Anon Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 As a man, McClaren is liked and admired by Charnley, Graham Carr, the chief scout and Bob Moncur, the club ambassador and there is considerable sympathy for the position of a coach who took training on Tuesday morning and is due to repeat the exercise on Wednesday morning.

Ketsbaia Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 That Guardian piece sounds fairly positive overall, even if we have to wait a few days. Shame I don't believe it. What? It reads to me that it's almost certain that McClaren will remain in place and they're posturing about sounding out other candidates which are very unlikely to want to come here and work under this mess of a setup. The soul searching and willingness to change things up is just laughable - they are as arrogant as they are ignorant. No way are they capable of such self-reflection, no way. To me, it just looks like he's the ultimate fall-back option because they know it's their last chance to get that TV money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually feel a bit sorry for him if all this is true[emoji38] Sort of this. He looks broken lately and now being undermined by the club. If they fail to replace him how are the players meant to respect him? I can't believe he hasn't walked. It's fairly degrading not to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I don't feel sorry for him one bit. He's not an outright cunt like Pardew or Carver, certainly, but he's a complete and utter pansy who lacks the honour to do the decent thing and walk, as was the case with the England job. Pussies like that deserve the humiliation that invariably comes their way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 One thing about Rafa is that he has worked at some incredibly difficult clubs with dubious owners/presidents operating difficult setups at times. I;m in no doubt he could work with these cunts, but he won't last long. I'm not so sure he would work as an interim manager either as his results at Chelsea were mixed. His methods and coaching take time to sink in. The club don't have that time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhoywhonder Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 http://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/mar/08/newcastle-steve-mcclaren-clings-job-rafael-benitez?CMP=share_btn_tw Mike Ashley, the owner, will not sanction a change unless the new appointment is a definite “upgrade” on McClaren. The board are believed to want to hire a replacement capable of exciting deeply disgruntled supporters and have effectively ruled Nigel Pearson, the former Leicester manager and Harry Redknapp out of the running. Who actually believes this horsesh*t? I couldnt care less about being excited by the club and haven't for some time. Supporting NUFC isn't about entertainment anymore, its a chore, a boring obligation to sit through now and again. Grind out 10 unwatchable 1-0 wins, we can talk about excitement another time....
