid and a loanee... Wise and Co were supposed to go out and sign players as per their job description but didn't deliver. A bollock was dropped and Wise is at least partly to blame. Isn't Wise's focus on the academy players? Pretty sure Jimenez and/or Vetere are the main transfer bods. Wise just seems an easy press target because of who he is. I don't really give a shit who's to blame but if them leaving will bring KK back, then their feet shouldn't touch the ground.

What happened to the quiet dignity of the older blokes going up to question KK about the sale of Andy Cole? Fucking Sky Sports. Can't see Ashley coming onto the steps to explain this one. Hasn't got the bottle.

yep. i'll feel worse when it's official, i'm still clinging on to that tiny bit of hope atm Me too. I can't see where I we go from here and I don't even want to. I don't want anyone else in charge. Given the rumour about Poyet both you and I may yet feel even worse! He's probably the one person who could stop me going back. I don't despise anyone more in football than that c***. Why is it that you despise him? 2000 FA Cup semi final. FYP Oh aye, fucking hell. What he said.
