jong24 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Pretty sure Shearer won’t be shit as a manager. A lot of football management is man management (not all of it, but a fair bit). I reckon Shearer will be able to motivate players, in a similar way to Keegan did. Also players have respect for the guy. Put that in the mix with he’s one of us, he bleeds black and white, and I think he’ll be okay. I’m not saying he’ll win anything, just expect him to be a decent manager when he eventually turns his hand to it. In my eyes Shearer is a bit like Roy Keane, similar type of character, passionate, you’d really want to play for the guy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

magorific Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 ANAL ;D http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/nufc/newcastle-united-news/2008/01/12/the-man-from-pompey-he-says-no-72703-20343038/ Sorry if posted before, but this - and I have the paper in my hand - is what AO went with originally today, before Harry went on SSN: TAKE IT AS RED Harry set to be new United boss after getting his family's approval * Harry Redknapp will tie up his switch to Newcastle United – after getting the go-ahead from his family to make the move from the south coast to Tyneside. Sources in Portsmouth say that Redknapp’s wife Sandra is his rock and major decisions are always taken in consultation with her and his sons Mark and Jamie – the former Liverpool, Spurs and England international. I am one of the few journalists to have spoken to Harry in the last 24 hours, and he could not have been more professional, insisting he was focusing on Portsmouth’s game with Sunderland at the Stadium of Light tomorrow. But when I put the phone down I had a distinct feeling that I had been talking to the next manager of Newcastle United. And Harry did tell me: “Whatever I do I have got to make sure my two dogs are OK.” I believe those two bulldogs will soon be running along the beach at Tynemouth instead of the south coast where the Redknapp family are housed in one of the most exclusive estates in the country.

Numbers Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I honestly cant believe they booted sam out without a plan...that really sucks tbh,thought that was the only possibility. Fuck knows where we go from here,Shearers not the answer though..not for a good while yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NG32 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 James has gone very quiet now we know that Harry has spoken to Mort. Not a kneejark reaction at all is it. We look ffucking stupid sacking a second tier english manager and approaching another and getting the knoack back. Where do we go from here?, fuck knows. I cant take much more of these hits & I hate seeing NUFC look stupid or dragged through the mud. It really hurts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Problem is, who on earth can we get now? Anyone we approach will know they are at best second choice so i certainly think you can rule any of the big names out. It shows getting rid of sam was done without sounding out a replacement too.

Guest interceptor Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 What a total and utter cock up by the board! It wasn't difficult - they should have had a definite replacement to take the job before they sacked Big Sam. Now they're scrabbling around trying to find someone who won't be their first choice. The time in this transfer window is rapidly running out and the list of candidates that are left fill me with total and utter dread Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Toongaboom Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Keith Armstrong (b. 11 October 1957, Newcastle, England) is a British/Finnish dual-nationality football manager and former player. He played with OPS for two years, before moving to Koparit in Kuopio. Subsequently, he played in nine different clubs around Finland, getting to his name 179 league matches, scoring 60 goals, and winning three championships (with OPS in 1979 and 1980 and with Kuusysi in 1984). In 1993, at the age of 35, he retired from playing professional football and started out as the manager of his then club Rovaniemen Palloseura (RoPS). For the 1995 season, he moved to Seinäjoki and took the local club, TP-Seinäjoki into the Veikkausliiga. In 1997, he was offered a post at FC Haka, which he accepted, getting the club promoted from the Ykkönen and winning three league championships in a row with the Valkeakoski team. He received the Manager of the Year award in 2000, after Haka's second subsequent title. In late 2001, he was signed by HJK, propelling the team to a league championship in 2002 and a league and cup double in 2003. In 2004, however, the club finished in the mid-table. In 2006 Armstrong received his second Manager of the Year award and lead HJK to second on league. He was sacked in September 2007. HE IS OUR MAN AND COULD DO JOB!
