Cronky Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 surely his 'trial' is over now He's as good as called time on it himself. We have to appoint someone now. If Carver can't motivate himself to keep battling he's not going to be able to inspire his players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 @lee_ryder #nufc sources suggesting club are hoping to appoint new head coach by the end of the month. The search has been ongoing this week. What a fucking scoop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Couldn't they have just come out and said: "look, here's our new manager. We believe the current squad is good enough to stay up and we will keep our powder dry until the summer (haha) in order to let the new manager assess what he's got and what he requires" if they are such cheapskates that they won't even fix the two glaring holes in our squad with the tens and tens of millions they must be sitting on by now?

Mikky Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I'm going to stick up for him in as much as I do think he cares about the club. Yep I agree; and you could see that come across the interview Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gino14 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 People have their views on Carver as a person, but I don't think this is personal to many people. If he was perceived to be good enough, nobody would really object to him getting the job, at least I don't think so anyway. For me he's not really up to it and doesn't have either the skills or gravitas to be the head coach of a club like Newcastle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummie Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Is he really only 50? He looks about 10 years older. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottishMagpie Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I feel more upbeat after reading about what he said. Judging by his relaxed attitude in the latter stages of the match i really thought he was getting the job (my thinking being if it was me and this was my 'last' chance to make a good impression on my interviewers i would be going off my nut).

Dave Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Fairly convinced now that he won't be getting it full time. Just too much at risk. Still think he might be asked to take it until the summer though. Be funny as fuck if he turns that down, but he wouldn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Why Ruud? Why would it be great if he got it? On what basis? I'm sure people know it would be disaster and just want to laugh at us failing at this point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 "He was an OK coach at Toronto" led him to "it'd be great [if he managed a Prem club]". Madness. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think he might be asked to take it until the summer though. Be funny as f*** if he turns that down, but he wouldn't. I think he might refuse to take it till the summer if he was told he had no job after that. So if Garde or whoever brings their own staff he might not like that arrangement. If he has a cushy assistant job guaranteed though there's no way he'll say no. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duo Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I still think he'll get it simply for the fact I can't see Ashley spending money letting him go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't have to quit, he could just stay as assistant and then either take another role or wait to be sacked. In the case he doesn't take it I'm assuming someone like Beardsley would get it till the end of the season. Not sure if that's better or worse really.

Mattoon Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 As much as he was in the wrong for the way he acted in Pardew's defence and has been tainted by proxy of Pardew, coupled with the fact he's simply not good enough; a) you cannot blame him for applying for his dream job and b) you have to respect him for admitting he's out of his depth and having the clubs best interest at heart. I have more respect for him in these 3 weeks than I had in 4 years of Pardew. Having said that I won't be gutted to see him replaced if Garde comes in with his own back room.

TaylorJ_01 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 His contract won't be watertight. The club is ran by rats and there's no way they would have fenced themselves in with the coaching staff. I reckon* they'll have put in a load of clauses. *hope Reckon it's linked to Pardews?
