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.

@WhoScored: Charlie Austin: Has directly contributed to more of his team’s goals (54.8%) than any other player has in the PL this season

Hope we get Austin. Richards would be a good signing IF we keep Janmaat as well.

Don't even joke about it ffs

Holland-USA 1-1. Poor defending from Janmaat for the USA goal.

What's sad is people thinking Ashley would change his ways and make an exciting, inspiring appointment.

The brolly

From what I've seen they at least keep the ball on the deck. No hoof ball.

Palace fans think that Pardew is God and that he plays vibrant attacking football! He's been there for 10 minutes though.

Keith Downie ‏@SkySports_Keith Steve McClaren is edging closer to becoming Newcastle Head Coach following talks with the St James Park Board - before going on holiday.

Great news. Fucking crook.

Snob

I guess it comes down to what you want. Do you want to be able to support your football team or do you want the club to crash and burn? I prefer the former, as my view is that Ashley will be here for as long as he wants to. He will fuck off one day, and then I'd prefer to be in the PL rather than League 1.
