Steve McClaren sacked as Newcastle United 'Head Coach' (Manager)

[Dr Gloom 22504]

I like how they've snuck off to York. It would have been daft to just lock the boardroom door.

[Howay 12496]

Within 48 hours, just fucking sack him then why wait 2 days? which will be 4 days after the debacle of a game. Honestly man this Charnley is a fucking disgrace, why did he have to go to York to then decide he needs more time to decide? I still don't think anything will be done and he will be in charge next game.

Would be quite funny if McClaren, Carr, & Brown Nosed Bob went to York tomorrow & came back & voted to sack Charnley

[trophyshy 7094]

It's Edinburgh tomorrow.

[Dr Gloom 22504]

Lee Charnley, the managing director, Graham Carr, the chief scout, and the club ambassador, Bob Moncur, met in York where alternatives to McClaren were discussed and a process of due diligence began on the potential of certain candidates to lead an escape from relegation

Investing in a football club - no due diligence.

 

Deciding whether to sack a manger whose position is untenable with games running out - a lengthy due diligence process.

[Dr Gloom 22504]

It's Edinburgh tomorrow.

The due diligence roadshow

 

Next stop: relegation

[Rayvin 5555]

It's mental that they've not bothered looking at viable people.

[Kitman 2207]

Charnley's been too busy checking the toilet roll inventory to have time for this manager malarkey

[Kitman 2207]

Pound for pound we'll be the best club to be relegated from the PL

[trooper 940]

Charnley will probably ring McClaren when he's on the training pitch to tell him he's sacked

[Isegrim 10011]

It's the return of: "planning :lol: "

 

Honestly, if they really just now start to think about available managers to replace McClaren they are about four months behind the schedule...

[scoobos 298]

Well, what a shit show. You all know I think about the manager, but to have the players take 2 days off since the last match is inexcusable. This leadership is a fucking joke.

[Slayer 3]

I can't sleep. Is the cunt not sacked yet?

Can I sue the bastards for sleep deprivation?

Tell me this is a bad dream and that we are second from top and not second from bottom 💤💤💤💤

[ewerk 31564]

Lost the dressing room, to coin a cliché - different players taking penalties to the ones he wanted, etc. Apparently he's spent €54 million since the start of the season to get them to one point above the relegation zone.

I think we may finally hear the phrase tried to get over the line in relation to the manager. Well it may be implied anyway.

[gpirlo68 0]

Surely if he take training today hes staying? There not going to just let him the the session and then sack the bastard

[Gemmill 47009]

They might be waiting to see if he quits to avoid the compensation payment. I wouldn't be in the least bit surprised if that's their move here.

[NJS 4446]

The old "mutual consent" which I take to mean they agree to half the pay off of a sacking.

[ewerk 31564]

He isn't taking training. Arrived at the training ground then left again pretty sharpish.

And now we just wait for the uproar when Nigel Pearson rocks up at the front door.

And now we just wait for the uproar when Nigel Worthington rocks up at the front door.

 

Charnley'd your post

Crikey. That's... quite telling.
