DENNIS WISE’S ill-fated spell may be officially over today, but his input at St James’s Park has been slowly diminishing for months. Wise was a shock arrival for Toon fans when he was appointed executive director along with Tony Jimenez, who made a more low-key exit last year, and Jeff Vetere. What Mike Ashley hoped would be a recruitment dream team, however, has paled into near-insignificance. Wise once enjoyed a relationship with Ashley healthy enough for the Toon tycoon to back him ahead of Kevin Keegan. The former Chelsea star’s operational role, which saw him spend more time clocking up air miles on countless – and some might say pointless – scouting missions, was brought to an abrupt end yesterday by the arrival of Alan Shearer. The Chronicle understands Wise had barely spoken with Ashley and managing-director Derek Llambias since before January, with Joe Kinnear assuming a recruitment role during the transfer window. With Newcastle announcing last night that Wise’s position would not be refilled, it can only deemed as a major rethink of the managerial structure at St James’s Park. Shearer’s return and the appointment of former Crystal Palace and QPR boss Iain Dowie as his assistant reverts to a more traditional approach by the Magpies. That will be met with relief by Toon fans. The Geordie public fully understood the continental management system in place at Newcastle but never endorsed it – nor Wise’s role as transfer chief with the diminutive Cockney holding power above King Kev. Keegan was renowned for his own personal powers of persuasion when it came to transfers. A fine track record which included marquee signings in his first spell in charge like Peter Beardsley, Andy Cole, Rob Lee, Scott Sellars, David Ginola, Tino Asprilla, Les Ferdinand and Shearer himself was blatantly obvious, it seemed, to everybody but the current Toon owners. It is thought Keegan had plans to try to sign proven Liverpool defender Sami Hyypia in the summer and did not rule out audacious moves for David Beckham and one-time Barcelona misfit Thierry Henry – not to mention a monumental claim that Chelsea’s Frank Lampard was interested in coming to Toon. Wise had different ambitions. Buy young, buy foreign, buy cheap. During a summer of speculation, transfer talk linked Newcastle with some of Europe’s lesser bright lights. Wise scouted fresh-faced Swiss international striker Eren Derdiyok and made several trips to Norway to see playmaker Per Ciljan Skjelbred. While summer arrivals like Jonas Gutierrez and Sebastien Bassong have proved to be relative success stories, they have failed to capture the imagination of the Tyneside public in the same way Keegan’s marquee signings did. Bassong’s debut at Doncaster Rovers was met with mystified chants of “46, 46 nobody knows your name!” United then splashed out £10m on Fabricio Coloccini, who later turned out to be the “wow” signing of the summer. Throw into that £5.7m striker Xisco and little-known winger Nacho Gonzalez, who has barely played this season, and fans could see why Keegan was fed up. That was obvious to assembled journalists at Newcastle Airport in July when Keegan turned up to have a plane named after him. KK said he “did not want to talk about football” with just six weeks to go before the big kick off. Surely something was wrong? KK looked drained and powerless. Therefore, there were no surprises among Geordie folk at Keegan’s departure, not least the 2-1 defeat against Hull City which sparked fury on Tyneside. After KK left the club, Wise’s role continued as normal – but it seemed Joe Kinnear was encountering similar problems. Kinnear wanted Peter Lovenkrands to aid the Mags’ relegation battle. Wise did not. That was an example of the slowly-receding power levels of Wise as United’s management system failed to do what it said on the tin. I stood outside St James’s Park some months after Keegan’s departure and watched as a fan told Wise what he thought of the situation. Wise’s laughing-cavalier response to the young Geordie, just yards away from where KK explained to fans why he had sold Andy Cole in 1995, summed up why the ex-Chelsea man was never the right fit for a people’s club like Newcastle United. -

So mincing is like acting super-gay, right? I don't know a ton of gay people, but I think the mincers are no different than extreme kids with the big rings in their ears or Wall Street wannabe types who are talking IMPORTENT BIZNESS on their cell phone while I'm in line at the gas station waiting to pay for a Diet Dew. Some folks don't have much of a personal identity, so they decide to marry themselves to the idea of how society views whatever role they've chosen for themselves. Invariably, they get it wrong by overdoing it because it's more about how they want to be perceived by society rather than just being themselves. I'm not a doctor or a genecticist or whatever, but I can't imagine that in uncivilized areas of the world there are gay men prancing about. Are there men being gay? Sure, probably. I do think biology has a large amount of determination in one's sexual orientation, but to think somewhere in the Amazon there are gay dudes walking around with bent wrists stalking pumas with blowguns or whatever... I don't buy that. I disagree actually. A lot of boys seem to become really camp before they really have any notion of their sexuality. You're implying its an act, I'm sure it isn't. Could be, Rents, could be. I've not seen it in kids, but again, I'm no doctor and I grew up here in the mid-west where being gay is still pretty well frowned upon and I'm sure there's more gay folks around here that are trying to stay in the closet or whatever. Doubt the parents were encouraging little Billy to camp it up whilst doing his morning chores on the farm, know what I mean? Aye, cultural iunfluences will come into it as well. Agree with Meenzers point too. I think being gay is largely accepted in the UK now, even in the North East (at least in Newcastle). Haven't been to one for ages, but gay parties tend to be fun. I've never felt remotely threatened, even when I was chatted up by men quite a bit when I was a teenager. Once went to a gay club in newcastle 20 years ago with another straight friend and our gay boss. It was a very strange night (was 20 years ago). Lots of men dressed in the full kit blacke leathers open leather shirts caps etc. (Try to picture gay bikers). Anyway, each time one mede ey contact you would panic and raise your eyes upwards. Unfortunately upwards was where the club had put many tv's (not trannys) around the room, which displayed men playing with themselves. It was eyes up, eyes down, eyes up..... Sure its much more tasteful these days.

Just been on yahoo answers with, "why do gay men talk funny". Top answer was... Answer number two was a very confusing...

I agree, one of my biggest phobias is getting gang raped by a car full of mincers. My only comfort is that my poor dress sense combined with ugliness will keep them at bay, however I suppose Gays get beer goggles too.

Well a quick shuffle over to youtube found poetry in mincing. But even this is guy "normal" and not really the sort if mincing I was referring to. I can also understand it being developed over time, but surely a couple of youg'uns must just be putting it on.
