SIMON GARNERS 194 Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 Great news....come on Rovers, open them purse strings a little for Sparky!
brfcshabba Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 I hope Newcastle lose tonight. Mainly just for the extra few thousand fans who couldn't be bothered to turn up before the Keegan news
Plastic Head Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 Can someone remind me why Keegan left the Geordies. Coz he's a quitter. Does the same whenever things don't go his way. Hamburg, Newcastle, England, Man City... Leopards don't change their spots, he'll be off again soon.
Jimmy Jupiter Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 That's us safe for another 8 months. From Newcastle that is.
dj54nna Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 That's us safe for another 8 months. From Newcastle that is. I don't think that'll be the case. I expect Hughes to now be linked to every manager's job going between now and the end of his time at Rovers. However, if he pulls another interview like the one on MOTD the other night, I won't be so sure we'll be keeping him next time.
thenodrog Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 That's us safe for another 8 months. From Newcastle that is. By that time Kev will be about 12 million richer, the mags 30 million lighter but with half a dozen very expensive showboating Carlos Kickaballs on long contracts. And they'll be after Hughes all over again. One thing about all this mystefys me...... how tf did Fat Ashley ever make so much money?
1864roverite Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 And the comedy circus continues. Thanks Newcastle for the entertainment and sleepless nights thinking you were nicking our manager. Your club is officially run by dicks
Roversider Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 Give the Geordies their due, in the private universe they live in they are number one, the best supporters, the most attractive team etc., etc.. Unfortunately in the real universe they are a team with 50 years of failure, underperforming and with fans who are easily duped. They are also the laughing stock of the Premiership. Let's get back to our team and ignore the distractions from the press about our manager.
Cocker Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 Why are many of you dissing him. I for one am glad he is back. His teams play nice football to watch. Sure I watch Rovers but I was the other games that are on and seeing a good match always makes me smile. Not everyone can win something each year however, if the guys you are watching put on a nice display of football for the guys who buy tickets then thats what it is all about. Welcome back Kevin Keegan.

den Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 Why are many of you dissing him. I for one am glad he is back. His teams play nice football to watch. Go ask the Man City fans about that Cocker. They'll tell you City were pants under him. If Newcastle are such a massive club who can attract the top players and top managers [which they should be able to do, if they are truly massive], then why go back to Keegan who was found wanting when it came to the crunch, when far more modern, tactically aware people are available? Oh aye - just thought, and why go for 'Arry first choice, If Kev's a god?
broadsword Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 Were Man Citeh good to watch under him? I thought they were terrible, weren't they? Dreadful decision by them, really bad, I couldn't imagine them cocking it up bigger. I mean it, seriously. Hughes probably would've gone , and would've sorted them out.

cletus Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 Phew!! Thank #### that`s over with. Great result for BRFC. Hughes staying for a bit longer & Keegan to #### the geordies up good & proper
Presty On Tour Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 will he have any say in the newcastle side tonight? will he be in the dug out at least?
cn174 Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 will he have any say in the newcastle side tonight? will he be in the dug out at least? Sky Sports news seems to suggest he'll just be watching. After a 30 minute parade knowing the Geordies

T4E Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 Right hopefully some incoming transfer activity will commence. However i think we have all learnt during this episode that our manager is not going to sit pretty at Ewood until the Man U job come available. His comments throughtout have taught us that if he feels a more progressive offer along the lines of Newcastle becomes available he will probably be off. Absolutely. I really cannot get on board with all the expressions of relief. Our problem has not gone away. This whole sorry experience has left the club under no illusions whatsoever - if he gets the right offer, our manager will be gone. Sparky had a chance to publicly denounce the Newcastle proposition, pledge allegience to the club, and leave us looking a very steady ship to prospective signings and investors alike. As he refused to do so, we can now guarantee Mark Hughes will be installed as immediate favourite for every semi-high profile job that comes up between now and when he finally does one. How as a club are we now expected to be able to convince good players to come and play for us? Likewise, how can JW be expected to convince our players to extend contracts/commit futures to this football club, knowing full well managerial upheaval could be right around the corner. In my opinion Sparky failed us on this one - big time. It remains to be seen if we feel a lasting effect.
Flopsy Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 My feeling is that he'll go at the end of the season when Keegan steps down.

Hughes probably would've gone , and would've sorted them out. hell forget hughes, they couldve got dider deschamps in..well he flew there for talks anyway, as much as i love sparky deschamps would have been even better. but they went for kev, what a massive joke of a club.

tony gale's mic Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 when keegan leaves and eventually fails, shearer WILL get the job. i'm sure he'll be part of this set up and he'll probably be preparing to be the next manager now if he hasn't. we neednt worry about newcastle nicking our manager for a while yet.
