Both would be fine.

Why?

This

Good.

Aye, that's a strange one... We don't sack managers though. Guess that's the point. Unsackable.

Aye, that's a strange one...

"We recognise supporters' strong desire to win a trophy, an ambition which the Club now shares as Mike Ashley made clear in his comments on the final day of the season. Steve is excited by this and he has our full support in trying to achieve this goal." didn't share it before then

"Steve has been tasked to secure a top-eight finish in the Premier League and he is also heavily incentivised to try to win a cup competition."

3 year deal. That's good.

noticed that too

Is there any other club acting like this?

Agreed, it's not thad bad. And besides, does it really matter? I enjoy watching U21 games and games in smaller European leagues where the quality is shite compared to the Premiership. Watching football is not solely about the quality of the football on show, of course.

Lee Charnley said it ages ago. Hence head coach and not manager. He'll have a say, just not the final say.

Oh look at me, I rest my drinks on articles about how great we are. No need to cherish the moment, it's just another Tuesday round my way. It does look a bit staged.

If you weren't worried about it you're not normal IMO. I wasn't tbh. Never thought it was possible that an idiot who lost 8 on the spin would ever be trusted with the job. Really? Well I did say it plenty of times in this thread. You did. Never got how you could be so sure of him not getting the job. Glad you were right

Get in!

Phew. Didn't really think they'd get Bielsa but all this talk got me nervous.

Very good if true.

Incoming Newcastle United boss Steve McClaren looking to add to backroom staff John Carver's future is a big issue to be resolved and Steve McClaren could even consider Steve Black, Newcastle-born psychologist http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/incoming-newcastle-united-boss-steve-9413587

He's coming back from holiday tomorrow according to the Chronicle.

Possibly, but it lasted like a year or two max at his absolute peak. Agreed.

Maicon was brilliant, when at his best he was better than Alves IMO.

Couldn't it be Eric Steele? Considering Woodman is apparently leaving for Palace.
