Guest itsTosh Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Aye, and after the data room we can all move into the panic room. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Is "data room" some sort of technical jargon for a computer room? Seems a strange phrase, why can't he just say, "they are allowed to look at the books"? I know, i know because he's a cretin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I refuse to believe anything he says. Unless it's from Shearer himself then it's bollocks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Data room is a term people use in business to refer to the "data room" that due diligence files are kept. I'm sure in older times a specific secure meeting room/space was kept for potential buyers to send their analysts and accountants in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Apparently its an online version of the clubs books. People or groups who have proved they have the cash to buy the club can look at the books before finalising their bid for the club. But if people have proved this already and then surely they didn't have to wait till everyone had before they allowed access, surely they can given individual access. Basically it sounds like we're a joke again. Not necessarily, they will likely have set deadlines - OK on X date, all buyers have to prove their cash status. OK great, next step is on X date we will open our data room for a period of XX time. First interested group will get first shot to buy (if you believe the reports). Its literally a rat race this sale it seems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ItalianMagpie Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I've just read that all of the 4 consortia bidding for the club agreed on keeping Shearer as manager, so it seems he's going to be offered a contract imminently, even before they come to an agreement. Can this be true? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I spoke to me dad last night, and he said they mentioned something on the legends about the 4 consortiums meeting, and discussing whether if they all want Shearer as manager. If they do, it was claimed a decision could be made by tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallace Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 It was in The Journal today. http://www.journallive.co.uk/nufc/newcastle-united-news/2009/06/17/newcastle-united-transfer-hotline-on-alert-61634-23894969/ The sale of United moves on to a significant new stage today when the window for interested parties to confirm they have the funds needed to buy the club closes, and the due diligence process begins. This will also enable owner Mike Ashley to gauge the opinion of all the interested parties and should all of them – and that is understood to be the case – want Shearer as manager, the former skipper will be confirmed as manager almost immediately with his appointment no longer a barrier to any takeover. Should that favourable verdict materialise, Shearer will throw himself into the job with gusto as he tries to make up for lost time, with no pre-season friendlies arranged and no plans in place for the start of the Championship season, even though Newcastle’s fixtures will be released later today.

fredbob Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Is Shearer most peoples first choice? Im probably in the monority when i say that I dont want him managing the club. I know comparison to Souness will get me slated but charactrer wise and attitude wise Im struggling to see too many difference, anyone care to enlighten me as to what it is that makes Shearer so qualified?

Yorkie Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I can see a similarity character-wise with Alex Ferguson. You make up your own interpretations. Just cos you take the disciplinarian approach doens't mean you're a shit manager. Souness just happened to be a thoroughly shit manager, he was also pretty arrogant and pretty deluded when it came to certain players (the better ones) too. As i say, you make your own mind up on managers and what sort of people they are, but i think it's a bit daft comparing him to someone like Souness just because he told the laxidaisical fuckers in our squad to get a grip.

He's played here during the good times, and will want to get the club back up to that level. That has got to be additional motivation! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
