Good to see KK is fitting in so well at Newcastle..

... he's already got the hang of inspiring mediocre football and failing to win anything at all. Nice work Kev.

I have one thing to say: Hahahahahahahahaa!

Bloody Newcastle. Bloody Keegan. Bloody newpapewrs thinking tha it's all peoplewant to hear about. I hope they go all season without scoring a goal. Grrrr.....

HUC rage!

I just think they are kidding themselves that he's going to turn things round. I give him a year at most..

Patrick said...

Hmmmm....two games without a win now....I bet the Newcastle board will be drawing up a(nother) list of potential managers....

Let's face it, it's been AGES since their last managerial change, and without wanting to sound at all premature, things are obviously not working out with Keegan.

How about Sam Allerdyce? I gather HE is looking for a job right now.

Or maybe Alan Shearer.

Or Jose Mourinho.

I was chatting to someone the other day who told me on the day of Keegan's appointment, Ladbrokes were offering 500-1 on Keegan NOT being in his job this time next year. This bloke tried to put £100 on (I think that would have been an excellent bet) and then all of a sudden Ladbrokes got cold feet and refused to accept the bet.

Natural Blonde said...

Gosh I'd have had some of that at 500-1. I'd take 50-1 on that..

Patrick said...

Yes, so would I!

Patrick said...

Realistically, if I was running a book, I would give Keegan's chances of surviving a year 10-1.

HUC said...

I hope he cocks it up big time. It'd be worth it just to see the looks on thousands of Geordies' faces whn their 'messiah' turns out to be useless!

There's no way he'll bring anything to Newcastle. I just ain't gunna happen.

Alright HUC lad, how's things?

Patrick said...

Blimey HUC, has your pet rabbit just been kidnapped by Geordies?

;¬)

HUC said...

Now then Northy. I'm alright thank, just enjoying a rare day off! How's thee?

And Paddy, not exactly. It was my pet duck they stole. Lousy Geordies.....

I'm alright son, a bit bored but alright.

Patrick said...

What? You mean they've got Quacky?!

Have they sent you a ransom note yet?

"Howay HUC. Wuv got Quacky, lake. Giv'us a tennah, lake, or wor'll start sendin' yous feathahs in tha pwworst"

HUC said...

That's a suspiciously accurate recollection of the letter I recieved. You're not an undercover Geordie are you?

Patrick said...

Absolutely not. (Howay, lake)

I'm with the rage masters.

I'd also like to see Shearer take over and f**k up at Southampton :)

Patrick said...

No. Shearer is way too busy being fluffed for Toon. It's got to be the worst way of going into management, a dead cert appointment to a specific job with a weight of expectation which it will be nigh on impossible to satisfy, and with no previous managerial experience.

I do actually like Shearer, but believing that just because he was a great striker for Newcastle means he will make a good manager is rather like a farmer believeing that his favourite prize pig will prove an expert estate manager.
