The Fish 10857 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Well Trophyshy said he was excited and you used the names being bandied about in the press as a reason not to be Dave. to be fair alex, you're just fishing for an argument now. Trophyshy was responding to my "nervous" post intimating that he's excited, I replied with those two managers because, in all honesty, that's the "talent" I'm expecting... hence my disillusionment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just surprised you've changed your tune about the press all of a sudden. In all fairness they've predicted practically nothing rightly about the club since Mort and Ashley took over. They were even totally in the dark re: Allardyce going when he did. Look at all the stuff about selling the club and buying Spurs and numerous other stories etc. I'm of the 'wait and see' frame of mind because I honestly don't think the papers have a clue what's going on.

Barney 0 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 not sure if this has already been posted. However, former Tottenham vice-president Paul Kemsley, who is a close friend of Ashley, has hinted that a permanent appointment may not be far off. Kemsley, who is a known admirer of Redknapp and is thought to have wanted Spurs to appoint him as Martin Jol's replacement, would not be drawn on whether Ashley already has a manager lined up. But he told BBC Radio Five Live: "Mike is a considered guy, he does not make rash decisions. He will have a plan and I am sure he knows what he is doing. "I would be very excited if I was a Newcastle fan, as I know Mike will deliver for them. He wants to see good quality, attacking football and he wants to win games." The fact remains that Newcastle are now looking for their sixth manager in 10 years. Ironically, Allardyce had spoken about the lack of time afforded to Premier League managers in the modern-day game just before he was sacked. But Kemsley feels Allardyce may have been living on borrowed time because he was appointed by ex-chairman Freddy Shepherd before Ashley's takeover. He added: "Allardyce was not Mike's choice - but he gave him time because he wanted to see if he could deliver. "However, he felt it was in the best interests of the club to sack Allardyce and that is what happened. "Mike has already invested £250m in the club and is prepared to invest more but he wants to do that with his own man in place." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 10857 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 right. I don't care what the papers say, regardless of what is printed I don't see us getting a "world class manager" I see us getting a middle of the road premiership boss who won't inspire me, hence my lack of vim. I picked out those two managers, rather than listing all the premiership bosses, purely for the sake of brevity and to add a little punch to the post.

Totally agree. I wouldn't even bother throwing names in the hat because imo there's only two people that know whats going on at the moment and thats Mort & Ashley but I've a feeling they've got something up their sleeve. Can't help thinking him being sacked has something to do with Anals story, to much of a coincidence for my liking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonraider 0 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 There I was cooking the tea quite happily when the news came on the radio I was totally shocked, stll am really. Bitterly upset Big Sam hasnt worked out, I really thought it would and wanted him to have longer. What a complete shambles this all is, I feel so utterly dejected that I practically don't care anymore Gotta love a woman who knows her place. Through all the adversity and drama, she still cooked the dinner. My kind of woman. Yes I did (and dessert) though didnt have much appetite for my own OH and Jonny and Wacky.......

The Fish 10857 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Of course you did. Pure coincidence sweet lordy dear, alex man I don't think it's going to be Hughes or Redknapp. Neither would leave a club who they've had some degree of progress with against certain odds, to come to a club that still sacks a man after 20 games despite assuring him his job is safe. neither do I think it'll be Jose or Lippi etc. I think it'll be a middle of the road manager, which is why I can't get excited.
