Guest nufc_geordie Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Just thinking about our present situation it is entirely feasible that Ashley/Mort will knock on the doors of Blackburn and Portsmouth respectively and be told in no uncertain terms to get lost. If this happened would the appointment of Martin Jol be that bad? Personally I would have him as my no. 1 choice. He took a struggling Spurs squad and turned it into comfortably the best of the rest. they easily finished 5th twice in a row and almost pipped Arsenal into fourth in one of those campaigns. he plays an expansive attacking game with pace and flair, and at Newcastle he should be able to run things the way he wants, without a director of football making transfers for him. I for one would certainly like to see this route pursued! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PRL Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Think it’s a bit harsh to blame Jol for what went wrong money-wise. From the sounds of most reports Commoli was the one that spunked the money up the wall, not Jol. My fear with Jol would be his tactical naivety – he had an awful record against the top 4.

Guest nufc_geordie Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Did he really spend the money though or was that Arneson and Commolli running the show. Either way his appraoch to coaching and team performance seem to be along the lines we as Newcastle fans would like to see! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guinness Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Wouldn't be wholly against it, but just like everyone else we've been linked with serious questions about Sam's sacking would have to be asked if we were to end up with Jol. Out of the people we are being linked with Martin Jol actually looks a quite attractive proposition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I'd take Jol over Redknapp any day. As far as I understand it the bad transfer decisions were not Jol's fault. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
