Optimistic Nut Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 The optimist in me says, I don't remember to many relegation scraps under Freddy. The season before he left we were away defeats at Sheff Utd & West Ham away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 If fatty has the energy to give it another go, we should support his bravado. It would have been far easier to walk away into the golf sunset. I'll give him that, he's no Kevin Keegan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 The optimist in me says, I don't remember to many relegation scraps under Freddy. what does the realist in you say ? (you may want to let him withdraw first mind) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 If fatty has the energy to give it another go, we should support his bravado. It would have been far easier to walk away into the golf sunset. very fair point. What are Shepherd's motives here? He wants the club to move forward and yes he probably wants to be the geordie hero he always saw himself as. From my perspective those motives are a lot more psoitive and sincere than what we've experienced in the last 2 years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 He can't walk away because of his fucking ego. That's the problem. As opposed to the other choice who has been trying to get out since day one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As opposed to the other choice who has been trying to get out since day one. Give over. Fat Fred has never got over the fact that he was dethroned whilst he was being fed by a tube up his arse.

Wallace Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I heard this earlier this evening and the person (contacts with Shepherd) was adamant about it but I just dismissed it as rumour as I didn'tknow the guy who told me. Was also told that it would be announced on Wednesday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but the indications going from his last 3 years suggest we'd have continued sliding that way rather than reverse the trend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Venkman Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 so who'll be the manager after he sacks shearer? bryan robson? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 so who'll be the manager after he sacks shearer? bryan robson? Depends on the reason he sacks Shearer. If Bryan Robson is the opposite, he's the man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmymag Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Wonder if Freddie will make a late bid to extend Michael Owen's contract If fatty has the energy to give it another go, we should support his bravado. It would have been far easier to walk away into the golf sunset. very fair point. What are Shepherd's motives here? He wants the club to move forward and yes he probably wants to be the geordie hero he always saw himself as. From my perspective those motives are a lot more psoitive and sincere than what we've experienced in the last 2 years Perhaps Freddie is hoping to rush through a deal so that his first act as chairman can be to re-sign Michael Owen, his first trophy signing of the new era.

cubaricho Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Only at Newcastle. Get rid of one shitty chairman, get one we think is great that ends up being shitty and replacing him with the old shitty owner. Love it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 It would be more Freddy's style to take over a day before Owen's contract expires. Then drive him to Goodison Park in his Range Rover Sport and stick footage of himself lowering his window and laughing maniacally on Youtube Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
