Robster

Lampard was basically locked in a tug of war between Chelsea and Inter Milan all summer. I cant for the life of me think that Keegan was stupid enough to think he could tempt him up here.... Plus he mustnt have seen that picture of him in the pink vest

Anyone know if Mark Hughes had anything to do with the Robinho signing or did the Arabs just do it off their own back and just tell him what was going on ?

That's the most shocking quote. Real Madrid ?

When Ashley finally stepped in and decided to get rid of Allardyce, once he made his decision of who was going to get the job, us fans thought that at long last, we might have a bit of long term stability. What we are seeing today is not only a reaction to our favourite player/manager leaving AGAIN, but also a reaction to discovering that the club is no different to what it was under the previous regimes and its revolving door policy with managers.

I just want to see the man stand in front of a camera and explain to us exactly what his vision is for the future. We cant go on much longer having a leader that doesnt communicate with us

Maybe Kevin saw Man City chancing their arm at Ronaldinho a few weeks ago and thought we could compete for him.

Hearing thick footballers threatening to get his mates to beat up other thick footballers isnt my idea of a great read. What a fucking cunt.

Best of luck to the lad. He deserves to be playing for a better run club than this.

Ha ha. http://www.thegeordieconnection.com/ And he has the gall to call ANYONE an embarrassment. Fucking hell never seen that before mackems.gif Jesus Christ nor me. How up his own arse is he ??

This might be totally random but is it possble that it all centred around one of our lads being transferred to another club and being forced on them and another unsuspecting manager ? Kevin might have been standing up for the player knowing that the move was totally unfair on him and his career. Is it just clever use of words that he doesnt refer to Newcastle United or himself in any specific way.... or is that just the legal way of putting the statement out ?

Read that too quick and read that first line as "Have experience of him and his complete cock"

Would this not therefore suggest that something else has happened. Something that will never get spoken of ?

Perfect start for any new manager coming in. Ironically quite the opposite to what Kevin had

Just been reminded of the next few fixtures on SSN. Cant help but feel that if KK had still been in charge, we could have had a cracking next few weeks

Why didnt he bring him in last time then? For that I havent got an answer. Just have a feeling and think that one of the best candidates for the job is someone who knew this position was going to be coming up sometime in the near future and was fully aware of the set up. I know I am being very cynical towards Ashley and its unfair.

wish they hadnt all been so fucking smug about it all though

Is it just me that has a sense that Mike Ashley has had someone waiting in the wings ever since he took over the club.

On the grand scheme of things this doesnt even appear on the radar but I have cancelled SkySports tonight.

I actually feel like crying reading these posts

I think you DEFINITELY need to change your signature.

Feeling very empty. Combination of feeling crushed that Kevin has gone and immense embarassment. The whole country just fucking laughing at us again. Something new has to happen now though. Ashley has to speak publicly and on TV. No way can he avoid not talking about what has happened. He cant get away with just issuing web site statements.

I had a couple of pints at lunch, not sure how this afternoon is going to work out. Does that mean you are NUFC's Chief Communications Officer ?

Its frighteningly embarrassing. This whole episode is showing them up for what they really are

I only hope its not going to end in a parting of the ways because the delays are allowing the anger and frustration to build and build. The longer the silence goes on, if the decision goes against what most people want, its going to be chaos. At least if they had made a decision on Wednesday, it would have contained it all within that 24 hours and would have kept what anger there was to a minimum. If it was going to be a parting, couldnt Ashley/the club have just made a statement immediately saying that they had parted and that a compensation deal was being sorted out? You dont have to agree the compensation before you make a statement do you ? More clutching at straws I know

Its because its all gone quiet at the club, they are desperate to keep the story running so are just making up the expected stories. How to write a player revolt story is on page 666 of the tabloid writers bible under the chapter heading "Manager and owner dont get on"
