blurightthru (U9034567) posted Jan 10, 2008 Newcastle will get exactly what they deserve from this - zilch.They haven't got a clue about building for success which is why they haven't won anything for almost 40 years.When they were in with a chance of some stability and long term improvement,what did they do - sack the manager (Bobby Robson).I predict that within two seasons(not counting what is left of this one),they will have sacked the new appointment.

RedMan7095 (U10808820) posted Jan 10, 2008 Newcastle have always been crap and starting from step one all over again doesn't help. Why does every Newcastle supporter think that they should be aiming for European spots. It will take a good 10 years for Newcastle to even reach a top 4 club.

VRossi_2008 (U10808937) posted Jan 10, 2008 I totally agree with Goonsbury, why all of a sudden is Newcastle a 'Top 5' team? Admittedly i support Everton and yes we always have rollercoaster seasons but i believe we are a 'Top 6' club and have been for many years but accept there will be seasons when that will not happen. Even the true fans of the top clubs will admit that sometimes success isn't easy nor straightforward but the hierachy at Newcastle seems a joke! They seem to think becuase they had the Shearers that they are a massive club, well you are not. Yes you have a BIG ground but that don't mean jack as this seasons proves. Standing by your manager and willing the team is the key, but as with most clubs you have got ridden of your best asset.....your manager!

jane_clay (U10809645) posted Jan 11, 2008 It is coming quite annoying to keep reading in articles that 'The fans' choice would clearly be former Newcastle striker Alan Shearer'. This is not true. As a Newcastle United fan I have not spoken to one fellow fan that believes this to be so. Yes, one day in years to come it would be good to see Shearer as a manager but, please you journalists out there, do not undermine the fans of Newcastle and assume that we want a manager at Newcastle that has had no managerial experience whatsoever!
