Had a look at Ryder's most recent piece, just a theory because Jones has worked together in the past with him. https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-united-graeme-jones-press-22012760

 

The Martinez situation is interesting.

 

For a start, the club already hold a dossier on the Belgium boss after he emerged as a leading candidate in 2019 when Bruce eventually got the job.

Whether he is allowed to do both jobs at international level and at United is another big question.

 

But if Amanda Staveley and the powers that be have asked Jones, and the man who interviewed Martinez in 2019 Lee Charnley, their opinions, it's hard to imagine the former Wigan manager's name not cropping up in conversation.

 

And Jones is on the record saying they have the same football outlook having worked together for so long both as a player and in coaching 

Fully believe the Belgian FA would have leaked something if we were talking to their manager, remember we have to approach them first to talk to him, especially if he’s had an interview

Fwiw Emery's falling reasonably too, he was one of the names Hope mentioned last week. But as odds have proven it's only something nice to know rather than a fact 472d3376cdd039ff2a47aeb00cf2a410.png


Still a bit strange to see him the new favourite when his name is not in the press for the last week. The odds changes usually reflect what the media are reporting.

If the names linked are out shortlist then there have been leaks.

But not necessarily from our side, or even truthful links/leaks. Agents and managers wanting into the fun and wealth we can now provide, and putting their own names forward etc.

The leaks (if they ARE leaks, which is very doubtful) are unlikely to have come from the club. I do not think that is our new owners style, at all.

 

We will get used to our new owners, and the way they are, eventually!

The press (directly or indirectly) install a new favourite every few days to keep the story turning over, because their previous pick from the start of the week hasn't been appointed. 

 

Its like the Craig Hope article from earlier. Reporting what Graeme Jones has to say isn't going to generate much interest. Throw Roberto's name in there, who has had few mentions to date and it'll get more attention, even if it is hidden down the bottom of the page.
