Ally Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Definitely Craig Hope. Used to work at NUFC and has been very critical in the Mail recently. Good on him for confronting it, Lee Ryder would never dare Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 That for me is a sign of someone who knows his job is on the line to get into petty little squabble with a journalist. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Which article was McClaren referring to? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roger Kint Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Benitez, Pellegrini, Rodgers, Moyes, Rudi Garcia.... some big names being linked, I hope there's some truth in there. It went well in January when so many good managers were linked You're forgetting the erection-inducing summer recruitment drive spanning 80+ candidates. Considering the 80 candidates bollocks was in January i doubt it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Eddie Howe must be loving this, McLaren has to go closely followed by Charnley . I'm all for promoting people but these two were bag carriers for their former bosses and got there jobs through pure luck and now we are in so much shit because of their ineptitude Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I hope since he's grown a pair and defended himself against someone who has been slamming us for weeks that it translates to having balls with his tactics and team selection at the weekend.

Joe_F Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Which article was McClaren referring to? The one that said he'd lost the players and they expect him to be sacked if we lose tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Banaloona Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Got to be an ounce of truth to the article otherwise McClaren would not have lost his rag. In fact he openly admits there is truth pertaining to the article albeit "half truths" whatever that means. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Definitely Craig Hope. Used to work at NUFC and has been very critical in the Mail recently.

Wallace Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 "As things stand, the board at St James’ Park appear to be paralysed by a fear that sacking McClaren would make things worse for a side that are second from bottom in the Premier League table." How could things be worse? And this is why the club is in the mess it is - terrified to make a decision in case it is the wrong one. They are never proactive and always wait until it is too late to have an effect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ_NUFC Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 The former England boss said: “It's done by a journalist who for the last 18 months has written nothing but negative things about Newcastle, a journalist who used to work at this club and who four or five years ago was released from this club.” After McClaren concluded the press conference he was told by the reporter: “Don't you dare accuse me of having an agenda. “You are second bottom of the league. Is this your latest excuse? You're the problem not me. “Walk away Steve, smile, grin. He has been out of depth since the moment he walked in.” Kudos to Hope. But in the future I will look upon these quotes as the precise moment I began absolutely fucking hating McClaren. Sold his soul to the regime just like Pardew and now is trying anything and everything to save his fucking job. Get the fuck out of here you charlatan.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I'm personally hoping they stick with him to ensue relegation. This lot and those mugs who keep going deserve to crash and burn. Popcorn time when it happens for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordiesteve710 Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Definitely Craig Hope. Used to work at NUFC and has been very critical in the Mail recently. Good on him for confronting it, Lee Ryder would never dare 'Which one of you is Hope?' 'Well it's not f***ing you, Steve'. As for Craig Hope, after his brilliant piece on Pav and now this he is fast becoming one of my favourite journalists. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
