Di Canio is a loon mind if anyone defined his give it your all despite complete lack of talent motto it was Lee Cattermole.

Kinnear has went on holiday? He just got the job! Agree with Fish why do they do this "we'll start figuring things out at this date" the window has been open a while now.

Aye why do we get a patch and they don't, fuckups. Seriously make the numbers red like West Brom got and have stripes, why is that so difficult?

The fact that what you've said there's true makes it even more depressing they picked Russia for 2018, I still can't get over that mind. How did they stand there and announce Russia 2018 and Qatar 2022 without bursting out laughing.

Nail on the head, there's no explanation for the appointment because he's incapable of doing any sort of job for the club. Unless, of course, that job is to come in and fuck up all the other employees hard work.

So can we get rid of him now?

Nee blobs? crisp packets and laccy bands it is then

Think your placement is right, just depends on how many nights Big Joe spends in the Diamond with Brucey. Couple of heavy ones coupled with midnight phone calls to pards and Carr and we're well into mayhem.

It's hardly that much of a trek he'd be fine he left for the game on Boxing Day morning . Unless he's playing in the game and has to prepare with the other players like.

we in the mayhem bit LTB? That's where I reckon we are. So going off the chart we might have a canny season in 2-3 year!

So he's come in so they can both hate him instead . "Trusted drinking buddy" glad mike bases such important decisions on who he likes to have a few pints with.

Aye it's very odd, we were poor last season but it'd be fair to say we were being run in a stable way. If we struggled that much when stable why rock the boat like this and risk doing even worse? unless he honestly believes that Kinnear is the man to guide the footballing future of the club, it's either that or he just wants to piss everyone off, worryingly I'm not sure which worries me more . In all honesty it just baffles me, he looks to Arsenal for an example of how he wants to run but then after a rough year he's scrapped it.

Seems to be Ashley's way, he weathers the storm to implement something and when the fans finally begin to accept it (like we did this time as the scouting system was bringing in talent and even though we worry about losing players we could feel comfortable with Carr and co.) then he decides to go and change everything. He did this with Allardyce in all iirc, fans had finally began to just accept he was the manager and we just had to get on with it after uproar for a while then he sacked him.

Safer to assume Tom is being serious. I keep hearing he's a really nice bloke, I just find it so unbelievable because he comes across as one of the biggest doilems I've ever heard in my life in interviews.

didn't know who Douglas was so he vetoed it. So he has zero trust in any of the scout team? Brilliant. What's the point in having Carr then? Honestly what the fuck was Ashley thinking with this one. We've got someone who should be sectioned on a power trip.

he was right mind, we really had no idea how nasty he could be resigning from a no doubt lucrative job so he could give joe kinnear complete power. We're fucked.

Who could he possibly get better than Douglas, on a free, for the reported under 50k wages. This bloke hasn't wasted time has he 2 phone calls making us the national laughing stock and now he's apparently turned away a quality player.

Good position in the league under him? He was a total fucking disaster, are the PR lot really trying to make up history with every lie that pours out of the wretches mouth. I keep hearing kinnear is a good bloke but I really fail to see how, he comes across as a right twat in every interview I've ever heard him give.

Honestly after hearing that he has to of just went mental and started making shit up about us, he's fucking insane. He's like a parody of himself, the club should release a statement soon it's fucking embarrassing.

Results from 1908 and 1928 made that list, fucking hell .

could honestly seeing this be true. "We now realize what an ill informed decision it was to appoint a man who doesn't know anyone's name and abuses people in press conferences as the person in charge of the direction of the club." On the plus side there's absolutely zero chance of getting Charles insomnia back now.

the more you think about it the worse and worse it gets. The gift that keeps on giving. Honestly man it takes one interview to know he's a complete football dinosaur, just looking to have another mate for their nights in aspers.

If he gets more than a pack of space raiders a week it's far too much. Can we not take the money that is being sunk into this 3 year waste an add it to the transfer fund or player wage budget, seriously we could no doubt pay a good set of youth player wages with what we'll be paying this ball sack. Really can't understand how he can be any help with transfers the man has barely been involved with footy for years, and even when he was he's not exactly known for bring able to spot talent. As for the overseeing playing style I can't wait to see what we come up with for next year with that tactical master mind guiding us.

What a shambles man, the bloke is completely clueless so I cannot see any possible benefit to appointing him DoF. Weren't there stories about him kicking his feet up, with a cuppa watching TV while the coaches did all the training when he was manager here? Seems like he's just giving his mate a job tbh, or feels bad for the bloke. Can't really see how this is motivated by wanting to improve the football side of things, as like others have said Kinnear has clearly shown he's got little to nowt to offer on that front.

fucking hell. A great away day that no one living was at. I remember when we beat them 5-1 and after I mentioned it 2 days later to a mackem he replied "you're still fucking going on about that!" A week later he said it wasn't that embarrassing as they beat us 9-1 once . Think that game was before subs and the offside rule, and I was heard Newcastle ended the game with about 8 players as they got kicked off the park.
