I think he'll end up at Sunderland, myself.

Why?

Whats Shearers record since he's been manager?
Will he be given funds to buy next year?
How far will you lot need to full until you realise
Shearers not the answer to your problems?
A proven manager is what you need, do you
think you'd be down if Sam Allardyce had been given time
and a chance?

Me, I'm over the moon with whats going on up there but can't
understand why you lot all think Keegan and Shearer are the answers to all
your problems?

Makes it so much sweeter that Ashleys a Yid.

I think he'll end up at Sunderland, myself.

Agree mate, even though Niall Quinn came out and said there be bringing
in a big named proven manager.

Why? Because the man is Mr Newcastle United simple as that. He loves the club and has the drive and determination to get us back into the premier league like nobody else in management. He is straight forward and honest, he wont pussy foot around, is not a yes man and will do whatever needs to be done to get the football club back on track. Be it sell players, identify targets, change the management structure. He'll do whats right for the club.

The man needs to be given time. 8 games was simply not long enough when you consider the dire state the club is in

Yes, he's an unknown quantity as a manager, but thats a risk many newcastle fans are willing to take, becuase there is no-one else more suited for the job. Shearer is a Newcastle legend and will always give 110% for the Club. He isn't interested in money, he just wants to get newcastle back into the premier league and playing good football again.

Remember everybody has to start somewhere. People like Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger were rookie managers once.

Like I've said on other threads, someone may need to be put along side Shearer in an assistant role. Someone who has more experience and tactical knowledge.

Anyway, I dont know what Your problem is, your pretty aggressive with your posts. I dont know who you support, but why do you care whats going on at Newcastle so much?

Yes we've been relegated, yes we've been a poor team for many years, yes if you look at it objectively we proberly deserved to go down - 7 wins all season is not good enough. I don't deny this so try and cut out the obvious aggression in your posts, because I've done nothing to provoke you.

I'm simply a Newcastle supporter who believes that Alan Shearer is the right man for the job. I've given reasons and am just expressing my opinion, something I thought I could do on this forum?

No aggression in my post, just asking a question, i felt much the same way when Hoddle was given the job @ Spurs, look how that turned out. but he'll still be a ledgend @ WHL.

Newcastle will go nowhere until a massive shack up of the club is done, the owner, ASHLEY should stop listening to what the fans want and do whats best for the club. Didn't you think bring Keegan back the 2nd time was
going to bring back great days @ UTD?

expressing my opinion, something I thought I could do on this forum?

Me too.

lol you Newcastle fans never cease to amaze me, Kevin Keegan all over again, Its almost certain you guys would still be up if big Sam had been given a chance, Four managers in one season is a joke, Look at my team Everton, Moyes has been given a chance and we are now reaping the rewards.

You can keep your TV pundit and lower league football.

[dts197]

I understand what people mean about the football threads on here........

[thfccambs]

Any Celtic followers tell me there thoughts on Scott Brown?
looks like he may be of next?

why pick on us

[davepuma]

He has been a fantastic manager for Celtic but unfortunately many simply never took to him because he's not a former Celt. He didn't get the same riches to spend as other former Celtic managers and ultimately not being able to win the league over a very poor Rangers side with a very poor Celtic one cost him his job. I know a few Celtic fans that have felt for a lot of this season, that a change was needed. Now it has happened. His record is pretty good and I think he has moved on since previously managing in England and will more than likely end up in the Premiership.

We will, cheers.

(Also agree Moyes has done a great job at Everton and is a fnatastic manager).

Shearer will fail at Newcastle..not because he's a terrible manager but because once he starts learning the job and "losing" games the fans and board will grow impatient. Look at the number of managers Newcastle get through...if he loses a lot of games at the start of the season he will throw in the towel. Can you honestly say the fans are going to stand for possible relegation if he struggles to put a decent team together, makes mistakes and they slump near the bottom of the championship ?
Need a proven manager...

[FZR400RRSP]

I love deluded Celtic fans thinking Coyle would be interested.
Yeah yeah, of course he will be.
No chance.

[BlackCountryBob]

Shame about Strachan, says something about how fickle fans are that he can win 3 SPL on the bounce, get into the CL last 16 twice but all this is dismissed as irrelevant because he could only guide them to 2nd so he had to go. Daft, he did a good job with limited resources and I am sure he will be an excellent candidate for any number of EPL jobs if and when they come available (Sunderland, Pompey).

I love that Newcastle fans think that loving the club or having a history with them is somehow a good enough reason to get the managers job, Shearer can be a good manager but he needs a guiding hand to help him learn, he needs a few years as a number 2 because the truth is that he may be Magpie to the bone but he got one win in 8 games which is not form that would earn any other manager a second chance.

[gosties]

I have always thought that the attitude of certain elements of the Celtic supporters ridiculous.

His record in a shorter time period than Martin O'Neill is vastly superior and has been done with poorer squads and considerably less budgets for transfers and wages than his predecessor.

I don't support either of the Old Firm and don't like Strachan due to his cheeky and abrasive nature. But his track record stands comparison to anyone.

The notion that Strachan was not "Celtic Minded" has been a constant proverbial stick to beat him with.

It's also one of the reason's why Mowbray or Mcghee will likely get the job. I don't rate Mcghee and never have. Tony Mowbray did a good job at Hibs but has struggled at West Brom in the Premiership.

The problem in Scotland is that it is essentially a two-club dynasty on the league title. With the resources available to either Old-Firm team I don't ever see another Scottish Club winning the league.

Neither club manager's can afford to not win the title in this day and age.

Unless, he enjoys getting royally thumped for 38 plus games, maybe he will stay at Burnley....

As with any newcomers to the EPL, survival will be his priority.
He's shaping up to be a fantastic manager though.
Only used 23 players all season.
61 games played by some of his lads and still getting 100% out of them.
Amazing.

survival will be the priority of 3/4 of the whole league and thats all they can ever achieve!

So Mowbray it is then...

How do people think he'll do at Celtic. Obviously WBA were relegated, but the fans seemed to rate him highly (standing ovation at their last home game for him).

To be honest, I can't say I know too much about his managerial style except that he seemed to play a passing game with West Brom. Obviously they weren't strong enough to stay up, but that won't be a problem for him at Celtic.

Great signing in my opinion...WBA played some quality stuff last season...but lack of finishing in front of goal cost them dearly...like you said that won't be a problem for him at Celtic...

He was linked with Spurs for £10m, I would bite their hands off, great engine, tackles well, great spirit BUT his final ball is poor and does'nt score enough goals for an attacking MF

Yep, he knocked back his boyhood team to manage the mighty Burnley for one season in the EPL

He knocked the Celtic job back for 2 reasons

1) He was'nt happy with only being handed a £5m NET budget to re-build Celtic

2) His family where concerned about the pressures of being an OF manager (where you have to win every game rather than be happy staving off relegation)

The Celticminded stick was overplayed in the Scottish media.

Prob 5% of the support were'nt happy because he was'nt "Celtic Minded"

However he had a habit of playing players out of position (Jarosik, Riordan, Caldwell, Hartley, McGeady & Nakamura)

He also had a bad habit of being curt with the media for no reason and passed on very little info to the support because of this demeanour

He picked favourites and stuck with them (even when out of form)

Did'nt see the fact that Naylor @ Left Back was a liability

Was rigid in his formation/tactics & did'nt utilise his subs well enough

Did'nt put the board under enough pressure to ensure adequate funds where forthcoming

His record was impressive, but considering the terrible Rangers team he was up against, any other decent manager would have probably enjoyed the same success as Gordon

Would have preffered Coyle or Jol/Bilic, and by the looks of the feeble amount of money the board have given Mowbray, it looks like he's a bit of a yes man (like the previous incubment)

We will play attractive fitba under TM, however I'm concerned that he decided to splash 80% of his budget on a striker who won't score more than 15 goals a season!

I still think Celtic will win the league this season though
