Rémi Garde and the case of the missing art galleries

Maybe he's agreed to come in the summer but say nothing about it.

 

Just as likely he told them no and was asked to stay quiet to fool fans into having hope for next season knowing the twats running this club

Very convenient timing given the backlash to JC PR, the woeful performance Saturday and the raft of new ST cancellations. Sure none of those things are related at all mind.....

I'm clinging to this: "Garde has told friends that the major hurdle to overcome in January talks with Newcastle was the fate of long-serving assistant Gerald Baticle, who remains at Lyon and would not be able to leave until the summer"

:lol:

 

Also, are people now just assuming the media was pushing carver for no reason whatsoever? Maybe the journal have stumbled across an article to sell some papers.....

Well if you read Ryders tweets he was accusing people of thinking that :lol: Almost as though Bishop wasnt here at all.

**Massively positive post alert**

 

I'm adamant he's coming. He insisted on continuing to have his year off and has agreed to take over the summer. Job done. Bosh.

 

Plus it would also explain why all of a sudden it was Carver in the short term. We were seemingly on the verge of appointing someone and then whack, it's Carver.

 

Has to be.

Obviously massively hope you're right.

 

But why haven't we said Garde is coming already, and why are the club feeding the media loads of positive Carver stories? Everything feels like it's being set up for Carver to get it.

For garde to be in some sort of confidentiality agreement has to be a positive sign. If he knows he's definitely not getting / wanting the job then he has nothing to gain by keeping quiet. There is no way Ashley would pay him anything to keep quiet if he's not offering him a job.

I wish it was so, but it's just what they want us to believe tbh. Let's see if Carver can pick up a decent result (lol) and the press is again pushing for him to get the job.

Can't see Carver getting the job permanently at all. Any talk going against this has merely been to try and keep the players interested IMO, instead of going on the early holiday they have.

LOL. Asbolutely nobody from top to bottom at our club (except fans of course) care about the rest of the season short of getting another 10 points.

Since Keegan our last few managers have been: out of the game for years, promoted assistants, had absolutely no experience whatsoever, dredged up from League One.  What makes people thing Carver won't get the job with our track record?

Hence why I said they've gone on holiday.

It's a good question. But...it could be that not even Fat Mike fail to realise that appointing Carver would mean relegation. I also hope Graham Carr has a major say in all this.

I just think that if the plan is to give Garde the job then why not get it all agreed and made public.  It would keep the fans onside for the rest of the season instead of allowing the discontent to fester and Carver would get an easier ride because everyone would know that he was only in place until the end of the season. 

 

Maybe they think the team might drift but they are doing that anyway and perhaps knowing who the manager was going to be next season might make them focus more as they would know there is a plan in place and who they needed to impress.

 

It's more likely they did a Shearer with him, where they shook hands and left him thinking he had the job only to never to get in touch with him again.

Or they're waiting to see how Carver does. The job is his if he doesn't f*** it all up completely. Which he may well do.

Quick reminder that this is the same Mike Ashley who less than 2 years ago, without consulting Carr or the manager, appointed Joe Kinnear as Director of Football to steady the ship after we finished 16th with our second lowest PL points total ever.
