Shak Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 I think I hate Derren Brown now. Purely from Jonny Hall's avatar, he looks like such a twat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza ladra Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 The hiring of Keegan and subsequent hiring of Shearer were cynical moves on the part of Ashley and co. to buy the support of the fans on the cheap. The whole DOF scheme was just another PR fraud. Let's have some stability.... a new owner, win promotion and then we can start to dreaming big again.

Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Whether Keegan won £2m or £200m today, it'd be a big mistake to bring him back. One thing that this whole farce has taught us is that we need to move forward and stop living in the past. So true Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Alan Shearer 9 Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Whether Keegan won £2m or £200m today, it'd be a big mistake to bring him back. One thing that this whole farce has taught us is that we need to move forward and stop living in the past. So true I agree, it's time to move on and reappoint Keegan.

TRon Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 People who say we should move on are talking like there are loads of alternatives who will provide proven success. Keegan's the most proven manager other than the real top notch appointments like Wenger or Ferguson, that's the most frustrating thing about his being forced out in the first place.

johnnypd Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 if he is objectively the best candidate then wouldn't it be daft to not take him back due to 'baggage'? i'd have him here in a flash, not due to hero worship or cos he is KK, but because he is a good manager and i doubt there's many better to be had. On the other hand, i'm not sure about that 'other' newcastle idol, shearer, because he is simply not proven as a manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have him back, no doubt - for the good of the club. It's simple for me, I like watching good, entertaining football with some wins chucked in playing the right way. If we don't win things big deal. We've not exactly loaded the trophy cupboards in his absence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frazzle Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Shearer won't work as an assistant to anyone, not now. Imagine it did happen though, the press would have a field day.

Don't want to knock Shearer but Keegan's a proven man manager and Alan's still an unknown quantity. As far as I'm aware Keegan would love to work again under new owners and players will walk through a brick wall for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

relámpago blanco Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 No Keegan return for me. Don't get me wrong he's an absolute legend in these parts but I think people have to realise we have to look forwards not backwards. Shearer- Massive gamble, hardly set the world alight last term Keegan- Lacks the skills a manager needs in this day and age Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
