Good news. Let's start acting like a proper club now.

 

Oh no, you've been duped by them again, when will people learn?!

 

Exactly. People going a bit ott here like. We've got rid of next seasons assistant manager. The club, it's goals and everything it stands for remains unchanged.

 

I get that, it's just a relief he is gone and the start we needed if we are to progress.

 

Obviously time will tell but Carver as Manager just drained me.

It's complete humiliation for Carver, after the way he was bigging himself up for the top job, even when we only just avoided relegation. Sad from that point of view, but the right decision. He made such a mess of the job and lost the confidence of the players, so there'd always be an atmosphere around him if he'd stayed on.

 

He and Stone have been treated as a job lot, indicating that McClaren has demanded to bring his own men in.

Carver wanted to be NUFC manager/head coach. Now he's not going to be let's see if he tries to get a manager job somewhere else (or was it just NUFC he wanted to manage).

First team coach Steve Stone will also leave as managing director Lee Charnley clears the decks for Steve McClaren’s arrival and punishes those responsible for hurling the club into an unexpected fight for survival.

 

Did Charnley punish himself too? He's the idiot who's decisions put us in the s***. I wonder if he also punished Mike Ashley for appointing him in the first place?

 

I wonder who made the calls this time?

NUFC operate the same 'dismissal' technique which The Joker used on his bank job at the start of 'The Dark Knight'.

also hope this comes off:

 

Both Carver and Stone leave with pay-offs but the goalkeeping coach, Andy Woodman, who also has five years left on his contract, has not been sacked. Pardew is believed to be keen on taking Woodman to Palace and Newcastle would be due compensation should that move materialise.

I think the sticking point with the "goalkeeping guru" is his son being contracted to us.

 

Is Woodman jr. really any good? Honest question.

He has represented England at youth level fwiw.

 

Given he's had his father's "coaching"  throughout his career and also given we decided to play a Alnwick who has since been released I doubt it.

He's the No.1 for whatever England youth teams he is at. So for his age you would have to say so.

U18, started against Russia yesterday.  Armstrong captained and Barlaser also started.

Decent news. He clearly loves the club but is an absolute moron and was horrifically out of his depth. The same will probably be true of their replacements like.

......

Don't think he gives a fuck about the club tbh, all that chest beating and shite about "not letting the fans/city down" was just him trying to make out his passion would qualify him for the job.... Bit sad tbh how things panned out cus before last season I always liked him, mostly down to the fact I grew up way him assisting sir bobby, and  in 2011 I was happy to see him come back... But I think he's proven himself over the last 18 months or so to be a ball bag... It boils my piss tbh that a young fresh face like garde or vieria (who were both apparently interested in the post) couldn't of got the chance to bring in there own staff... Ahwell

Lee Ryder just said on Twitter, should be a story on Ronnie Gill website anytime soon.

 

Good move, always liked Carver.

 

John Carver has been appointed as Assistant Manager to Alan Pardew at Newcastle United.

 

Carver, 46, has joined United on a contract until the end of the season.

 

Manager Alan Pardew said: "I'm delighted to be bringing John on board, he has an excellent track record as a coach and of course knows this club very well.

 

"It was crucial for me that I brought in an assistant who I knew would work well with the current coaching team we have here. We've got a good solid set-up with some excellent staff and maintaining that stability is very important to me. John fitted the bill perfectly.

 

"It's a short term deal at the moment in order that I can get to know John better and it gives us both the chance to see how the next four months pan out working together.

 

"That said, I'm very confident he'll be a great addition to our coaching staff and hopefully, if things go well, we can make it a longer term appointment come the summer."

And John added: "I am proud and honoured to be able to come back once again to my home town club.

 

"I have been lucky to be able to work around the world with some excellent people. However, I have always been a fan of this magnificent club and the years I spent working here were some of the happiest of my life.

 

"I am looking forward to working with Alan Pardew and building on the recent strides that the club has taken to get back to where we belong, at the top of English football.

 

"I understand how much the club and the results mean to these wonderful fans and I am delighted to be have the opportunity to assist Alan in delivering them the success they deserve.

 

"I would like to thank Mike, Derek and Alan for giving me this incredible opportunity."

 

Carver was previously at United under Sir Bobby Robson up until September 2004 and even took charge of the team in a caretaker capacity against Blackburn Rovers at St. James' Park on 11 September 2004, winning 3 - 0.

 

John has also spent time in various capacities at Leeds United, Luton Town, Toronto (MLS), Plymouth Argyle and Sheffield United. He also held the post of Academy Manager at Newcastle United in 2004/05.

 

As a player John joined United at the age of 14 in 1979, turning professional in 1983 but suffered a serious thigh injury playing for the Reserves at Wolves.

 

He moved to Cardiff in 1985 without having made a first team appearance for United but did play 13 times for the Bluebirds before that injury brought a premature end to his playing career.

What a difference 4 years can make - made my day hearing the news today.  Club needs a fresh start.
