Imagine if JFK was your boss?

Jesus. I think we all know already this is going to turn out badly.

I will be surprised if Pardew stays - I very much doubt he will have been consulted in this. Reeks of a cunts trick to save money if you pardon my French.

1. Krul 2. Colo 3. Cabaye 4. Ben Arfa 5. Cisse Far too foreign for JFK.

If Pardew has any self-respect he will resign. Can be argued as constructive dismissal in a way. Did they not learn from KK? I guess not.

Coax Fash the bash out of retirement?

Pardew will no doubt be very unhappy with this and may even walk. In reality he has lost a lot of his power to a madman. Still, if he goes it is possible JFK may take over. Better the devil you know in this situation I think.

His record is there for all to see - poor. Won 5 out of 26 for us and sacked several times in the past for poor results (Doncaster, Forest etc.). He is deluded.

That's bullshit. Don't believe that for a second, not after they gave Carr such a long deal last year. 8 year contract?

Kill me now!

Revels in being dim?

For all his blather about being able to keep us up if it wasn't for his health he only won 5 out of 26 games. Must be an egotist - at his age and health problems he is a glutton for punishment. We will no doubt be punished too...

George Caulkin‏@CaulkinTheTimes4m JFK indelibly associated with arguably most toxic season in Nufc's history. If this is the answer, dread to think what the question was.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2008/oct/03/newcastleunited.premierleague What we can expect.

In three years we could be anywhere but more likely the Championship or lower the way things are going. Can't believe we almost made the Champions League the season before last.

3 years!!!!! Joe Kinnear tells Pete Graves that he has been offered a 3-year contract as director of football at Newcastle United. #nufc

Not crap/controversial enough?

So in effect will JFK be Pardew's boss?

http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-united-look-appointing-director-4325945 More of this to come...

Mark Douglas‏@MsiDouglas6m Am stunned. Absolutely stunned. What does it mean for AP? How can man out of the game for 4 years relate? #nufc

Time to close this thread?

Everyone seems to be in a state of shock - journalists included indicating what a monumentally stupid decision this is.

With a bullet?

Would even a League Two team bring in Kinnear? I would argue no. Clear nepotism at the deteriment of the club imo.

Papiss might be in for a shock.
