  1. Hope this is his breakout year. If he doesn't prove that he's at least useful at the Premiership level this season, I think he'd very easily fade into obscurity.
  2. Is the Llambias theory right? Beginning to sound it. Llambias tried to fire KK, KK thought he was gone. Ashley found out and has now tried to get him back. What's the Llambias theory - I must've missed it................ What I said was a summing up of the Llambias theory as I understand it. Llambias needs to go if the theory's true, regardless of whether or not KK ultimately decides to stay. Never liked him anyway. Shocked how he hasn't reached out to the fans or made any sort of public statement at all throughout the entire summer. Perhaps we've just been spoiled by Mort.
  3. However, i will praise the fans at the ground. Good to see them showing support to Keegan. Hardly think you can slate people for over-reacting on this one. It was on basically every major domestic News outlet. Heck, I turned on the TV just to get away from this talk and lo and behold, BBC World is running a story on KK leaving all the way over here in South Korea. This was far form the s*** paper talk we usually get. Something clearly did happen.
  4. Can somebody give me a brief summary of Keegan's old walk-out? I think I was too young to know that England existed, never mind Newcastle, back when that happened.
  5. Still bricking it. Obviously Ashley and co. are trying to get him to change his mind and come back, but it's in no way clear that he'll listen. Definitely hope so though.
  6. I think it's fairly obvious that the scenario we've all been discussing is what actually happened. Keegan has major row with Wise/Jimenez/Lambias, walks out in a fit of fury, Ashley comes into the office and screams "WHAT THE FUCK HAVE ALL OF YOU JUST BEEN DOING!!" Gets on the phone and tries to get KK to come back. I'm not completely confident from the wording of that statement that they've actually succeeded in getting KK to take his job back. Still, feeling a damned sight better than I did an hour ago.
  7. As long as I'm watching football, I'm supporting Newcastle. Not sure I'll still be watching football if Keegan officially leaves.
  8. The club not issuing any sort of statement even till now is simply disgraceful. The crazy kids congregated outside SJP are YOUR PROBLEM. Deal with them as you will. Don't use it as an excuse to keep everyone in the dark.
  9. They're a bunch of wankers yes, but it's entirely the clubs fault for not issuing an official statement on the issue earlier.
  10. bugger this, I'm going to go have a pint and some food and come back. Hopefully by then they'll have put us out of our misery.
  11. Jesus, don't even want to know what the fat bastard is going to say.
  12. Only one who would pacify me. Him there are better managers out there.
  13. Right now I'm pretty much resigned to KK leaving, just don't want to see the words "Dennis Wise as interim manager" in the announcement.
  14. Call a big press conference on Keegans Future..... Keegan and Ashley sat side by side. Terry Mac brings in 2 pints of Broon Ale. KK and MA down pints in unison, stand up and walk out. Job done Doing this right now would be mint by the way.
  15. At this rate, that will probably happen sometime around January.
  16. That would truly show how horribly out of touch Ashley is. If we appoint those two i really expected to wake up and go "f*** THAT WAS SCARY" then go back to sleep Would honestly rather have a Souness-Roeder dream ticket. At least that would give me something to laugh about.
  17. That would truly show how horribly out of touch Ashley is.
  18. Felt that one of the strengths of the new regime has always been communication. I'll agree that the handling of this situation is abject though. Hopefully it's because they're still trying to convince him to stay.
  19. I suppose it's possible that he walked earlier this morning and Ashley and co. are on the phone begging him to come back? (hopes )
  20. I'm pretty sure everyone on here will be appalled regardless of who we get.
