Hold your horses man ffs Got to say I don't know how anyone could have got the impression he was staying after 8 games. He categorically ruled it out several times. Do you not think he was being very cagey regarding many of his answers though. Things like "I hope to be in the stadium next season with Newcastle as a top flight club" and when pressed about his/Joes future saying that would be decided in the summer by other people. That and the fact hes contracted to the BBC and JFK to us, I don't think he could have said much more than he did tbh.. This. Everyone knows he's staying. You could tell by his face, even people that are trying to put an alternative slant on it, they know he's staying too IF WE STAY UP. Every question about afterwards was deflected to "the powers that be" - you'll have to ask them. Everyone knows the crack. I'm tending to agree with this. I think what Alex says about him not discussing anything because he doesn't need to is probably true to an extent but to me, he looked very much like a man who, if given the choice, would snap their hands off to stay next season.

That little exchange at the end with the two presenters was almost more entertaining than the rest of the conference.

Shearer reiterating his 8 games, keep us up stuff. What the fuck is Martin Samuel wearing, man? Also, that room is a total cesspool

Colour me angry he isn't speaking to Gullit or Souness tbh.

8 games and 8 games only apparently. I hope this is all just a red herring. They honestly can't be thinking of going back to Kinnear.

This. Also, him saying that he wants to get 3 points on Saturday. If he can put that into the players...

Ice burn on Dowie

Conference has started on the site. Well, it's a load of press sitting about but can't be long to start now

He's not even trying to be subtle anymore. He's officially jumped the shark. Danny, that is, not Redknapp.

Is that Enrique on the receiving end of Shearer's stink-eye? Looking at Xisco, I reckon. He's probably tried to make a cheeky pass at him but Big Al is having none of it.

Thanks for the expert analysis. Now, back to Jeff and the crew!

:nufc:

Shearer's obviously walked into that ground carrying his massive bollocks in a wheelbarrow and told them how shit is going to go down.

Highlight was him saying someone looked a bit anemic and then citing their blond hair and dimples as a cause.

Rooney looking his usual self. Downside of this is the ITV wankfest.

Quality video. Some of those goals for Blackburn are ridiculous. Shocking choice of song, mind

The majority of them have got to be pisstakes. Funny all the same like.

Obviously didn't get enough bites when you mentioned it in the thread as well?

There'd be hell on.

I think mine ripped Have to get the scarves out though.

Jobs for the boys but what boys they are.

Has 2J got a Shearer video up yet? Might speed things up a bit for you. Saying that, I could probably get off to his Everton goal on repeat.

This fucking club, man.

omfg, overwhelming sense of optimism washing over me for no real reason
