I would just like to add that it would appear that I am NUFC watch !

I am in seriously bad pain from my knee injury but believe me, this farce has put the pain off me better than any pain killer that I have been on since early December.

Thanks NUFC I am recommending you to the NHS as a pain relief ingredient.

Mark Hughes would effectively be ruling himself out of ever getting the united job if he goes as he has no chance of any success at newcastle? 50/50 in my mind at the minute, if i was that ashley fella there would'nt be any other manager i'd look at! Can't get my head round why arry is such a massive favourite for the job. Then again i was staggered a team above conference level gave megson a job, Really need hughes to come out and say definitively he hates the north-east, their rank shirt, ugly women, and retarded accents! For me personnally if the worst happens i'd definely want a manager of a similar age with hunger to prove himself rather than an arry type, former player with decent reputation. Wheres Berg these days?

Latest rumour doing the rounds in Newcastle and has been on SSN...that Arry is up there having flown up from Southampton

[mrsjansen]

Rovers just announced no contact from NUFC

Usually means Hughes is on his way then and be manager by next week.

Henning Berg is the sucessfull manager of Lyn Oslo.

George Donis is the sucessfull manager of Larisa.

Both should be considered if Sparky went, fingers crossed he dosen't.

Here is a photo snapped just now.

It shows Harry's joy becoming the new manager of Newcastle

Harry's Joy!

Don't know why, but I do not have a very good feeling about this at all. If anyone could make Newcastle relatively successful they would be a hero and their reputation would go sky high.

Ashley would give a new manager time to get it right in my view, because it will be his man. There is money to spend for any new manager as well.

It just seems a no-brainer why they would not approach us for Hughes.

Usually Hughes press conference is today ahead of the weekend game, but I am guessing it is tomorrow, so lets see what he has to say (providing he is still our manager).....

My thoughts as well. Mind you, Pompey/Redknapp have issued a similar statement....

[Fife Rover]

as ive said, there's no need for rovers or hughes to come out make any comment just yet. if a journalist asks him and hughes gives an iffy answer, then we should be worried. but no papers are reporting there's been any contact between the sides so there's nothing to come out and deny.

There has been nothing for Everton to come out and deny either but it has not stopped their chairman coming out and saying "hands off Davie Moyes; he is not available or interested".

Rovers just announced no contact from NUFC

When; where; how???

[Exiled_Rover]

Just now, at Ewood, through the medium of dance.

It was announced on SSN a few times earlier and Lee confirmed JW said it.

Lee confirmed it where?

[LeChuck]

Why are we all so worried? I really don't think Hughes has enough on his C.V. to make Newcastle interested.

15th, 6th, 10th, and probably similar this year, with disastrous efforts in cup competitions. Souness had a promotion, a cup and a 6th place finish to his name when Newcastle wanted him, plus the reputation for sorting egos which they apparently wanted at the time.

Until Hughes turns his obvious potential into success for Rovers I really don't think he'll be considered for more appealing jobs (not sure Newcastle even qualifies as one).

[ABBEY]

chucky do you want to make babies with me i think you just turned me on

Well I'll turn you off again.

Even the sports editor at the telegraph is worried.

[ABBEY]

all gone limp again

[den]

You did well there Abbey. About 13 mins. Not bad for someone your age.

[ABBEY]

a big improvement on 13 seconds

[brian_gallagher85]

Lee confirmed it where?

On the official boards, while responding to a certain member questioning JW's decision to not come out a issue a hands off warning, and rather a no contact one

[ABBEY]

apparently century reckon its nailed on hughes is going!!!!!!!

[revolutionrock!]

What they say?

[mrsjansen]

No doubt Sparky will say all the right things at the press conference tomorrow, how flattered he is at being linked with the job at newcastle. They are a massive club etc etc etc.

Ill only stop worrying when Newcastle appoint someone else.

[ABBEY]

What they say?

g/f son in law just come and said they say they have heard its happening and hes going
