Hhtoon Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 If another week made the difference between Martinez and one of the top targets then I'd wait. Don't agree with momentum and positive uplift sentiments when you've got a long term strategy - momentum and positivity will ebb and flow and then you're left with the underlying reality. Look at OGS and the impact he had initially Vs the present. Unfortunately we're left in a shit position thanks to SB and the horrific start so they may need to be a bit more pragmatic....though hopefully not as far as Martinez Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyc35i Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 I am more convinced that someone like Steven Gerrard walking through the door is the catalyst that we need right now to improve results from the offset. But it looks as though he’s not really been in the running based on what you read because he’s currently in a job Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HTT II Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Fuck it, pay/do whatever it takes to get Rafa back, I think he’d keep us up and get a tune out of this shower of shite as he did for several years, especially if backed well in January. I can’t think of many/any who would come in and keep us up right now, that’s how bad it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure he is as I think he would have been in already by now. I honestly think they are trying to get somebody already in a job currently. Going to be interesting this week to see what happens.

I'm not saying it will happen, but perhaps he could be a back-up / temporary choice, until our first choices realise we are safe from relegation later in the season?

KaKa Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 (edited) Can only see the intro bit of that Times article, but it seems all interviews are done now, thank God. And Staveley has put together her recommendations for a number of key positions to restructure the club, and that is being shared with PIF leadership for their final sign off, and so I imagine this will all be sorted this week. Very interested to see who will be coming in. Big week for the club. Quote Newcastle United will accelerate the process of appointing a new manager and sports director after the Saudi Arabia-led £305 million takeover of the club. The Sunday Times understands that minority owner and club director Amanda Staveley is due to make recommendations on the dual roles this week to the Public Investment Fund (PIF), the Saudi sovereign wealth fund that holds 80 percent of Newcastle’s shares. Staveley, whose PCP Capital investment company brokered the controversial takeover, earning a management contract to run Newcastle, has led interviews of a series of candidates for positions central to a plan to restructure the relegation-threatened club into one capable of competing for the Premier League title within five years.
