stozo Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Errors of the past will only be repeated unless we get rid of the Fat one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tachikoma Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Head, sand, in. Really, no one's going to disagree that the fat one needs to leave (except the usual culprits) but we need a manager who has a clue to save us from relegation until we do get rid of him.

BlufPurdi Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Got to disagree. Mainly because it's not likely Shepherd is going anywhere, so the option of keeping Roeder until he goes is, simply, insane. Plus, a change of board isn't going to make Roeder have anymore of a clue.

GM Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 I'm with you Bluf! Honestly - nothing good will come of getting rid of Fred right now. It's like the fanbase is going into self-destruct mode. I'm no fan of FFS, but the trouble right now is the players are clearly down, the manager's got no strikeforce and absolutely no clue what the hell he's doing.

Exactly, we need to correct things at ground level before looking any higher at anyone in suits. Or we could well get caught cold and relegated. Get Roeder out and then build from there.

Guest optimistic nit Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 no point in sacking roeder, until he's gone i gree Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbers Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Don, I like the idea of it, but who is there to replace roeder? The guy who sells the Ronny Gill outside Eldon Square could do a better job...Roeder is a clueless fucking ferret. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
indi Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 I don't want Roeder sacked, but I want him in a job he's capable of doing: Academy Director. Non-of this is Roeder's fault really, he can't help that he's not good enough, it's like asking a paraplegic to run a marathon, no matter how hard they try, it's just not going to happen. The blame lies with Shepherd and if Roeder goes, it should not be allowed to take the pressure off the board, even if the results get better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JamesD Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 agreed. today it seemed like roeder was doing the best with what he had, and his players certainly did him no favors with that preformance. but if he goes, like many people want, then what next? another shit manager?

A different slant on it, and I agree, but he still needs to be relieved of his duties as our manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to think Roeder's scalp will not take these new malcontents' collective eye off the ball. They've made a fairly good start, so far.

Guest Drymarker1 Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 fred needs to go...what half decent manager would even consider coming here whilst he is the chairman. For fooooks sake who would take the job if Roeder was sacked?!!?!?!?!?!? WE WANT SHEPHERD OUT - I FCUKIN HATE HIM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dr. Richard Kimble Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Sheperd will give time for Dyer and Martins to come back, by then we could be well adrift. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like the fanbase is going into self-destruct mode. I'm no fan of FFS, but the trouble right now is the players are clearly down, the manager's got no strikeforce and absolutely no clue what the hell he's doing. Both have to go ASAP, this club will decline more every day hes there. As someone at the match pointed out todays game should have been moved to tomorrow but Shepherd could only see the pound signs of Sky. Glenn has to go tomorrow and Fred as soon as possible, a change of ownership takes time it cant happen overnight but until it does we need out of this relegation battle and theres no way Roeder can take us out.

I agree with you, mate. But like you say, there's no chance of Freddy leaving soon, it would take months for anything to be finalised, that is months we don't have if Roeder is in charge. They both need to go, but realistically, Roeder is the only one with any chance of going sooner. And I know Shepherd hasn't got a good enough record of appointing 'successful' managers, I personally don't think he could appoint anyone worse than Roeder. Mind, I did think the same with Souness...

Spot on, Indigo but don't expect everybody to agree, some will still tell us that he's doing a good job, is better than Ellis and buys more major England players than the board pre-1992.

Guest maroonman Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 I presume it was the board who agreed to have the game today, less than 48 hours after the game in Palermo. Roeder's pre-match comments suggest he wasn't impressed. Bloody ludicrous decision. :wullie: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Knightrider Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Curbishley, if ever appointed at Newcastle, would go the same way as Glenn and Souness as soon as a run of poor results came about because he's just an ordinary manager at the end of the day and lacks the key skills needed to take charge of this club. He hasn't the CV or name to ride a rough period like say, Bobby Robson did. If Curbishley is the best we can do, we'll be back to square one within a year or 2 without a doubt and we'll be calling for his head like we are Roeder's. He's a better manager for sure, but he's not a great manager and this is what this club needs frankly. Anyone else is just a mere stop gap or a scapegoat... Sadly we are not in a position to attract a great manager and we lack the brains to go out and find one that can be a great manager, if they even exist. Big Sam would be my choice because he has the balls and the key skills needed, he's also a proven bargain basement spender and we'll need someone of that ilk as we're skint.
