more substance than that redknapp article thats for bloody sure... still jose though

shame... but brought it on himself ...JOSE IN

im pissed

no IT HAS to jose ... the owner is no fool , he's sat with the crowd, he knows what jose has done, he has the money to pay him, robsons told jose how he would be idolised, he's told him how difficult it is to do it... its nailed as jose .. surley it has to be

Lets say theres an £8mill offer a year to Mourinho on the table with large bonuses, 4 year contract, large transfer kitty promised (eg £50-60mill a season for the next 4 years, plus more if we can land a huge name). Would Jose turn that down? Would that be enough to get us back into challenging for a CL spot? Would Ashley be willing to fork out that much? Noone knows except them. Its very unlikely we'd land him, but theres no denying that money talks. Im sure everyone has a price, and if you look at all the factors, what does he have to lose realistically? He's only in his mid 40s - failing up here would not ruin his career, especially with our reputation of being perennial losers, such a failure could just be one blemish on an otherwise distinguished career (who cares about Lippi failing at Inter for example?), a career that still has a long way to go if he chooses. And im pretty sure he was fed up at Chelsea a while back because of the lack of recognition of his success due to big money spending at a time when noone else was able to compete - now the situation is totally different in terms of spending power, and if he wants a challenge where success would prove his class... Tiny, tiny chance, but its not pie in the sky stuff, because who's to say that £2million extra a year in his pocket wont make a massive difference to his options? When he joined chelsea what were they? nowt, crap, shite, only a fucking rack of money ... what do we have?.... nowt, we're crap, we're shite,? ...we have an owner who is RICH who craves success as we do jesus man he should love to come here, he would be a fucking proper god, not a god to fucking shit chelsea fans, but to the whole of the north east! it has to be jose

Pearson OUT .. McDermot OUT

all fingers points to ONE man

im a little bit tipsy now, but anyone else and i will be very very very upset

exaclty i had heard in the past the redknapp loves it daarnn saaarf ... why the fuck would he want to come up here? ... portsmouth are very well off and arent exactly sunlun'

"Should Newcastle fail to lure Redknapp, Blackburn's Mark Hughes and even Jose Mourinho may be alternative targets." fucking bollocks.... jose as an alternative??!?!?!?!!!!! ... he should slap him in his fat face for even considering him as an "Alternative"

jose gut feeling .. in the bag

the only way sam would leave on a mutual basis, is if he thought someone better than him was put in place... who does he idolise? ...mouriniho ashley knows, for fuck sake, we arent going to be happy with anyone else but him... is he really going so stupid to let himself sit in the stands after he's appointed, maclaren, rednap, hughes? bollocks, this guy wants sucess, he has the money, he wants jose

the hardest job in football ... the chosen one can't refuse it surely

it wont be Harry, he gets a nose bleed when he has to travel further north than watford gap

once the point, he'd only be bypassed on the field anyway

drugs?

hasnt keegan already said he werent going back into management?

"Creative talent"? Where? we have it's just not very evident at the minute ..because it's being stiffled by negative football Who has it then in our squad? emre zog milner duff martins all have talent just cant see it at the minute

a mike ashley purchase

at least we haven't spent 35 million stick, purely because i theres no one else

are you not just resigning to the fact that sams tactics are woefully inept and should probably go? Dont get me wrong i would love him to do well and add stability to the club, but he is doing this to himself... his tactics have been baffling

Funny how how best defensive records came under how most attack minded manager isn't it? best form of defence is attack... keeping the ball as far away from our net as possible, but just not in the carpark where geremi seems to hoof it

"Creative talent"? Where? we have it's just not very evident at the minute ..because it's being stiffled by negative football

how can anyone justify such negative football ... we have creative talent in our squad which is being told to stop being creative because he's scared of conceding goals... this is obviously rubbing off on the players

he's got "quality" players at his disposal 2 players for every position... 5 forwards ... hows giving him more money for more players going to help when he cant even get the players to play football ... like radio newcastle said, the players are losing their ability to play football.... that is down to coaching and tactics... no amount of cash or patience will change that
