José Enrique

Bob’s not exactly keeping his thoughts to himself on this matter, and he didn’t keep his thoughts to himself in his role as a RN phone in pundit. Is it one rule for ex-managers and another for ex-players?

 

the more people who tell it like it is, the better. Bob Moncur is just trotting out the party line. Shameful.

He's got a perfectly valid reason to be cynical about the regime considering they were wholly unprofessional in dealing with him and has had to put up with the same transfer budget shite that the rest have. There's a difference between sniping at the club and sniping at the way it's being run; Keegan's obviously got affection for one but not the other.

 

From an employment perspective [where a manager has to be allowed to manage 1st team affairs] KK successfully suing for constructive dismissal was a great thing. But more importantly the court/tribunal casting aside the club's counterclaim for breach of contract [on KK's part, according to a clause inserted in his contract] avoided a dangerous precedent being set, and no doubt the LMA would've rallied against it.

 

Any manager with a hint of professional integrity [when trying to ply his trade, amidst an untenable working environment] has the right to walk away. It takes some cheek for a club to insert a so-called 'resignation clause' in a contract hereby allowing them to sue, yet expect an old-school & successful manager [like KK] to operate within a deceptive & alien environent, amidst practices that were completely at odds with his principles/operating values & methods.

 

One could never imagine that the simple formality of the managerial merry-go-round [ie. managers resigning] being transformed, or at least attempted to in KK's case, into a minor cash windfall for the balance sheets [as it would've been as KK's successors have been comparitively paid peanuts, basic wages that is]. At least as a once-off in this instance, as potential managers would've cottoned to the fact that abandoning Project Ashley would've amounted to litigation being launched against them.

 

Managers with an ounce of professional integrity [trying to simply do their job amidst the suffocating & demoralising effects of Project Ashley], who would jack it in, have dodged a bullet thanks to the tribunal's ruling.

there are so many points I've raised that you don't respond to, and those you do are so hypocritical its staggering.

 

I'm starting to think you really do get your football/NUFC knowledge from skunkers after all

If you say it often enough, it must be true !!!!

haha, I've answered everything you asked man, and I've been saying for years what Mike Ashley would do to the football club. YOU - on the other hand, have absolutely no idea other than the rubbish spouted on skunkers.

 

You didn't really support the club pre-1992 very much did you ? This is why you are so blinded by hatred, and have absolutely no idea what Keegan has done for it, and the people who ran the club from that point until they sold it.

 

Laughable.

 

Have you bookmarked this thread, because you're going to look a right mug in a few years time, although you do already.

Not one answer ever Lot's of piffle mind.

I suppose getting the Hunters bus as a kid from Seaton Delaval to Whitley then into town to sit at the front of the Gallowgate right behind the goal (looking back a stupid place to watch the match from BTW) doesn't count as being a supporter, neither does most home games in the 70/80's (work permitting) doesn't count either, liked the centre paddock if I was flush and was a great view sitting on the scaffolding/planks that were permanently there for the Shoot camera's.

 

You're such an ubber supporter I'm sure you were there the night the Wrexham game was called off at half time due to the rain and wind (I was and nearly fucking drowned), can you recall the REALLY bizarre event first half, and at which end, concerning the Wrexham keeper ?? That was pre 92 I believe.

 

Anyway I do not have to justify shit to you, you can keep shouting your deluded crap all you want mate. I'm quite happy being objective, blinded by hate, geez

 

BTW Tony Green's testimonial was against Boro (1974), not Sunlun as you stated some time back. I was there, were you ??

 

Are you sure you were a supporter pre 92.

haha, you ARE blinded by hatred, I don't need to justify myself to anybody, I bought my first season ticket in 1973-74 and supported the club home and away via the London Branch of the Supporters Club during the 1980's courtesy of the man who ran it by the name of Harry Rodden who is now sadly passed away.

 

If I quoted the mackems rather than the smoggies I'll give you that one, as I have the programme too. I also have the newspaper cuttings of the day his career was pronounced to be finished. See some of us can admit when we are wrong - although somebody had a testimonial at SJP when they paraded the FA Cup I remember that, were you at that game ?

Going to a few training sessions and going to Tony Greens testimonial - you'll have to do a lot better than that.

 

Again. Bookmark this thread. You haven't got a clue what Kevin Keegan, and the Halls and Shepherd did for this club, which you more or less admit, which says everything. Mike Ashley will NEVER match them, and neither might anybody else, what a pity you watched underachieving dross for years [so you say] then didn't "enjoy the best years for ages" when they came along, instead worried about warehouses, dividends, and a non-existent threat of administration.

 

Laughable. This is the shit that is posted on skunkers and Newcastle Online man.

 

Bookmark this thread. Do you still think Liverpool are "bigger" than us, have you seen their crowds and the fact they can't fill a smaller ground when they lose a few games ? No team in the world would fill a 52000 stadium on the back of so many years of disappointments like NUFC do [apart from the years of the Champions League and europe between 1992 and 2007 when they all came back again], and if you truly understood the club, you would understand THAT if nothing else.

 

Edit. If you really had a season ticket in the 1970's, next to the shoot cameras you must have been close to me, see the photo avatar for Paddock Lad, which was taken by ME Although, my comments stand. I don't think many people who watched the club during those years fail to appreciate playing in the Champions League and Europe regularly, if you didn't, then your head really is up your arse.

There really is no point as your reading comprehension is nil.

 

I've never been to a training session in my life nor did I ever say I had an ST in the 70's, always pay on the gate, work permitting and only centre paddock "if I was flush", otherwise Gallowgate end usually.

 

Were you at that Wrexham game, midweek and howling a gale and pissing down ?? Part timers didn't go out to a game in that weather.

 

I never kept programmes nor have a photgraphic memory of games but remember some things, do you remember Pop Robson scoring direct from a free kick against Arsenal but the ref dissallowed it because George Graham wasn't 10 yards ?? Think we lost 1-0 in the end, could be wrong mind.

 

The most one sided game I ever saw in my life was against Sheff Utd at home, we absolutely mullered them, but lost 4-1, Tony Currie scored a couple, maybe even a hat-trick, I think the 4 goals where the only time they got out of their half, unbelieveable it was.

 

Favourite "old" goal, Tommy Craig left foot (obviously) volley against Spurs at the gallowgate end, was sat right behind it in the "new" stand (must have been really flush that night).

 

You see I really did go a lot pre 92 mate, believe it or not, but it's of no consequence.

 

Finally, like it or not, Liverpool, in the eye's of the football world are currently (and for years have been) a bigger club than us. Indisputable FACT, and I hate them above all others.

Used to get on in Holywell, had to get off in Whitley and for the life of me I can't remember how we got to town. Think The Deleval to Whitley bus was in fact the North Shields route and we had to change onto another for the rest of the way. Memory dims with age !!!

Before your dad or before my mate's dad? I though your dad was a judge?

 

His mam and him lived in Monkseaton and his Dad lived up in Delaval. Not sure if they were ever married, cant remember his first name. If you were going to name the colour scheme of that bus nowadays, 'nicotine brown' would be about right.

I was just kidding, I was parodying the one-upmanship in the thread. My Dad isn't a judge btw that's manc-mag's sense of humour at work. I remember the Hunter's buses though.

Or get off at either West Monkseaton, Monkseaton or Whitley and get the train up to town.

 

Mention of the Hunters bus didn't half get the memories going.

Went from being a nipper with me dad (mid 60's to early 70's), Ronnie Tatum's sister was our neighbour, until aforementioned Hunters bus and NUFC too over my affections, still went to Shields as and when NUFC were away though.

Used to get off next to Woolies in Whitley, then changed onto gawd knows what, was there not a Hunters Whitley to town bus that met the Deleval to Shields one ???? Beside Wollies was their stop, weren't allowed in the bus station I think as that belonged to United.

 

Do remember the train sometimes though, used to get off at Manors
