Big Geordie Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Ashley will panic at some point, but as with the appointment of Shearer back in 2009 - it will come too late. He still pulls all the strings at this football club - make no mistake. Charnley is just his latest Pardew (front man) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest chopey Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 We need a Keegan type manager to come in at this late stage and inspire the team to victories I don't think there is anyone out there to do that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 We need a Keegan type manager to come in at this late stage and inspire the team to victories I don't think there is anyone out there to do that Bar Keegan who would never come back, whilst Ashley is in charge. I suggested it last night among my mates on FB, and was laughed at. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Hog Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 That's what everyone said the last two times Yep, and they're still right. The amusing thing for me is that if a miracle happened and Ashley managed to get Kev back it would give Ashley the chance to repair his relationship with the fans once and for all. Personally I could forgive him all of his mistakes as owner, it's his treatment of Keegan and how it ended last time that makes me unable to fully take him in to the fold of our club as it stands.

Guest Hog Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Keegan is a none starter. Shelve the past. I don't doubt it, it's a fantasy really but he is exactly what this club has needed for a very long time. It's just a shame that he will never get the chance again.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Presumably Keegan doesn't want to manage any more, or he would've gone somewhere else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Keegan then. But I'm afraid he has been away too long to get to grips with how the game is now. Don't believe that. Remember, football is a simple game made complicated by fools like McClaren. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattoon Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Trouble is Keegan is one of a kind where Newcastle United are concerned, he was literally the perfect fitting glove, it'll always feel like he has unfinished business here and that's what's frustrating.

Rocker Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 He needs to go. We're an absolute shambles and it's clear that away from home, the players turn up knowing they'll get beat. Our mentality for away games is a major concern, something which has been going on for years. I can't remember going into an away game with any sort of confidence.

Hughesy Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 What's ridiculous in keeping McClaren is that even if he keeps us up.. Does anyone think it's going to be any different next season? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 If McClaren is to go it will be down to Ashley - there is no way that Charnley will sack him. The Chronicle only know what those at the club tell them and none of them will have a clue on what Ashley will do next. And even if Ashley is saying one thing, he is just as likely to do the opposite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 The Wongees will only start to get angry after the Sunderland match so he's got 3 more fairly pressureless games before then even if one is against AFCB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 They're too stubborn to sack him especially as they won't dare provide the environment for a decent manager to operate. They also won't want to deal with the financial compensation that come with sackings. If think we're royally screwed basically Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completely agree mate but the "board" and owner are too entrenched in their deluded beliefs that their systems work. They've been failing year on year, same old s*** time and time again. I just can't see them hooking McClaren and making the necessary changes to allow a proper manager to operate. They're clueless clowns and too stubborn/arrogant to admit they're wrong.
