Freddy Shepherd? NE5 Would go into meltdown having Ashley and Shepherd on the same board At least the old board vs new board bollocks would end. Everyone would be happy. praise jesus, i've seen the light. someone draw up a 'Freddie for MD!' banner right now

and if he's going to walk out over milner,smith and barton you have to question him. thats bloody ridiculous, if this is the issue he's not walking because of the quality/lack of quality of the players, he's walking because of the principle that players shouldnt be sold without his consent, i'd like to hear a convincing argument that this should be the case

anyone saying its the end for mike ashley is a bit short sited imo, IF they can work out their differences, all it would take would be a well worded statement from keegan and ashley to get everyone buying him pints again

have you considered that the club may not know if he's still going to be our manager or not tomorrow? Well in that case, why doesnt Keegan come and tell us what he's doing. We deserve answers. i cant argue with that, we'll just have to hope its sorted tomorrow and we find out asap. he does care about us though, dont worry about that.

The fact that there seems to have been two days of meetings with not much coming out makes me hope that things are really being sorted out. Hopefully KK is older and wiser now, and Ashley is a good enough businessman to know when he needs to compromise to keep a star man in his organisation. Conflict is normal in big business like this, it's how you work it through that decides if you'll be a success. exactly. this is how the world works. not, keegan wants to keep barton, ashley doesnt, so keegan must be sacked or resign. people are actually capable of reaching compromise through reason.

great post

how on earth can you possibly know that? this is a manager that rightly or wrongly, threatens to walk out when he doesnt get his way, he's done it here before, and his plan worked, what in the official statement makes you think it hasnt worked again?

oh look, what a surprise

there's no-one here that wants kk to stay more than me, but have a word

If there was nothing going on don't you think they'd come out and say so? i'm not suggesting there's nothing going on

anyone else starting to think we're not gonna get a statement from the club today? and does anyone think that had kk left, been fired, whatever, he would just come out and say so? he'll know how worried everyone is about it

praised their first managerial appoinment, praised the signings, he thinks they're doing a good job

i dont believe anything until its official, regardless of what i'd like the outcome to be, i'm sorry but you cant trust the word of the press alone

you're a season ticket? can my mate borrow you for the hull game?

gullem ballaugue (sp?) was just on ssn, he seemed to suggest this lad was a right winger, said something along the lines of valencia signed him because jouqain threatened to leave, but when he decided to stay they 'had 2 players for the right wing position so let him go'

all we need now is for someone to post a picture of some pennies falling into a glass of water and i'll throw my laptop out of the fucking window

so are we to believe that ssn are getting this statement before its on the website?

brown, mowbray and pulis all 50/1 first manager to go on betfair, gotta be worth a couple of quid

just laid another tenner at 1.09

wisest is he who knows he knows nothing

Where are these rumours? ssn and northern echo, apparently the people that bought man city tried to but newcastle first but ashley didnt want to sell Nothing to do with that. Davig Craig last night: "Newcastle fans may look at Manchester City tonight and feel dissappointed, but I understand that this won't be the last lot of Middle Eastern cash coming into the Premier League this season." why on earth, if true, would that lead to keegan leaving?

fucking hell man, craig says kk wasnt at training, then they show footage of him 'this morning at training, on the phone, deep in conversation' and its actually terry mac. so we're supposed to believe these people? and their 'highly placed sky sports news football sources' ? fuck off man

that may be 'news', and it may have been 'released', but its not 'official' and there are no 'quotes', therefore it means 'nothing'

hahahaha SSN 'he's looking a lone figure there' while showing footage of terry mac on his phone
