Jimbo 175 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Just heard that too, however, Talksport said it was O'Neill a few weeks back. Don't get too excited just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 47118 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 If it's true, I'd like to be the first to register my approval of the decision. No he's not a big name, but he knows the club, he knows what we're about, and he's making a decent fist of it at the mo. So good luck to the bloke if it is him.

Scottish Mag 3 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Without someone like Houllier on board also i just cannot see it. What with this perhaps being the Fatmans last roll of the dice to get it right it really would be a risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snakehips 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 Lead story on talkSPORT news bulletin. It is Roeder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rikko 20 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Roeder is still short of his badges aswell, he currently on a stay of execution if you will for the last 2 games of the season. If someone like Houllier comes in i can believe it, but not without. I don't think we'll appoint anyone til the end of the season now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1280 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 If it's true I'll be the first to state my opinion that it's a mistake. We need a big name (obviously has to be a good manager too) if we are going to attract the quality of player we need to take us on to where a club this size should be. I don't think Roder has the name to get these sort of players. I would wish him well but I think it's a mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo 175 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Talksport: "SKY Sports have unconfirmed reports that Glenn Roeder has been appointed full time Newcastle manager, more news when we get it". Sounds like bollocks to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snakehips 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 I've asked this before, but don't the stock exchange have to be notified first?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Roeder has done a good job since he has been in charge, but I think this is a missed opportunity and I am not very excited by the appointment if true. Fat Fred this better be right or it's curtains for you me old brothel creeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far nothing on SKY Sports news, nothing on the Official site, nothing on 5 Live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Boyo 24 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 (edited) Doesn't matter whether it's a big name or not...! He's the man who has the players playing as a team and getting results and that's all you want full stop! If Roader had have been appointed at the start of the season I feel we'd be in an even higher position. If he's not the man to get us into the Champions League then so be it, but why take a risk with someone else when he's doing a great job? Your always taking risks, whether it's new managers or new players, but he's doing a good job and that's good enough!

I don't think we'll appoint anyone til the end of the season now. 127153[/snapback] Well, I don't know how true these rumours are, but I don't think him being short of the badges would be much of a problem. He has his A-Licence and apparently, the Pro-Licence is a short course dealing with things such as agents and time management, things which Roeder will have had experience of anyway, so whilst he'd need to do his Pro badge it's not that big an obstacle.

manc-mag 1 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Disappointed if true. With the greatest of respect (and thanks) to Roeder for what he's done thus far, I really dont think the Toon is the right place for a manager to serve an apprenticeship. Fair do's with Keegan but we were desparate in the extreme back then and I dont think the circumstances can be compared. Roeder clearly displays some of the vital qualities-if anything for me these should be honed at a smaller club before the real big time pressure kicks in.

luckypierre 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 He's already managed West Ham and Watford hasn't he? 127176[/snapback] and for the most part the fans of those clubs dont have a good word to say about him. Hugely disappointed if true. He's been lucky with the fixture list and the fact Souness was so inept. A bigger asset to the club long term as head of the academy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
