TBH, I'm surprised that Allardyce has his reputation damaged through the Newcastle affair if he was being treated anything like KK was. I still think he's a quality manager, but again only if he's allowed to manage/buy/sell who he wants.

Doesnt suprise me one bit this. Newcastle are a crisis club. Things are going to get alot worse before they get better. Lets just hope that doesnt mean relegation :S

"You should of kept Allardyce, in the long run you would of been in a much stronger position. comment by getinthebath (U9563463)"

Allardyce may well have had us relegated last season, he had utter destroyed player moral and had lost the dressing room by the time he went.

Keegan was doing a great job with pretty good results once he got over the post-Sam moral issue and injuries.

What we needed is stability and Keegan was giving that..... what the club did NOT give Keegan was what they promised.

Instead he was made to work under Wise once of the most disagreeable people in football (ask Fergy) who has little to no management experience, never mind challenging for a Premiership title, England and everything else that Keegan has.



And the biggest problem?

Is that the next manager will have to work under Wise and the London mafia and we'll probably NOT see out a season with whomever takes over as manager either.

The only way NUFC will get stability is IF Wise and his merry men go - and that may have to include Ashley now that he has clearly backed Wise over Keegan.

Things seem to be quickly turning into a circus over there lads. Everyday i check the BBC and it seems to get worse by the day. I was talking to a Leeds fan today who gave me a run down of Dennis Wises contribution to Leeds. Didnt fill me with confidence i must admit. Ashley wants some silverware? How about the Championship next year? Should look nice on the shelf

Ashley should leave St James and join the family firm designing wallpaper for his sister Laura. He probably can't do that either but at least it would stop him running a great football club into the ground.
KK brought team motivation and entertaining football to the best supporters in the world.
Ashley and his self seeking gang must go.

This is the beginning of the end of newcastle united football club. The club will be liquidated and two new teams will be formed the gateshead yankees and the jesmond bulls. Soccer ball will only be played on tuesday nights and baseball on saturday afternoons. A smaller venue will be created next to metro centre, which will double up as carpet store on non match days. St james park will flattened and the existing fan base will tend to black and white cotton fields. This will help promote local primary industries and breath new passion into the area with lovely cotton baseball tops for the two new teams.

I am a bit confused by the Director of Football role at newcastle.

At other clubs the role is filled by vastely respected ex coaches who can offer an ear for the manager / coach.

At Biern Munich you have Franz Beconbower, at Barcelona you have Yohan Croif.

At Newcastle you ahve Dennis wise who managed Milwall in the championship and Leeds in League one.

The type of person who sould have had the Director of football role is Bobby Robson who is respected throughout the world and can be a figurehead for the club.

The management team must all be singing from the same song sheet, it appears that at Newcastle they were not and it has resulted in the current position.

I'm an ex-pat living in Dubai and am totally ashamed to be a a black and white. Its a complete farce and I'm going to beg every Arab that I meet here in the middle east to purchase the toon. We must be a better bet than Man City and with better fans. Please Mr Mustaffa buy us ! Sheikh Mohammed have you a few quid to spare ! Anything is better than that fake Geordie Ashley at then helm.

You would have thought that somebody would have spotted terry mac's completely worthless contributions through several managers.

But then, the more this brand new newcastle united comedy goes on, the more you realise that nobody there has had a clue for a long long time.

Newcastle needs ANOTHER change of ownership, another chairman and board.

Just build a gadging big turnstile on the boardrom door. It's a very tiresome joke now.
