What if he appoints another Souness? And how long will any success last until the mismanagement kicks in again, if for example we got a half decent manager? I understand what you're saying and it's good you highlighting his good points because it adds a bit of balance to the debate and objectivity but when I look at Liverpool, man Utd, Arsenal et all, every single season their aim is to win the League. That should be our aim. But it's not nor ever has been Freddy Shepherd's and this is one of the reason's why it will never happen under his reign. For one, no manager will ever get complete control. Look at all the challenging club's, the manager has complete control on everything. The business people look after the business side of things and the manager looks after the footballing side. FS doesn't like working like that. You just have to read bits of Sir Bobby's book or read a few books about KK. Once the club went PLC Shepherd and Co. got really hands on, and their grip is tight. You can have a bit of room, but take up too much and you get the boot. Sir Bobby wanted Mouringho in, but FS wouldn't sanction it. He also wanted to sell Shearer to Liverpool but FS wouldn't sanction it. Right or wrong, you have to give the manager complete control on such managers otherwise as a partnership, it will breakdown, it will never work. Shepherd would never appoint a foreign manager because a foreign manager wants complete control, the better ones anyway. His decision making has been shown up to be very very poor over the last few years. No intelligent football Chairman at a club like Newcastle would appoint Souness, arguably one of the worst manager's in the League. It would be like handing over your Jaguar to a back alleyway mechanic, you just know it's gonna come back fucked. His timing of his decisions are awful, showing no foresight or planning whatsoever. His comments to the press do not inspire or lead either. He has no leadershio qualities. None of the fans respect or admire him. I doubt the players care a great deal so long as they get paid and the football community see him as a big oaf who can't keep his trap shut. Basically he is a very very poor Chairman on all levels. If he was manager of the team, we'd be wanting him out. The day he and the rest of the board go is the day we can move forward as a club and start to fulfil our promise. In the meantime we will continue with these cycles we spin in. Good form, poor form, crisis to crisis. 18879[/snapback] what Greames son??

i'm not on Souness's back anyway!! as for the board, i still want them out no matter who they sign, -
with reference to Rob Earnshaw, i would certainly take him for 2-3mil, he would be a great asset, saw a bit of him last year, all be it on Sky, like htt and papa say he's lightning quick and would get us goals, something which i think we may lack at the moment
-
yes!! what a joke he was injured on int duty last time, jesus wept someones havin a laugh!!

please can i take a huge risk and say the following................... i am a mod on the other site and to be honest enjoy both boards, the old board had great members, they have moved on and split between this and the other, so what!! i'm sick of the bitching and backstabbing, at the end of the day we are all nufc supporters!! its not like one board is full of the great unwashed is it!!! i was not around in the old days before the merge so i dont know what the history is, and to be honest i dont give a shite! so please can we just get on!! i really enjoy the craic on this board as much as the other one, i like to think i'm one of the un-noticed posters on the boards as i dont really get involved with any squabbles, anyway thats all i have to say please dont shoot me i want to be your friend too :-)

more info from .com Latest from Deportivo, via the La Voz de Galicia newspaper, Thursday: Albert Luque, forward of Deportivo is getting closer to signing for Newcastle, after he withdrew himself from training before the rest of his team-mates this morning. Sources at the club recognised that these actions indicate that talks between the clubs are headed down the right path, even though at this moment the deal hasn't been completed for the Spanish international. Even though it looks like the negotiations between the clubs were over, especially after Newcastle showed their interest for Michael Owen, The Magpies, whom Depor played in the semi-finals of the Intertoto Cup, reignited their interest over the past few hours. Whether that means we've upped our bid is uncertain - or that we hope to exploit the fact that the Spanish side failed to qualify for the UEFA Cup, losing a potential revenue stream in the process. Perhaps crucially, the departure of Viana on loan to Valencia would make any new bid a purely cash-based one - unless they'd like Faye.....
