Dave Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Talkshite going with the 'OMGZ did Keegan know about Wise?!' rubbish this morning. Even though their own correspondant said it was bollocks. Wind-up-the-listeners-tastic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 PS - as I've said in another thread, Henry Winter was on the radio earlier saying he thinks this will all end in tears and Shearer will be in within a year. I know that will disappoint many who look to his articles for a bit of pro-NUFC stance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustynrg Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I think once Chris Mort comes out and makes his statement the journos won't have any reason to be saying things like this and it will settle down. I was surprised at Winter saying that, he's usually a calm voice. I was wondering whilst listening to talksport this morning (why do we listen to it though?) - do you think Keegan and Ashley and Mort listen to all this garbage? If I was them it would make me so angry I wouldn't want to ever speak to the press again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Express this morning (I read someone's over their shoulder on the train, didn't buy it!) has a load of shizzite about Keegan moving out of the shadow of Shearer and now having Wise lurking in the background. I feel sorry for the people who take this shit seriously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that will disappoint many who look to his articles for a bit of pro-NUFC stance. Winter is NOT anti-NUFC as a matter of course - he was very pro-us in the 90s and I have no doubt that he made the comments about the new off-field set-up because they were his genuine thoughts on the matter. I actually share some of his reservations although I think its too soon to say it will end in tears - nevertheless, the potential for that is there as most people can see.....

Thats exactly the point. Chances are Keegan won't get us back into the top 4, and so all of the press can say I told you so. Its just lazy journalism, you can bet if Wenger was trying to put some sort of structure like this in place at Arsenal, we'd be hearing about how he's light years ahead of clubs like Newcastle. Its what separates the good journalists (ie. Winter) from the bad ones (ie. the rest of them) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustynrg Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 We can't win in the presses' eyes. If Keegan was doing everything (youth policy, development etc) it would be "Keegan will suffer from burnout and LEAVE" - if we start to look like we're doing what Spurs and Chelsea are doing management wise (with Directors of Football etc) then Keegan is being undermined. I'm convinced they have an agenda, "let's get keegan out and move onto the next target". I mean they're going on and on about no goals in two games, two games? What about the 24 games under Allardyce? We're not exactly goal machines are we? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BONTEMPI Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Jesus Christ!!! KEEGAN 10/1 TO GET THE CHOP Posted 29/01/08 15:21EmailPrintSave Kevin Keegan has had his odds slashed from 40/1 to 10/1 to become the next Premier League manger to get the sack. Despite having only been in the job for two weeks King Kev's odds have been cut after the appointment of Dennis Wise, apparently over Keegan's head, which has caused unrest in the Newcastle ranks. "I am reluctant to tell you all I know as I really do not know anything." Keegan told The Sun on the Wise matter. "I just do not know enough about it so it is pointless me saying something or sitting down and saying to you this wasn't quite right or that wasn't quite right. I just want to focus on tonight's game with Arsenal." Keegan has walked away from every managerial job he has had, including in his previous tenure at Newcastle, and is believed to be upset with the appointment of Wise. The former Leeds boss takes up the role of executive director of football, handling transfers along with other responsibilities but will have nothing to do with the day-to-day running of the side. Rafael Benitez still remains the bookies favourite to become the next manager to get the sack with Sky Bet placing the Spainish manager at 3/1 to go after his falling out with Liverpool's American owners and the clubs failure to mount a Premier League challenge despite spending nearly £50million on players this season.

Keefaz Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Just laugh it off. If anything, Keegan could use this to his advantage. A siege mentality would help unite the fans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 "Keegan has walked away from every managerial job he has had." And yet the opening line concentrates on him potentially getting the sack (as per the bookies). Quality article aside, obviously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowen Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 "I am reluctant to tell you all I know as I really do not know anything." I'm pretty sure he said everything, not anything didn't he? Quite a major difference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 The press should launch a red top tabloid called "The Liar". People would still buy it and believe what they read. Don't pay their wages by buying 'news'papers. If you want to read their lies read them on the internet for free. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
