I'm all for Shola staying at the club in some aspect though, just not a playing one.

 

Cleaner or something. I want him nowhere near the coaching staff, imagine him trying to coach even a 10 year old on how to control a pass.

Anyone who wants him here in any role needs their head checked. Yeah he might be a 'good lad' but he's an absolutely horrific footballer and I wouldn't want anyone learning anything at all off him.

 

That, and the fact that a bizarre amount of coaches have bagged manager jobs in the PL this season and with Pardle struggling...

Pardew is just a complete moron.  Given a choice of one of Carr's young, hungry, talented strikers or a contract extension for a player who has managed 1 premier league goal in about two years he'd go for the latter.  Imagine Carr's face at the transfer summit after he's just run through a detailed breakdown of some of the top striking talent in France and Pardew goes 'Nah, let's give Shola a new contract instead.'

Not sure how much playing ability impacts coaching ability tbh. Beardsley would be producing shit loads of quality youth players if it played that big a role. Shola comes across as a pretty intelligent lad as well tbf.

Pardew is understood to be concerned at a lack of leadership in the squad and had proposed a contract extension for Shola Ameobi, with the possibility of the striker being given a coaching role.

 

However, that is understood to have been knocked back, with Newcastle’s hierarchy preferring to refresh the squad in the summer and bring in new talent.

 

That means that even though he is set for an extended run in the team Ameobi’s goal at St James’ Park on Saturday may well be his last in a black-and-white shirt.

 

“It doesn’t mean anything. Ultimately, and this is the way I’ve always seen it, it’s about winning games,” he said after his strike at the weekend.

 

“I don’t care who scores, really. I’ve always been like that, which is probably to my detriment. It’s about winning games. That’s where I get ultimate satisfaction – knowing I’ve helped the team. Unfortunately that hasn’t happened.”

You couldn't make that shite up.
