I think it has to be a Shearer/Keegan double effort if Keegan is to come back. Can't see it working with just Keegan.

If Hughes is the leading candidate then we are fucked.

Don't want Hughes. Would rather have a foreigner or Shearer.

Yup, noticed that too.

Great interview. Lets hope he delivers.

So says the back page of the Mail tomorow I'm told. Apparently it says Shearer will be offered the job with Keegan arriving as a coach/assistant manager. EDIT: Link to the article - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/sport/football.html?in_article_id=507894&in_page_id=1779

Disgraceful display today. The players should be ashamed.

Milan, Barca or Newcastle? Where would you go? It's nothing but a fantasy to think Mourinho would come here.

What about Rafa? Surely if they lose today he's in real trouble.

Harry said he turned down our offer.

Niether was Keane, Klinsmann or Van Basten. I know it's a leap of faith, but supposedly we're after an experienced manager, that's all I mean. And Keane, yes, great - proof that having an iconic leader of men doesn't equate to greatness in the dugout. I'm going a bit off topic here but I think Keane has done very well at Sunderland. 18 months ago they were in the Championship relegation zone and he turned it round, got them promoted and has them putting up a decent fight in the Premiership. You have to consider as well that he only has a limited amount of pulling power seen as Sunderland is not the place most young players want to move too, would rather be in London or a big city.

This post is on the presumption that the top Europeon managers are unwilling to come or the board aren't interested in them. In my opinion the only British manager able to get us successful is Shearer. Everyone now knows any other club manager would just be 2nd choice. They would not have the fans backing and would not last out next season unless they provided fairly instant success (like europeon football). Whether it's right or wrong Shearer will be the only one given a chance by the fans and as we all know as soon as the fans go against you then you have a major problem in this club. He's not my first choice, I'd rather have a European manager, but I think we have a better chance of becoming successful again with Shearer than we do with someone like Mark Hughes.

Atleast January should be fun with Harry being known to love his wheeling and dealing.

HUGE sidestep.

10.5m for a player woh's contract is up in 6 months?

Better option than some people we've been linked with but I get the feeling he had taken Spurs about as far as he could.

No better than Allardyce and when was the last time they scored at home?

Pssst...Don't want to rain on the whole Keegan for DoF parade but he says he hasn't watched a game of football live since he left his last job, surely that would a problem for a DoF.

Nobody knows.

8-0 to us.

Is there anyone good enough who's foreign? Who's out there? Klinsmann, Lippi and Mourinho all far better qualified than any British candidate.

Nobody good enough at the minute who's British.

Mourinho obviously the best candidate out there. No idea who else I'd want.
