Chaser

Something clearly happened on Monday for Keegan to walk out at such a crucial point in the season. He's obviously tried to work with the regime or else he would have been off as soon as they were all appointed. Theres obviously been pressure put on somewhere and its triggered him off.

Can't see any improvement for the Toon. I take it you have dropped the 'army' out of the Toon now? So we're guessing Spurs then? Houghton

good WUM. He can stay

Lets have Ian Holloway in. At least he'll have us laughing before we go sinking down into the Championship

I am thinking about how long it will take until I get over this and if I will ever be able to develop the same passion watching Newcastle again. At the moment something has died in me. I would never have become a Newcastle fan if it hadn't been for my boyhood adoration of Keegan. I got over 1997 because Internet was very new to me. So I got all the reaction with some delay and could settle with it then. Now is different. It's childish, but I am close to tears. I have been going through a difficult time in the last couple of months with my mother diagnosed having severe cancer. Knowing that Keegan is in charge of Newcastle again gave me something to cheer about. Only a couple of week ago I was in Newcastle and excited like a small child seeing all the Keegan related merchandise. I was even so stupid and bought one of those tacky T-Shirts with Keegan No. 1 at the back. I probably jinxed it. This has all suddenly gone. There is just emptiness and sadness left. I remember when KK left last time, I was only 15 and back then it was truly gutting, because the whole legacy which I had grown up with once knowing more about football, was gone. Newcastle without KK? Those were heady days because of the passion that the team invoked, the quality of the team which we had at the time. They appointed Dalglish and although I was gutted he'd left I thought that Dalglish could have put the final piece in the Jigsaw after his efforts with Blackburn. But then he started tearing the team apart. The stars started leaving and we all know what happened after that. This time around its different. We're 11 years on, Im older, KK's older and our position in the game is different. Its truly sad that KK has left in these circumstances but back then there was always a next step, another option to come in, and finish the good work which had started. Now we dont know who owns the club (we really dont - who is he and what does he want?), has he got the supporters at heart (like FFS always said he had) or is he just in this to make money? I cant believe im saying this, but at least with FFS we knew that his aim was always to bring success to the club, even if he was inept in his decisions

Shearer wouldnt risk his reputation. Ashley would probably change the name of Shearers to Wise's bar if he was sacked as well.

Surely someone who posts on Skunkers, NO and here should orchestrate what each set of fans is thinking and then make .com aware of this. .Com will no doubt publicly state what the most popular option is and as a lot of non message boarders go to .com, the word will spread.

Has anyone thought that MA could be Danny B? His best mate is a close Spurs fan, and they were pissed off that we continually were better than them. MA let Spurs get at Modric, he was willing to get rid of all of the players at a price and seems disinterested in what is good for the club. Once we're that shit, he could go back and tell Kelmsley that it was job done.

I think what makes it worse is that Ashley's probably been laughing at us since he came. Wearing KK shirts, standing with the boys. It all looks to be a complete joke now and a very shallow attempt at making us think he gave a shit. Im not sure he's in it for the football, or else we would have seen him back down in these discussions and give Kev what he wanted. I just honestly cant see where the club goes from this. Ridsdale at Leeds/Ellis at Villa, theyve seen nothing yet.

Curbs got 5 minutes at the top of the hour on SSN, So far we've had 1 1/2hrs of Newcastle reaction. Says a lot doesnt it really

I'M PLEASED SOMEONES SENSE OF HUMOUR IS STILL ALIVE. Have you just seen his interview Stevie? I couldnt argue with anything that he said. The blokes a bit of a chocolate gangster and likes to get about, but he did say a few good things like Chocolate Ganster?!?? Ive seen that he likes to get himself on telly at any opportunity, whether that be in Drama or Newcastle Utd Drama.

Why Bilic? Has never managed a club side. I honestly cant think of who I'd want to come in now.

I agree with as far as showing up the board for what they are, but im still devastated he's left. Just watching all of the footage on SSN of when Kev came back and seeing him celebrate on the touchline etc makes me even more disappointed because thats the last time that we'll ever see that.

Steve Wraith talks a lot of sense. I very much doubt that Ashley will be allowed to stand with the supporters purely because the police wont let him

Id love to think that we could get another owner in and then reappoint Keegan but that is never going to happen. Keegan leaves with a 28% win record

Can we delete this thread?

Although I no longer have an ST, I would say that 1 would be my preferred option, if I was going to the game. Form some kind of picket around the stadium encouraging people not to go in (Except away fans), but obviously giving people a choice. Wait outside the ground making a right noise about the current regime and then 30 minutes into the game, enter the stadium and fill it up for half time. 2nd half give the cameras what they want with a voiciferous opinion. Thats a very clear message to the board. There needs to be a complete boycott of the club shop & sports direct. I would also refuse to drink in there, but understand that some cant go that far.

Whats the odds on the Charvers kicking off outside SJP?

If he had better options at his disposal, would he have kept them? We're threadbare as it is

Cant see any way out of this for MA & chums now to be honest. Theyre in charge of a club whos fans hold him in contempt. Totally & utterly gutted I am gutted for those who have 3 yr ST deals too.

Are people resigned to this? I thought there would have been a post explosion..

Dont expect to see Ashley sat with the fans

Itll be someone associated with Spurs. He's trying to turn us into the Spurs of the North. Wise & Poyet will be sat in the dugout.
