What is the reason for thinking Shearer could be the answer? It is emotional bullshit. He's steeped in Newcastle, fair enough, but for fuck's sake, Gareth Southgate was a great player, and what has he done for Boro? Would it have made any difference if he was a born smoggie? Emotional appointments are risky as fuck. Appoint someone who has a clear and demonstrable track record which suggests they may be able to actually do the job. Appointments based on sentiment strike me as the absolute last thing Newcastle need.

Forgive me if I'm blundering amateurishly in to a china shop whilst dressed like a bull - I'm an ignorant outsider - but surely, surely the appropriate thing for Ashley to do right now would be to send that fucking anachronism on legs Kinnear back to whence he came, and appoint Steve Bruce. Leave aside all the shit about him being a Geordie (and, quite frankly, who fucking cares, it has ZERO relevance), but he's got a fucking good record, and is more than a little bit tasty in the transfer market. Forget suggestions like luring away Mourinho or similar - it will not happen - but make a sensible, long term appointment. Looking at Kinnear now, it is quite clearly only going to end up in one place - a bad place, and every month he spends in the job is a month wasted.

Just spotted at Birmingham airport.

What do the Spurs ITKs say? Are they all agreed on something?

We were linked with him in the last window. It was a bad, bad time.

Mind you, about 500 away fans today. That'd take a bit of getting used to

N'Zogbia was with the Wigan team at the New Hall Hotel in Sutton Coldfield last night / this morning. He's doing a great job, Bruce. Unbelievable to see a team time waste as much as they did today, though. i guess that comes with the territory of being in the upper echelons for a spell. I suspect Bruce will get good things out of him.

We only got a point today, but we played very, very well indeed. Carew looked good when he came on, too, which was very nice to see. Rob Styles is without a doubt the worst referee I've seen in 30 years plus of watching football. He just consistently gets things wrong, and has that Uriah Rennie narcissism thing going on.

On the pitch at Fratton Park week in, week out is a lot better than on the bench at Tottenham, though

Has this been posted 100 times before? Possibly but hey ho. The Redknapp flowchart. http://s3.amazonaws.com/twittypic/wordpress/cache/f88f8182df3f9a1299bef93628c8505a.jpg

Ha ha ha. Spurs ITKs call emergency conference. http://flann4.files.wordpress.com/2007/10/strangelove.jpg

7m or 10m plus Shorey, I reckon He's cack. I think he's one of those players who can't cut it when taken out of his familiar safety zone (ie Reading). Where would Zoggy play if you signed him? He is a shocking LB and Young is 100 times the player. I don't know where he'd play which is why I doubt there is any truth in this story.

I didn't say that. I said what Spurs need now is someone who knows how to coach the best out of the players they've got (you've got some very good players), not someone who falls back on the chequebook. And yes, MON did spend money in the summer, but he's also a good coach. That's where I think Redknapp fails.

You're probably right. I'm backing Tony Adams to get the best out of him. :lol: i meant its testament to your coach's the form of the like sof milner and knight. I know, I was just having a cheap dig at Tony Adams. I preferred him when he was on the sauce.

Aaron Lennon reminds me very, very much of Tony Daley.

mackems.gif mackems.gif mackems.gif mackems.gif Being fair KD, he was good tonight I thought, I don't rate the two mentioned either really. I think it's time to put a bid in for Kranjcar. Have you seen Lennon this season? he's been immense. When Kaka says that Pennant is a better "footballer" then him, i somewhat see his point (altough i completely disagree with it), but his point becomes void when he also states that he's also a better "footballer" then Milner. By using the term footballer, i assumed he was basing his judgement on technique alone but then Milner is twice the player Pennant is, when it comes to that. I am now 100% convinced you don't even watch football games. Milner better technique than Jermaine Pennant. God have mercy on you for such profanity! :lol: That is a shcocking statement. Milner has been superb the last 3 or 4 games for us. Read into that what you will.

Well it's lucky that you're not a fan then. Your club is doing good this season so enjoy it while it lasts. I'm enjoying it very much, ta. Just commenting on Harry's approach to management. Don't think our good season impinges on my ability to comment on matters elsewhere, tbh.

I love the way Spurs seem to think the way to success is to just frantically sign more players, endlessly. At some point, good coaching comes into it. Sadly, Harry is the kind of manager who will go for the frantic spending in the vain hope it pays off eventually, rather than working on coaching what he has to do the best they can. When he said last week he was as good a coach as MON and (I think) Fergie, I almost spat a kidney out. He's the archetypal cheque book manager, and he's now at a club who will go along with that strategy. I genuinely struggle to think of a worse pairing. Look at recent goings on, resigning Defoe and Chimbonda and talking about re-signing Keane. That doesn't even look like inspired signing, it looks like bewilderment to me. I hate the media love Spurs get, it is totally uncalled for, but I have no innate dislike for the club. If I were a Spurs fan right now, I would be very, very worried indeed.

Those who watch the reserves rave about him.

Incidentally, I'd like to tip my hat to Zat Knight, who was superb yet again this evening. Fuck knows what we could do if we started playing as well as we are capable of.

That's how we play away from home. Is that six away league games won in a row? It obviously works. Incidentally, no John Carew for 3 months, no Wilfred Bouma for the entire season, and Martin Laursen out for 2 months now. Why doesn't playing shit away from home work for us? We were poor in the second half, but I never thought for a nanosecond that we wouldn't win. I just don't feel that way. And I'm a relatively cynical type

If we beat Pompey and Albion beat Man U by 15 goals, I think we could go top. FUCKING STRIPEYFILTH CUNTS
