*Official* English Football Season 2010-11

**** me sideways Newcastle are a joke of a club. Genuinely fascinated to see who they might have line up who they reckon could do better - Curbishley, perhaps? Surely O'Neill wouldn't go near that madhouse - if he couldn't work for Lerner, how would he work for Ashley?

In other news (though not remotely English-related), FIFA have announced the final three for this year's Ballon d'Or - Iniesta, Messi and Xavi. All three of them absolutely magnificent footballers.

Though I couldn't help but be at least a little annoyed if I'd been a part of Inter's all-conquering side last season.

I'd feel particularly jilted if I'd then gone on to have an absolutely outstanding World Cup.

And I'd be absolutely ****ing ropable if my name was Wesley Sneijder.

"We want a more experienced manager"

This from the club that appointed Alan Shearer in the middle of a relegation dog-fight, and who have just appointed Peter Beardsley.

If they wanted Hughton out they could have waited until the end of the season and allowed him to go quietly with a word of thanks in his ear for the job he's done.

Bunch of classless, scummy ****s, I hope they get relegated and go out of business.

O'Neill would be a good choice to get them to about 7th place as long as Ashley has deep pockets to fund the inevitable spending spree as O'Neill pursues over-priced, average players.

I think he's found it hard to shake off his tag as an assistant managed to be honest.


Nah, i think its more Ashley has found it hard to shake off his tag as a clueless ****wit TBH

To quote a Geordie mate of mine (edited into English - added consonants and removed most profanities)

"he hasn't got a clue how to run a football club. Did he not notice that when he kept quiet and didnt do anything ****ing daft, we started playing well and winning games?"


Pretty much sums up the Chairman IMO.

Yeah, tbh Sneijder should win it.

+1
But if I remember rightly, you and I were battling it out to be Sneijder's #1 fanboy :p

I think we just have to credit Mike Ashley for spotting the imminent danger of Newcastle becoming remotely likable and taking action before it was too late.

Haha, yeah, I was thinking the exact same thing walking home this afternoon actually. The guy is beyond a joke really. One wonders how he could have made so much money as a businessman, because his judgment in a footballing context seems to be absolutely piss poor.

Edit: I see Alan Shearer has ruled himself out of being the next manager...and Newcastle claim they will make an appointment by the time the weekend comes around. Has to be Jol, Pardew or Curbishley surely. All candidates who have a wealth of experience of finishing higher than midtable...
