Isegrim 8876 Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Anal Oliver was just on SSN. Souness and Shepherd are having a meeting sometime this week so Shepherd can 'get the answers to some questions'. He said that Shepherd wouldn't give the job to someone who turned it down before (Allardyce) and the only reason for Souness being here as long as he has been is due to a lack of suitable candidates (NOT Hitzfeld or Le Guen, then) 73959[/snapback] Hitzfeld isn't available at this time. What I was asking myself already a couple of days ago is that during the summer and before Souness always said how he is in contact with Fat Fred all the time. Now it is as the two are not communicating with each other any more. E.g. Souness says that he doesn't know if he has money to spend in the transfer window. Eh? The manager doesn't know what he is allowed to do? To me it looks like the fat controller already had started to distance himself from his most important member of staff.

Gemmill 34640 Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 What really matters isn't that events have proven Gem to be wrong, it's that it looks like it's taken FS too long to see what a handful of people on here could see 12 months ago. Souness has been allowed to fcuk the club up and it'll take any manager some time now to put things right, imo. I don't care whether Gem ever understands this, I just hope FS does, hopefully today. 73861[/snapback] For the umpteenth time: I said that Souness needed time to prove himself one way or the other. He's used that time to prove that he isn't good enough. Which doesn't make me wrong because he still needed that time to prove his inadequacy in his role as manager of Newcastle United (not Liverpool, Blackburn, or any other club he may have been at in the past). It was simply the true, 100% correct statement that "A new manager needs time to prove himself" that makes me RIGHT and not WRONG. FACTARAMA. 73891[/snapback] Gemmill, you were wrong because you thought he was the man for the job when he came here. That is all I am saying, just admit you were wrong on that aspect and I will never bring it up again. 73902[/snapback] I didn't think that you knobber! When I first saw his appointment I remember it vividly: I was abroad and I saw it on the BBC website and was as underwhelmed as anyone else. But after the initial disappointment I just thought "Ah well, he's here now. Let's see how the bloke does." Meanwhile, in Newcastle Airport's departure lounge........CARNAGE!!! 73910[/snapback] The first post I read after coming back from Barcelona (nearly 2 weeks after his appointment) was you saying something like "The more I think about it, the more I think Souness will be good for our club.....". Followed by "Anyone who doesn't think he should get AT LEAST 2 years in the job is a f*****g idiot". Anyway, this is getting beyond pointless now, and I can't prove it, so we may as well drop it. 73914[/snapback] Making stuff uuuuuup. I did say the thing about giving him 2 years like. And you were fucking idiot numero uno at the time IIRC. I've revised that time period downwards now btw, but don't worry, your "fucking idiot" status remains unaffected. 73916[/snapback] Cheers for that like. How was I, or am I, a fucking idiot, when most things I predicted under Souness came to pass? 73918[/snapback] It was a joke. Now stop crying.

If there is a lack of suitable candidates, it's because Shepherd is so incompetent that he refuses to look past the usual gang of mediocre British managers (Allardyce excluded).
