I'm quite warming to the idea of Howe now. Was a bit pissed off yesterday with the Emery rejection but he's obviously bottled it. I just hope there's plans yo bring in a DOF to work alongside Howe and they can plan for the transfer window. I think once Howe has taken training for a couple of weeks we'll start to see a difference on the field. The players are obviously unfit and can't last the whole 90 minutes thanks to Bruce's free days off. So anyway, just waiting for Howe to knock us back now

It's been well proven that Keegan's defence wasn't half as bad as most make out. As usual it's just lazy journalism. Yeah he liked to play attacking football but the defence wasn't too bad and I'd say if we had of had Schmichael in goal we'd have been a lot better

Rose tinted glasses man. Who else has served up better football for us then? Only Sir Bobby came close but Keegan took us on when we were totally shit. How can anyone have anything bad to say about Keegan?

Exactly. What the hell happened with Fonseca. At least he wants the job

How much longer can I go on supporting this car crash of a club. Yeah let's bring Howe in who'll inevitably get fucking homesick the first 3 months up here

Let's just see what happens tomorrow. Too many journos jumping to conclusions here

I couldn't tell you mate but he did like the drink

Just caught the tail end of the ssn breaking news. Apparently he needs a liver transplant

I've got my little girly knickers ordered in advance. Cheers for the heads up

I can't get my head around it tbh. I thought he'd at least have a bit money for transfers but he hasn't even got that. He's on a hiding to nothing

If Steve Bruce was half the manager these expert pundits would have us believe then we might have a few more points than we do, which in turn would have us relaxed knowing we have plenty time to get the right set-up in place. In reality though, we have 4 points in the league and already needing our first win asap. So I can understand some posters concerns. Saying that we have only played 9 games, leaving us with 29 left to play with the January window coming up. So any manager worth his salt could look at this and think 'no problem'. I think Rafa would be my first choice as he already knows most of the squad, as do they know him and I think we'd pick up points a lot quicker once Rafa got them up to speed again. If the consortium are wanting to bring in a DOF then things are different. I don't know how Rafa would feel about that and it could be a stumbling block. Also it would make more sense to bring in the DOF first and let them make the manager choice as they'll have to work together and it would be better if they've worked together before. It's pretty obvious that Rafa was their first choice and with him being at Everton it's thrown a spanner in the works. So it might take a bit more time than they'd have liked, but at the same time, they have to get it right first time or it just sets us back years. So we obviously will have to have a bit of patience and hope they get it right at the first attempt

I quite like seeing the new title

I think we should be able to get get a few decent loan signings in as the wages wouldn't be an issue like they were with Ashley

Is that per week or per day

I got that impression of him aswell

Can't understand how anyone could dislike Chris Kamara mind

All I can say is I'm pleased you're not in any way making decisions for the club

Most of these pundits just contradict themselves constantly. They just say what they think the majority want to hear not even thinking what shit they were spouting yesterday and go with the flow. You could easily tie them in knots if you could be arsed to argue with the brain-dead idiots

Aye, in BMI maybe

Season ticket holders would be the fairest way I'd imagine

Doesn't sound confuntible saying it mind

Think I'll change my username to Zorro Fonzarelli if he becomes our new manager

I hope it backfires on Ashley when he tries to set up his poxy business in Saudi. Would be brilliant to see the cunt lose many more millions through his own stupidity

Any fucker outside Newcastle now bud

I know Joelinton will miss me coz he misses absolutely everything haha
