Venables to tell NUFC in the morning whether he wants the job until the end of October, according to Sky. Was up in the North East this morning.

 

could be our briefest managerial stint yet if ashley sells by the weekend

 

They said it suggested a deal was not imminent.

Would be a very good appointment for that period of time. Not sure he'll take it but he should, if only to put himself back in the shop window. A dodgy character, but I always rated him as a coach.

It suggests that Ashley fully expects to sell the club by the end of October but is "slightly" worried that the consistently shit performance of the present team might put the mockers on any deal unless some manager comes and steadies the ship.

Venables would be as good a short term fix as any!

Pretty much, if true. :thup:

The worst decision in our history. Seriously.

 

We'll be dead and buried by the time he's finished.

 

We will certainly be dead and buried if things dont change in the next 6 weeks.

he'll do, much better than hughton at least. im not expecting too much though because if he takes the job starting next week, he'll have 2 hard games, 1 derby and 1 winnable game.

So we are bringing in Bryan Robson's babysitter. You have to admire these c***s at the top of NUFC they get a load of cockney abuse, so to counter they bring in Venners as a f*** YOU c***s!!! Be interesting to see if El Tel just fly's in does training & then does one back to the capital. If only XL had the Newcastle to London route they may not have went bust.

You've never heard of a man called Graeme Souness, have you.

 

If we appointed Souness NOW it would be as bad as Venables, but at the time you could point to how he'd actually improved Blackburn and won a trophy.
