Yes there are people who want Shearer and seem to think the sun shines out of his arse but in terms of backing from actual fans Sam probably had a larger % backing than Rafa at Liverpool.

Who cares what nationality the coach or players are as long as they are good etc..?

I can envisage Jol with Shearer as his assistant.

good shout

That i cant see happening Nem.

Mike Ashley and Paul Kemsley ae best mates (Kemsley worked for him as a kid and Ashley is one of his backers now) and Kemsley was one of the driving forces to get Jol out of spurs having 'secret' meetings with Ramos.  Cant see his best mate then taking Jol on.

Though stranger things have happened!

Very true.

Your point is a valid one, who will they get in?

Kemsley is the biggest shister around. Nasty pieace of shit.

I just dont get why hes gone if the majority of the fans wanted him there, surly he would still be there?

Steve McClaren with Shearer.

Redknapp will not leave Pompey - IMO.

Steve McClaren would be interesting. I don't think I'd renew my season ticket if that happened, and I'm far more open and rational than the average Newcastle fan.

I had hoped that the spped of the dismissal meant there was someone lined up. It appears there isn't.

Bring back the plc!!!

We all know Mike Ashley is after the Spurs job - just needs to sort out a deal with his his mates on the Spurs boardand find a buyer for Newcastle.  He almost had one in the summer and with Enic a willing seller at the right price i am sure a deal will be done.

I actually think Newcastle have done the right thing.  Big Sam is not a good manager and its a shocking indictment of our managers that him and Maclaren have failed so miserably.  They are both inept with no idea for flair, pace, skill and tactics.  Sam especially is a throwback to the Howard Wilkinson way and he isnt clever enough to adapt.

I like Newcastle and want to see them do well - they now need to find a good foreign coach (maybe working with Shearer who can add some englishness to the management team) and stick with him.  Hindsight is a wonderful thing but i promise i was telling everyone preseason that Sven would do a good job at City.  face it guys English managers are shocking and tactically inept and there is no evidence of this changing.  I would take a top quality foreign coach every day of the week over any of the mediocre English guys out there.
I would have done well at Man City with all the money he's spent.
Big Sam has actually spent very little and was sat mid table. They had no chance of going down so they should have stuck with him and seen how he started next season.

I was at stamford bridge a couple of weeks ago when we lost near the end to a terrible decsion by the linesman,nothing but support the team,no dissent towards the manager.I really think the press had a lot to do with the "sacking" stirring at every oppurtunity.



It will happen to Benitez soon too


(there, get the Liverpool lads on the thread..they think Benitez will be there til he retires!, I think he'll be gone by the end of the season at the latest)


I don't think Benitez will be there longer than 12-18 months, but it wont be the fans forcing him out, its the owners...

Redknapp is trading at odds-on on BF to be their next manager, seems incredibly short to me.

Apparently it's not going to be Harry.  Laid for a small stake just in case.  Harry has said he's happy down South.

Lots of money on the go at the moment just after the 5 Live article.  I laid at 2.08, fingers crossed Harry doesn't change his mind!
