oldtype Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I wake up from a coma tomorrow. Turns out everything from the end of last season was just hallucination. Keegan never walked out, and he's getting along just fine with Ashley/Wise/Jimenez/Vertre. Chairman Chris Mort is doing a smashing job running the club. We're 7th on the table behind Villa and Everton. Jonas got player of the month for November after terrorizing Fulham and Wigan's defenses playing through the center of the pitch in Keegan's new 4-3-3. Nile Ranger is averaging a hat trick in the U18 and Reserve leagues, and KK has just gone on another rant about how Wenger is "tapping him up." We're on course to finish top half. The fans have never been more optimistic. It's a good time to be a Newcastle fan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Randy Lerner's slightly richer brother takes over, Shearer gets the manager's job, Mike Ashley loses all his money betting on Nigel Pearson to be the next Burnley boss and Damien Duff walks under a bus. Suits me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 This is my guess as to what will probably happen, not what I want to happen. Kinnear will get another month, in early December Ashley will make it known that he couldn't find a buyer in time and takes the club off the market. Llambias will be replaced by somebody else then it gets tricky. Ashley has 3 choices, he tries to leave things as they are and sell up in the summer, which would be the worst possibility as it probably means Kinnear staying. He could go half hearted and appoint a manager who isn't the best but might take the job until the club is sold, that wouldn’t be good as it’s too short term and just brings instability. His third choice would be to say "Bollocks, I'm going to make this work." If he does that then he goes for a permanent manager and allows them to do the job the way they want to. That would probably be the best of the three because at least we would get some stability and forward planning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I would love Ashley to decide that he wants to make a real go of it and bollocks to the fans. Then he would bring in a new, quality manager who gets on with and accepts the backroom system. Then we could go on with steady progress and buying decent quality players.

Guest Darth Toon Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Ashley and Wise etc leave - he breaks even but doesn't profit from the mess he helped create. New wealthy owner arrives, prepared to stay in the background while allocating significant (but not ridiculous) funding to his choice of manager JFK gets decent job elsewhere on the strength of his efforts for us Full extent of previous regime's mistreatment of KK is finally revealed, resulting in a massive swell of support for his return - even Baggio admits; "sorry lads, turns out I was talking shite all this time" He comes back with proper backing in the transfer market, gets Owen to stay on, and keeps us up comfortably this season, and we make a real assault on the European places next year. KK's revitalised team wins the League/FA Cup the following season, and leaves us in a far stronger position for Shearer to come in and take over, and continue our upwards trajectory. See, I'm not greedy! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhatTheFunk Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 ....to end all this takeover and manager mess? You write the script really, within the constraints of reality, if you don't mind. Personally, I'd have Mike Ashley to come out and say he's not selling the club anymore, and gives us a detailed explanation of what happened, how he plans for it not to happen again, and how he now will give all control of first team affairs, ingoings and outgoings to the new manager, Alan Shearer. Would possibly get Owen to tie down a deal, and would unify the fans, and possibly players again. EDIT Agreed. Rather have Ashley in charge than anyone from overseas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 New owners, Shearer as manager armed with a substantial transfer war chest. If Ashley stays, he has to bring in a full time manager and give him enough money to compete, whichever system he goes with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
