Skeletor Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I think relegation would become a real possibility with them in charge so it's not an option as far as I'm concerned. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Season ticket sales would also be greatly affected, which for them will be the main thing. They have to act now, or they should have just kept Allardyce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's clear they haven't thought this through....Just an idea it might be better to do it properly like a proper club in the summer. I'm asking for water to be turned to wine. Just a thought.

They have to act now, or they should have just kept Allardyce. Season ticket sales are an issue. But not if we show competance and put a quality manager in place in the summer. Surely if we wait until the summer then we'd have to see what changes there were after Euro 2008, a tournament which I assume won't finish until the very end of June, which will already see over 6 weeks of the summer pass. I'd just worry about how much further we could fall behind between now and then without a "proper" manager in place. A lot of the support isn't far-sighted enough to take the approach you're suggesting, and if the Pearson/Round caretaker thing was put into effect I could see the fanbase being as disillusioned as at any time under Shepherd. It would be catastrophic unless it was done with the like of Mourinho publically agreeing/privately signing a contract to come and manage us next season. Even then, the rest of this season would be practically worthless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of using the time from now untill the summer to properly and clearly weigh up all options and take advice privately. To put in place a strategy all understand top to bottom and perhaps this reality check will be of some benefit after all. What I wouldn't want to see is us scurrying around calling all and sundry...''Fancy a job'' style...That would really be detrimental to morale and out long term corporate footprint.

Rich Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Exactly, and it's fair enough that you're looking at the bigger picture and suggesting alternatives. Like I've just posted elsewhere, I'm actually disappointed that Redknapp said "no" because he's obviously been the first to have been made a firm offer and therefore was Mike Ashley's first choice. All I'm hoping for is that we have a Plan B and a Plan C, or a shortlist of decent candidates at least, much like England did. Not too many people were upset with Capello after The FA couldn't get Jose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too many people were upset with Capello after The FA couldn't get Jose. Fair points all of them. I just wonder if the zero sum game might be wait four months and get a high quality candidate by using time and thought and all appropriate channels or get a reasonable man now. I'd be happy to wait. Realise most won't go for this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realise threads are overlapping here all the time, but I can only repeat the same sort of sentiment to what I've been posting elsewhere. I believe that we will act now and that it will probably be for the best, taking everything into account, but then I believed that Redknapp was a formality...

GM Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Let them spend the £100M? What £100M? http://www.newcastle-online.com/nufcforum/index.php?topic=48562.0 The 100m would be for the new manger clearly. It's clear they haven't thought this through....Just an idea it might be better to do it properly like a proper club in the summer. I'm asking for water to be turned to wine. Just a thought. So is that some sort of cryptic Parky speak to indicate that you're expecting the Second Coming? Return of the Messiah - Keegan? Shearer? Or perhaps the Big J C himself? About the only one big enough to lead us to victory... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 till the summer and do this properly? Perhaps giving the new man 4 or so months to realize Smith and co. are shit would be of good... write this season off and give the new man time get his feet warm before next season....

colinmk Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I wouldn't have a problem waiting until then if there is no-one decent available at the moment. I think it would make the board look even worse from the situation than they do now and therefore won't go down that road. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting might be a big risk with Pearson and Round in charge, but what if, and it is only WHAT IF, SBR could do it for 4 months, or even Keegan agreed untill May. That would work wouldn't it?
