That channel is cringeworthy.

to be honest mate, with all that's gone on and with the stake as high as they are for both parties, I could see meetings happening as and when it's possible. Keegan wouldn't go to a meeting for a handshake and a ballscratch. This is going to be something official, if it's official enough to get them both in the same room it's more likely to be arranging a settlement plan than coming to a managerial agreement. That is the common sense view, but this is Newcastle United......

As it was said earlier, I'm sure you don't discuss contract termination settlements on a Friday night.

From Guillem Balague's SKY Sports page. X FACTOR Hi Guillem, I'm a Newcastle fan so I was wondering whether you could tell me a bit more about Xisco, who we have just signed from Deportivo? I'm a regular watcher of La Liga on Sky Sports and the only thing I remember about this player is that he wore a headband last season to help him score goals! This makes me worry, but if he is anything like our other signings from La Liga - Jonas Guttierrez and Fabricio Coloccini - then I'd be happy. My main question is: is he a prolific goalscorer? Thanks. Tariq, Sheffield GUILLEM REPLIES: No, Xisco is not a prolific goalscorer and never will be! But you need strikers who do other things, too! He's a tall, strong guy who can hold the ball up and link well with midfield. He's a work in progress but he has the ability to be like Emile Heskey; a better Heskey if he gets his head down and works hard. And it will be nice if he can link up with Michael Owen because he's a different type of striker.

I don't think you can read too much in the betting, its just a reflection on an influx of bets on Keegan.

That is exactly how Martin O'Neill manages too.

The demo and trailer are both on the Playstation Store do download this morning.

Didn't realise they had made a movie ?

Toon chief Ashley tells Wise: Get me a new boss by the weekend Dennis Wise has been given 48 hours to find Newcastle a new manager by Toon owner Mike Ashley. One week after Kevin Keegan walked out on the St James' Park club for a second time, Ashley has told director of football Wise to bring in a top man by the end of the week in a bid to prevent Magpies fans demonstrating at this weekend's home match with Hull City. Reports in The Sun suggest Ashley may even attend the game despite initially intending to stay away - and has now added Dick Advocaat and Guus Hiddink to Gus Poyet and Paul Ince to his list of candidates. A Toon source said: 'Mike is desperate to get the fans back onside and thinks getting someone in by the end of the week will ease tensions a bit. He was planning to stay away on Saturday but is starting to believe it would look better if he fronted up the situation and didn’t run scared.'

Happy Birthday

Coaching career Monaco After retiring as a player, he went into football management. He was the head coach of AS Monaco in France's Ligue 1, leading Monaco to the French League Cup title in 2002/2003 and to its first UEFA Champions League final in 2004. He resigned on 19 September 2005 after a poor start to the season, and disagreement with club's president. Juventus On July 10, 2006, Deschamps was named head coach of Juventus, after Fabio Capello resigned in the wake of the match-fixing scandal. Deschamps' first game in charge of Juventus was highly successful when Juventus beat Alessandria 8-0. But poor results followed after Juventus was knocked out in the 3rd round of the Coppa Italia and the 1-1 draw at Rimini on the first day of the league season. But the following 3 games in which Juventus beat Vicenza 2-1, Crotone 0-3, and Modena 4-0 made it look like Deschamps had everything under control. Also Deschamps helped Juventus to win their first competition since being relegated (due to the match fixing scandal) which was the Birra Moretti Cup in which Juventus beat Inter Milan 1-0 and Napoli in a penalty shoot out. He led Juventus to its return to Serie A, which was confirmed on May 19, 2007 with a 5-1 away win at Arezzo. On May 26, several media announced Deschamps had resigned as Juventus head coach following several clashes with the society; this was however denied by Juventus itself a few hours later. Later that evening after the game against Mantova which confirmed Juve as Serie B champions, Deschamps confirmed to the media that he had indeed resigned. The news was then made official by Juventus a few hours later.

I thought that it might explain his hair due to the fact he wasn't bringing in a wage

I think he was released by AC Milan after he crocked his knee again.

Another instance where someone who never goes to the ground tried to tell those of us that do how best to go about our business. You could probably include most of fleet street in that statement tbh.

no, that's colliding hard-ons.

Apple has unveiled the latest version of its iPod Nano, featuring what it says are the thinnest measurements yet. The fourth generation Nano was launched at a US press conference by Apple chief Steve Jobs, who announced new shuffle and library features. He also listed the Nano's environmental credentials, including arsenic-free glass and a mercury and PVC-free body that is "highly recyclable". The Nanos are expected to sell in the UK for £109 ($191) for the 8GB version. The 16GB version will retail at £149. Speaking live in San Francisco, Mr Jobs unveiled Apple's new Genius function which allows users to create automatic playlists from the iPod's library with the click of a button. He said the function worked by taking one song and creating a playlist based on the user's song library and could also suggest other tracks the user might want to buy. Mr Jobs said the new Nano also had a "shake to shuffle" mode, which sends the gadget to shuffle mode with the flick of a wrist. 'Lots of fun' The Apple chief executive officer said the company had sold more than 160 million iPods since its introduction seven years ago. An updated iPod Touch - the closest cousin to the iPhone - was also announced at the event. It is thinner than previous models and has integrated volume controls and a built-in speaker for "casual listening" and will also include the Genius function. New software for the iPhone - which will be available free to all users - would "fix a lot of bugs" including dropped calls and connection problems reported by customers. Mr Jobs said: "We're really, really excited about all these products. We think people are going to have a lot of fun."

although statistically, he may be correct.
