fuhg Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Just on SSN - Kinnear signed contract as permanent manager to end of season. http://www.nufc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10278~1469731,00.html NEWCASTLE United have announced today (November 28) that Joe Kinnear has signed a contract as manager until the end of the 2008/09 season. Joe initially came to St.James' Park in September in an interim role but will now run in with the Magpies for the rest of the campaign. He said: "Ever since I came to Newcastle United I have thoroughly enjoyed the experience. "The players have been great to work with and the fans have made me feel at home since day one. "We have a big challenge ahead of us for the rest of the season but together I'm confident we will make good progress. "We have some very good players already at this club and hopefully we can further strengthen the squad in January and I will be working very closely with the directors to try to achieve that." Managing Director Derek Llambias said: "Joe has done an excellent job since coming to the Club and everyone is delighted that he has agreed to remain in charge for the rest of the season."

steve_69 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Good! That means there's a bit of stability in place, we're more likely to make signings in January and the majority of the players are happy. Ok so he's no Hiddink but he's done well since he's been here and he genuinely wants the job, not just the money it brings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umer Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Well this was always going to happen, wasn't it? At least we now have a bit of stability until the end of the season, and will mean he has a bit more control in the window. Maybe now sort out a few of the player contracts too?

CPL Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Good!

Ok so he's no Hiddink but he's done well since he's been here and he genuinely wants the job, not just the money it brings. Agree although hes not the best man for the job, hes doing a good enough job and the state we're in at the moment who was people expecting like?

mrmojorisin75 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 We are going down. mirrors my own first thought...i think he's done an adequate job so far but i honestly don't even think he'll manage to maintain "adequate" for the rest of the season for us to survive i think we really needed a boost that the appointment of a good, competent manager (or an emotional appointment like shearer) would have given us we got this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umer Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I know I'm gonna get shot down for this but......As long as we don't get too many injuries and we at least keep the players we have we won't go down. Relax people, give the guy a chance.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnypd Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 kinnear's been able to use the insecurity and turmoil to his favour, he's that kind of manager and thrives on the siege mentality. making his position more secure might undermine that strategy a bit. also suggests we arent being sold...for a good while yet. id also worry about how much spending we'll do in jan. maybe with keegan out the way the likes of wise will have £10m or so to play with. maybe this is the yes-man ashley so desperately wanted in through the back door.
