Dave Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 There is no chance Hughes would reject it if offered, he's clearly frustrated by a lack of funds at Blackburn. I'd almost rather Shearer, so much of professional sport is about confidence and he would instill more in a Newcastle squad. Like he used to do with our wingers who didn't pass to him? It was their job, to be fair. He often did his part. Did he ever 'thank' anyone after scoring (in celebration), or give one of the aforementioned wingers a gee-up? Just remember him shouting like fuck at them tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest elbee909 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Keegan is a husk. Bereft of life, he rests in peace. An ex-manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 As I've said before, a Blackburn fan I work with reckons Hughes is earmarked for the Man U job but what the timescale on that is debatable. I'd expect Taggart to do at least 2 or 3 years more and maybe then Queroz would have a go. That makes this possibility similar to the Mackems in that they don't seem to mind Keane being talked of for the Man U job as that would mean he'd done well for them. I'd be reasonably happy with Hughes - not ecstatic but it could be a lot worse. Part of me do does recognise what Wullie says about Keegan/Shearer and I agree it would generate excitement but I still have a nagging "it won't work" feeling.

Alberto2005 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Shearer did have an influence on the team but that doesn't have to come vocally, his sheer presence on the pitch and how he played on the pitch would have influenced the players around him, obviously been a manager you can't give that presence or example.

Nate Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 There's a long, long list of managers i would rather we turn to before Shearer, but when we're talking about someone like Hughes - who is still relatively inexperienced and unproven (especially with money) himself - i think hiring Shearer would be preferable purely because he would have the fans and dressing room united behind him, that's something we have not had for a long time.
