JoeyBartoon Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I can imagine the slack jaws talking to SSN now. "When we get shearer we're gonna win the league, ya nar!" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Shearer not approached and they do not want a foreign manager. Redknapp? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Sky report they have been told by NUFC that we aren't looking for a foreign coach and NUFC know who they want. It better not be McLaren! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davy_fulla Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Hitzfeld being quoted 10-1 with Ladbrokes. Had to look as I did put money on him when the post Souness campaign kicked off. Think he's a bit of a non-runner now so surprised to see him at a relatively short price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quailman Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Has to be a big name manager for me! Not McLaren Not Shearer! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davy_fulla Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I can imagine the slack jaws talking to SSN now. "When we get shearer we're gonna win the league, ya nar!" You can see it now can't you? They always catch some charva outside the box office who just can't help talking shite. Think Shearer would be mad to take this just yet. It would make a Hollywood script if he came and done the business but it would be so easy for him to fail and people to turn against him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisJbarnes Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 i cant actually believe we would sack someone right now unless theres someone there. i trust ashley and mort because as of yet they are yet to fuck up, however the fans are really now an issue. that poll said 50% of fans wanted sa fired, but it seems most want him back now he is fired. why oh why is he gone? i cant honestly think of anyone who would want the job now, and indeed anyone who i belive could do a better job? sam had success at bolton. i genuinely believe that if jose came here he would be shit. in the meantime, itll be one of shearer, jol, redknapp Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bodson Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Maybe Ashley wants his own Grant so he can be the puppet master and play real life FM with NUFC. McLaren then.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gggg Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Mourniho if not Lippi. Other wise stickit with Pearson. Pearson it is then. I don't know why people think those two will join a midtable club with a habit of not winning anything and sacking managers when they could choose any club in the world. Lippi has said many times he will never manage in England because he doesnt speak the language. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hakka Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Another big question could be, "why now?" Don't know. Why not last week? why not end of season if things haven't worked out? the timing suggests to me they plan to get another man in asap so he can spend to put things right. I'm guess Sam has gone for one of these reasons... 1. He's lost the plot infront of Mort and Ashley over buying players cause of the African Cup, despite him knowing that this would be coming last Summer. 2. He's lost the players in a massive row, perhaps transfer requets have been slapped in behind the scences. 3. Perhaps Oliver was right, a big name has offered to take over and it was too irresistable chance to miss. 4. They firimly believe Sam is not he man given recent form. I can't really think of much else, but I'm hoping its number 3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guinness Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 No one British, I don't see how were going to improve on Allardyce with that policy making this decision even more baffling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider Jerusalem Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Would Like - Houllier or Lippi Most Likely - Shearer or Jol End Up With - McClaren, Pearce or Pearson *EDIT* - whoever it is I at least hope they take a long hard look at the 'coaching' staff as well.
