  1. I think there is a lot of assumption on how the club is run in the media, they seem certain that Dennis Wise is pulling the strings along with Paul Kelmsley, and I'm not sure I believe that, all this "why is the club run from London ?", well if Wise and co are focusing on recruitment of young talent for the club why on earth would they need to be based in an office somewhere in SJP ??
  2. Isn't that the old crone that opens beer bottles with her clunge ?

  8. If Mr Wash is responsible for the "talent" we have recruited recently then we are well rid !
  9. Not a patch on Temple of the Dog! Love them both, but as you probably know Temple of the Dog was a tribute album to the dead lead singer of Mother Love Bone, so without one you wouldn't have the other. Great music though.

  11. Perhaps I'm just being cynical, but when I read "Next two games the most important of my career, Steve Harper" I can't help thinking, they are going to choke or bottle it and balls it up.

  17. Daily Mail Keegan told to start winning, or it's a role upstairs EXCLUSIVE by MATT LAWTON - Last updated at 22:55pm on 13th March 2008 Newcastle are becoming increasingly jittery about their Barclays Premier League future and are demanding that Kevin Keegan improves results in the next two games. Sportsmail understands that billionaire owner Mike Ashley is concerned about Keegan's apparent inability to guide his side clear of relegation danger and is prepared to make his second change of manager. Newcastle have taken just two points from the eight League matches they have played since Keegan's return and have fallen dramatically down the table. They could be in the bottom four before they even play at Birmingham City on Monday, with only their opponents, Fulham and Derby below them. The slide has forced Ashley to consider asking Keegan to step aside already and take a position in the St James' Park boardroom, allowing a new manager to come in for a salvage operation. Dennis Wise, recently appointed executive director (football), would be the obvious choice to take over after his success at Leeds and with Millwall, whom he guided to the FA Cup Final and into Europe. Terry Venables is an alternative short-term option, but on Thursday night Newcastle chairman Chris Mort denied that such a move for Venables is on the cards and he backed Keegan — following a vote of confidence after Newcastle's last home defeat. Mort said: 'Kevin has come to a club that didn't change its manager in the middle of the season because things were going well. Kevin came in knowing it was going to be difficult to turn it round.' However, for months the St James' Park hierarchy denied any intention of removing previous manager Sam Allardyce and, if Keegan fails to secure precious points in Newcastle's next two games — away to Birmingham, followed by Fulham at home the following Saturday — sources believe Ashley will press the panic button. A defeat in the Midlands could leave Newcastle in the drop zone and make their game against Keegan's former club Fulham vitally important. If Newcastle return from St Andrew's without a point, Ashley may conclude that it is too big a risk to leave Keegan in charge of a must-win game. After investing more than £250million in the club, Ashley will be determined to protect his investment. Keegan remains upbeat and on Thursday night insisted his players have a 'nine-game season' to secure their status. Although he would not welcome a new role, his £3m-a-year salary is a considerable compensation and it has enabled him to resolve issues in his business life. Keegan has denied rumours of a bust-up with Aussie striker Mark Viduka, who has played only once under the ex-England boss.
  18. Beleaguered boss Kevin Keegan has effectively been given a two-match ultimatum to salvage Newcastle's season, according to reports. The Daily Mail claims that, with Keegan having failed to inspire a single victory since his much-heralded return to St James' Park in January, owner Mike Ashley is ready to press 'the panic button'. Ahead of Monday's vital fixture with fellow strugglers Birmingham, the Magpies are on the verge of falling into the relegation zone. Ashley has become so concerned by their plight that he is said to be 'prepared to make his second change of manager' should the situation not improve rapidly. 'If Keegan fails to secure precious points in Newcastle's next two games - away to Birmingham, followed by Fulham at home the following Saturday - sources believe Ashley will press the panic button,' claims the Mail. 'The slide has forced Ashley to consider asking Keegan to step aside already and take a position in the St James' Park boardroom, allowing a new manager to come in for a salvage operation. 'Dennis Wise, recently appointed executive director (football), would be the obvious choice to take over after his success at Leeds and with Millwall, whom he guided to the FA Cup final and into Europe. 'Terry Venables is an alternative short-term option.'
  19. No account of fixture list. What evidence of good tactics did Allardyce show? What evidence of good buys? I have concerns but on the whole I disagree with your view. Under Allardyce we were not beating teams we should have been beating comfortably, under Keegan we are getting stuffed by teams we don't expect to beat.
  20. Isn't Easter the traditional time to string up the Messiah ? I'll pop down to B&Q for some timber and some 6" nails.
  21. Raikkonen, I think Hamilton will believe his own hype too much this season.
