Stal Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Board Meeting at NUFC LC: we need to look at possible new managers. BM: I agree LC: although Steve has been tremendous BM: I agree LC: but it's my neck on the line too BM: I agree LC: So he has to go BM: I agree LC: Doesn't he? Or not? Erm...Graeme, do you have any recommendations? GC: How about we stick with Steve? BM:I agree LC: That is definitely an option. Any other suggestions though? GC: There are other managers out of work, what about Joe Kinnear, Lawrie Sanchez, David O'Leary, Paul Ince? BM: I agree LC: OK, definitely on the radar. The press and public seem to mention names like Rodgers, Moyes and Benitez. What about them? GM: Ooooooh, I wouldn't go for them. LC: Why not? GM: I don't have their phone numbers LC: F*ck! know anyone who does? SM: I do Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Can only think that they're 'preparing' paperwork to bin him now. He's definitely gone like. There wouldn't be a reason to postpone the press conference if they are sticking with him for a few days before eventually sacking him. Don't know how McClown can still be around people who he knows are going to fire hi. He should just walk up to them and ask to get fired! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I wanted to like him becase unlike Pardew and Carver he doesn't seem a total prick. Unfortunately it just hasn't worked. The game has passed him by it seems. He's far too afraid to make big changes and has only tried 2 systems all season. Why the hell have we never played a 433? It's been our best source of points in recent years and he hasn't used it once. I don't dislike him particularly, just lost all respect for him - what little I had - and no surprise that not many of the players seem to respect him either.

Benitez won't take the job unless he can have a decent say in what goes on. So unlikely he'll come here unless Fat Mike has totally capitulated on his shitty business model.

Well worth a shot, and it would allow Rafa to walk away if we get relegated and then we could install some championship cunt like Pearson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
