Dave Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 McClaren is a less odious but similarly bland version of Pardew. A plodder. We'd stay up with relative ease each year and he'd probably be happy to work with Carver and accept Ashley's idea of how to run a football club. He'll be cheap, coming from a position of weakness. That's why I think he'll get the job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

biggs Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 If true it is a massive risk and with the lack of/no experience it is simply the wron move atm at least get someone who has coached a first team and done well ,keegan was a exception before football got mega money and had a great feeling for what we needed at the time but this stinks of high risk to me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To walk into a Premier League job with virtually no expectations, straight after being sacked by Derby County in the league below? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-more Mag Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Anybody who thinks they're going to succeed under Ashley's regime at this point has to be at least half insane. Makes me really skeptical about anybody who would take the job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Would be absolutely amazed if Vieira ends up being out manager. Unfortunately I don't believe any remotely positive story concerning Newcastle, there's generally an ulterior motive for everything and I'm not daft enough to think Ashley will start taking us seriously now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He ticks all those Ashleyastic boxes, while outwardly the club can claim it's an "ambitious" appointment given McClaren's won two trophies and played in an EL final.

Ronaldo Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Wish McClaren would just say yes so we can end this utter farce and vaguely move forward beyond this putrid era. Into the next putrid era? Yes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottish Mag Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I still reckon we will end up with McClaren. (He appears to be Carrs choices, is happy with the "head coach" role and even all the coincidental links of Ashley/PR Company/David Craig and with Craig breaking all McClarens news/moves etc) I do wonder however if there is an attraction to the likes of Vieira from Ashley as he once again will see potential pound signs. With Vieira seemingly quite highly rated and even talk of him being groomed for the Man City job just think of the potential compensation for him should he be successful? Ashley wins again...

Guest JS Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Even if he does sign, we'll have to buy nearly a whole new squad of players. That's really the deciding factor of whether there is thought or a plan behind Viera. Again, I'm very sceptical of this and I don't know why you wouldn't be. The people who run our club are true scum, and should not be forgiven or allowed to stay. The attidue towards Ashley can't soften. The damage done to NUFC by him is nearly unrepairable and he should be hounded out as soon as possible- potential appointments like Viera should not distract fans from this. This attempted move will fit in perfectly with Ashley's hollow aspirations of winning a Champions League place. He knows what he's doing and people will lap it up. 'He's changed, he's changed!!', people will cry to a David Craig interview whilst in line for the new home strip. Do not trust this club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
