Vinny Green Balls Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Watch what you say about JFK. His record speaks for himself as last manager to lead Newcastle to the Superbowl. I remember that, the day we beat Tottenham 2-1? Yeah, we held Tom Brady to 150 yards that day. Bilicheck called Kinnear the greatest manager since Tiberius Rockefeller.

biggs Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I think if anything is going to happen worthwhile in terms of a protest, it's imperative that the local media (papers, TV and radio) are onside with it too. Surely none of them can pander to the club after this latest one? Ashley needs the local press - even if it may not seem so. i read the Journal and Chronicle this morning in titsos and both papers imho were laying into him and the nationals onside should be a shit storm of fun for the next few months now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinny Green Balls Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Well, I think one thing has been proven from this series of events. Pardew IS NOT the worst thing about this club. Until we jettison Fat Mike into the Tyne, he never will be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

J7 Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Pardew is a poor, poor manager at this level, but unfortunately as the last few days has shown, he's probably the best we're going to get under Ashley. Seems like all the papers are running with Pardew not being happy and wanting Kinnear to shut the fuck up. Can't be a coincidence. Steven Taylor can fuck off though. It's usually a race between him and Beardsley to get their nose lodged into Ashley's fat stinkin ring piece first. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexthegreat Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Going off those reports it's not that much for Pardew to ask really - just shut the fuck up and say as much as every other director of football in this country. Highly doubtful JFK will be able to manage that though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highly doubtful JFK will be able to manage that though. And here's the big problem. JFK is such a mouthpiece, the hacks will hound him for quotes all day long, the first whiff of blood, even back-to-back defeats and they'll all over him like a rash. Is he likely to take the high ground? Answers on a postcard please Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Alan Pardew 'relaxed' over the arrival of Joe Kinnear by Mark Douglas, The JournalJun 18 2013Comments (32) ALAN Pardew is planning for the future as Newcastle United manager ahead of a meeting with the Magpies' new direct of football Joe Kinnear this week. Pardew again avoided making any public statements yesterday despite repeated attempts to contact him, adding to an air of uncertainty around St James’ Park, but he was understood to be in contact with senior figures at the club to discuss United business. There has been mounting speculation about his own position at the club and what Kinnear’s appointment means, but Pardew has given no indication of any unhappiness. Kinnear even went as far as to claim Pardew is “delighted” by the new arrival. Although the lack of public statement adds an air of intrigue to the picture, he was said to be relatively “relaxed” about the Kinnear appointment. However, when he does speak again he will emphasise the fact he continues to control the day-to-day running of team affairs – something the new director of football will be reminded of, too. Kinnear’s first interviews in his new role have seen him claim wide-ranging influence over everything from transfers to the team’s playing style, but The Journal understands his position will be slightly more prosaic. Having not been active at a Premier League football club since 2009 he will not take on any scouting duties, which will continue to be conducted by Graham Carr. There will be no interference with the first team either, which continues to be Pardew’s domain. Lee Charnley, the club’s secretary, continues to oversee contracts and other day-to-day business. Instead, Kinnear will sit in on and contribute to meetings on team and transfer affairs and be the man designated with the task of approaching Ashley on behalf of the club’s football staff. Kinnear hinted at this when he said Derek Llambias’ role would be changed to concentrate on “the finances” of the business. Kinnear was chosen because Ashley wanted to add “experience” and “football knowledge” to his management team. Ashley has never made any secret about his admiration for Kinnear, who he firmly believes would have kept Newcastle in the Premier League but for his illness. The new director of football is slated to meet Pardew towards the end of the week, although confirmation of the announcement was delayed yesterday. Llambias and Charnley are both away, which may have added to the tardiness. A statement is expected to be forthcoming today. Kinnear has been less conservative, continuing to speak on-the-record about his new role. As well as offering assurances Newcastle will not sell Yohan Cabaye, he has publicly reassured Pardew he will not step on his toes. He said: “Before I had a meeting with Mike, Derek said he had informed Alan and Alan said: ‘Great news – I’m delighted with that. At last I have somebody who’s a football guy. “Derek told me he’s had a long talk with Alan and explained I’m coming in as director of football. He (Llambias) is going to go on the finance side and anything to do with football is coming my side. “I am delighted to be working with Alan. We are very open-minded and good with each other. "I have the utmost respect for him and I cannot see any problems between the two of us. “I am not the type of guy who causes problems for the sake of it. I want the best for all of us.” United made another French signing on Sunday, securing the signature of 17-year-old Metz striker OIivier Kemen. The France under-19 international tweeted a picture of himself on the pitch alongside Peter Beardsley.

Skirge Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Alan Pardew plays waiting game following confirmation of Joe Kinnear as Newcastle's director of football Alan Pardew wants reassurances that Joe Kinnear will not heap further embarrassment upon Newcastle United as the club’s manager considers whether he can work with their controversial new director of football. By Luke Edwards11:00PM BST 18 Jun 20132 Comments Newcastle belatedly confirmed Kinnear’s appointment on Tuesday, stating clearly that the 66-year-old would have overall control of the football side of the club’s business, making him Pardew’s boss. The club’s official statement, which tellingly did not carry any endorsement or comment from Pardew, came less than 24 hours after a radio interview in which a belligerent Kinnear accused Newcastle fans opposed to his appointment of talking “tosh”, mispronounced the names of several of the club’s players, and bragged of the strength of his relationships with Arsène Wenger and Sir Alex Ferguson. Pardew is understood to be keeping his options open over whether it will be possible for him to work with Kinnear. The pair have spoken on the telephone, but they have still not had a proper meeting about how the new structure will work, and Pardew will seek certain conditions from Kinnear before he commits to the new set-up at St James’ Park. Along with staying out of team selection and tactics, one of Pardew’s demands will be for Kinnear to stop courting publicity in the media. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/newcastle-united/10128821/Alan-Pardew-plays-waiting-game-following-confirmation-of-Joe-Kinnear-as-Newcastles-director-of-football.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tollemache Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Yep, it's framed in a relatively acceptable way in that article. You do wonder about his ability even to be a communicative water carrier between manager and board though, given the total lack of control he seems to have over words, language, semantics etc... Perhaps like most illiterate or dumb people, you usually get the hang of what they mean in the end, even if they have no idea how to say it, but why give yourself that problem Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tollemache Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 And also: why let him out in public? That is just a weird thing to do when you know what he's like. And also also: it really should be a very simple and uninteresting process to define what a director of football does and where the manager's responsibilities begin and end. Just look at almost every other half-decent club in the world. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
