Just watching that thinking of colo playing the Pistone role, but restraining kets at selhurst park in a few weeks.

Exactly, total show of Ashley's hand with this appointment. If it's a shocker or an average appointment people should be handing their season tickets back and voting with their feet because there is no excuse not to go out and get the best candidate we can. This is a real opportunity.

Fixed. Wenger comes here

We aren't actually or were actually ever going to hire carver though surely. Why say two games if so.. it was quite specific. If he was even in the running they would have just said he was caretaker without the timeframe. *clutching straws

It's going one of two ways here. We are going foreign or we are going complete car wreck uk coach. Karanka has hardy ruled himself out buy mclaren certainly has now. I think we are pretty much unanimously wanting and are ready for a foreign coach we are forgetting there is just as much probability Ashley and Co. Could pull out a foreign equivalent of David o leary or Lawrie Sanchez! I'd bloody love ketsbaia, got car crash written all over it but he is insane it would be a fun ride and at least exciting in comparison to the souless drivel we have been used to for too long.

For the love of God let these two games be the only two games they are in charge of.

Can't have the new coach coming in with unwanted distractions like a cup run. Need to focus all energy into finishing top 12.

Status quo then. We are in the carver army now..woah..

Lots of first dates but we rarely get past first base. Got some deep seated commitment issues. plenty of other years out there.

Thinking bout dem saved wages... Wish Hatem the best, really hope he somehow finds his potential. Special player who unfortunately looks to be heading to waste of talent scrap heap. Hopefully another change in environment can spur him on to getting back on track and not just odd flashes of himself.

I was going to say, he seems in the same mold as most of the top undersized strikers like Suarez and Aguero, just doesn't have the speed or explosiveness they do. yet

Yes. Probably with only two changes to the side. Haidara and willo in for dummet and saylor.

Simpson and Steele are both derby old boys. Would think you're right in Simpson certainly staying put. Steele has worked with mclaren at several places so could definitely see him coming. Would allow woodman to join Pardew and we would absolutely benefit, cracking reputation. Would be slightly worried about him keeping Carver on tbh. I'm hesitant with McLaren. He is hit and miss in his roles and hardly and inspiring choice from the average fan point of view. We have a real chance to heal some wounds, unite fans and inspire a brighter future. I don't think he is the man to inspire fans or has the personality. We could certainly do worse though, he is the best coach England has to offer. Apparently a few new quotes here about him not being interested with the newcastle job.. nowt new though or any real denial. http://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/Derby-County-Steve-McClaren-longer-flattered-big/story-25793559-detail/story.html

Into the window we go then. That's a striker completely out of the question now. Or does Streete finally get his chance. Good did just return from Injury In an ideal world we buy a decent CB and farm out Good, Satka and Streete to recallable loan stints.

Upside: won't need to worry about the distraction of an FA cup run after Laurel and Hardy cost us the game with their ineptitude again on Saturday.

Looks like he might get another chance with the new coach.. if said new coach wants him or our front office don't shift him asap which might well be the case given his previous history with staff and players. Either way, think he is still done here and has fallen into believing his and his agents own hype. his talent is undeniable, as is his harsh treatment by our regime. Like to think he would grab this extra final chance with both hands but Attitude maybe beyond repair, thought he was highly motivated to shove it down Pardews throat when he moved to Hull. Hasn't worked out. Fingers crossed he swallows some pride as does anyone else at the club with an issue. A fit and motivated Ben Arfa is in the clubs best interest.

Good god, imagine we actually get a coach that isn't stuck in the traditional british past and knows how to deal with flair players and form a creative free flowing team. Tbh I have seen very little from Cabella, but he looks like he could be useful when settled and given a chance with a coach that might know what he is doing.

It will be an almost unchanged side, which is why I posted the above. He won't want to make any changes at all, (Cisse aside) especially from a winning team. Plus as mentioned we just removed the focal part of a useless coaching set up with the other dead weight replacing the figurehead. Not a chance we will look any different. If anything I expect us to look worse today. Lots of players apparently somehow liked Pardew, think we Will be a bit down, complacent and turned over easily.

I hope that this is what you think Carver will go with? And not what you would pick... no I would have dropped colo for willo and Perez for riviere

Alnwick Taylor Coloccini Janmaat Dummett Tiote Sissoko Colback Armstrong Gouffran Perez

Jagshemash! Itz Niiiiceeeeee! Dressed up for the Pardews gone party?

Oh Alan Pardew.. You are sooooo last year.. Thank fuck.

You left out his quotes about SBR telling him he would be manager of Newcastle in the future. Hope he is out on his ear in a weeks time. Should have been the minute he starting ripping into his own fans.

Good god.. This isn't his first rodeo.. Or even first time as caretaker here. Press desperate to hype him up to get him hired so we are back in the news in another couple of months with everything falling apart.
