Ashley is a genious and will pull us out of this mess. What pisses me off the most is managers say they need 5 years? Sven took 5 weeks and Man City are on fire and people wating for the bubble to burst, it wont!&lt;br&gt;I hate the media all southern London club supporters. Spurs have had more managers than us in the last 15 years but they get no criticism for no stability.&lt;br&gt;And too everyone saying we are no longer a big club, bollox, we are one of the few clubs who would fill wembley with no problems, everyone is interested in Newcastle United, there wasnt as much media coverage when chelsea sacked Mourinho nor was there with Spurs.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Louis Van Gaal for manager with backups&lt;br&gt;Hiddink,&lt;br&gt;Rijkaard (surely barca will sack him)&lt;br&gt;Mourinho&lt;br&gt;Hitzfeld&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If anyone on that list gets it i will cut off my left testacle.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Exiled_Geordie</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 13 Jan 2008 21:26:20 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Contenders to Become Next Newcastle Manager</title><link>http://www.epltalk.com/next-newcastle-manager/1265#comment-2203385</link><description>BIG SAM WOZ THE MAN HE WOULD OF GOT US SOMETHING HE ASKED FOR 5 YEARS BUT NEWCASTLE CNT KEEP NO1 4 MORE THAN 5 SECONDS WE HAVE 2 ACCEPT WERE NOT A BIG CLUB ANYMORE WE NEED A MANAGER WHO CAN BUILD A TEAM AND YOU CANY DO THAT IN 8 MONTH AND THAT LIST UP THERE IS UTTER SHIT MOURINIHO WOULD COME IF SIR BOBBY CME BK AS ASSISTANT!!!</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">toon</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 13 Jan 2008 19:41:22 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Contenders to Become Next Newcastle Manager</title><link>http://www.epltalk.com/next-newcastle-manager/1265#comment-2203384</link><description>Van Gaal.

Getting decent results with below average players.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;He was never suited to the toon.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Didn't knopw what to do with above average players.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;He was tactically hopeless.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Good on Mike Ashley. Now he has to step up and appoint a great manager.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Hitzfeld, Jose, Van Gaal, Shearer.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I'll put Shearer there because the likes of Klinsman, Rykaard, Koeman, Hughes all went straight in at fairly high profile jobs.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Then again there is Brian Robson, Southgate, Ardilles, etc....</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Owen</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 13 Jan 2008 08:54:49 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Contenders to Become Next Newcastle Manager</title><link>http://www.epltalk.com/next-newcastle-manager/1265#comment-2203382</link><description>Why not go for a young manager, someone like Johnson from Bristol, Martinez at Swansea or Paul Ince</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Irish-Toon</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 13 Jan 2008 08:39:34 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Contenders to Become Next Newcastle Manager</title><link>http://www.epltalk.com/next-newcastle-manager/1265#comment-2203381</link><description>f*ck knows i would love jose cos he is clever and takes the pressure off the players cos of the things he says and the man for the job but jose will not come &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;im 16 and i can see that i love big al but hes will not have a clue legend tho</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">allan</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 13 Jan 2008 08:02:17 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Contenders to Become Next Newcastle Manager</title><link>http://www.epltalk.com/next-newcastle-manager/1265#comment-2203380</link><description>KEEGAN and SHEARER.

In the course of the Premiership we have had 7 Managers, Chelsea have had 7, Spurs have had 8, England have had 7. Did you here the London press saying England needed stability, and MacClaren had only been given 15 months which is too short?</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">NUFC</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 13 Jan 2008 07:04:27 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Contenders to Become Next Newcastle Manager</title><link>http://www.epltalk.com/next-newcastle-manager/1265#comment-2203377</link><description>What an appalling list.....we're b*ggered if we get any on that list (except M O'Neill who won't come anyway)!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Shearer's not ready and i doubt he would put his precious reputation on the line.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Not convinced by Martin Jol either and his unhealthly fascination of buying poor midfielders for extortionate prices..&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The rest are sh1t!</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Witnit</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 13 Jan 2008 07:03:43 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Contenders to Become Next Newcastle Manager</title><link>http://www.epltalk.com/next-newcastle-manager/1265#comment-2203376</link><description>My 1st choice is Mourinho and I think he would sign given a chance. We have the money to spend, the basis of a squad and to take us to a premiership would have him remembered forever as a legend.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;@nd choice definately Hiddink, after what he did with Australia he has my eternal respect (bear in mind as and international coach you can only make do with what you have, there are no transfers)</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Benoz</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 13 Jan 2008 06:57:19 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Contenders to Become Next Newcastle Manager</title><link>http://www.epltalk.com/next-newcastle-manager/1265#comment-2203375</link><description>ONE THING THAT GETS ME CHEESED OFF, IS THAT SAM IS THE 8TH MANAGER THIS SEASON TO GET THE SACK!!! FACT OK!!!&lt;br&gt;BUT IT IS ONLY NOW ONCE SAM HAS BEEN SACKED THAT ALL THE OTHER MANAGERS AND MEDIA COME OUT WHINGING AND COMPLAINING THAT IT IS WRONG THAT WE SACK MANAGERS WILLY NILLY. WELL IF YOU DON'T PERFORM TO THE BEST OF YOUR ABILITY AT YOUR PLACE OF WORK YOU GET SACKED, CORRECT!?!? AND IT IS ONLY THAT IT IS NEWCASTLE THAT PEOPLE (MANAGERS AND MEDIA ALIKE) START THE ROLLER COASTER OF SHAME ON YOU. PERSONALLY IF EVERYONE GETS OFF EACH OTHERS BACKS WE WILL ALL BE FINE!!!!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;OH, AND ONCE NEWCASTLE BRING IN MOURINHO OR HITZFELD, AND GIVE HIM A BLANK CHEQUE IN WHICH TO SIGN PLAYERS, THEN YOU'LL ALL BE EATING YOUR OWN WORDS! WOULD YOU KEEP A MANAGER THAT WAS NOT YOUR CHOICE, THAT CAN NOT GET THE PLAYERS LINKING UP AND PLAYER WELL TOGETHER, OR HAS NO COMMON SENSE IN REGARDS TO WHERE A PLAYERS BEST STRENGHTS ARE (N'ZOGBIA AT LEFT BACK FOR SAM, AND HE IS CLEARLY A LEFT SIDED WINGER) PLEASE WAKE UP EVERYONE AND SMELL THE COFFE, MIKE ASHLEY AND NEWCASTLE UNITED JUST DONE WHAT WAS NECESSARY AT THIS POINT IN TIME!!! LAY OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!&lt;br&gt;HOWAY THE LADS!!!!

Keegan&lt;br&gt;5. hiddink&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;All of whom could have Shearer as an assistant, to help get him into the swing of management!!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Of the list on this web site, I am absolutely appauled at the names on it!! ABSOLUTELY dissappointed at the names being linked to us for the vacant managers job. We are the laughing stock of football, as we offered it to Redknapp!!??!! WHY??? We are considering Jol, McClaren, and the rest (other than Big Al - but not ready yet!!) are hopeless, and O'neil we offered it to him a year or so ago, he turned us down! WHY DO WE OFFER IT AGAIN TO A BLOKE WHO TURNED US DOWN??!! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As for players, why do we chase players that turn us down also, if they turn us down once they are not going to give us there 100% commitment are they!?!? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The manager of nufc should be a Mourinho or a Hitzfeld!!!!!!!!!!</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">MY TOON</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 12 Jan 2008 22:04:44 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Top 10 Contenders to Become Next Newcastle Manager</title><link>http://www.epltalk.com/next-newcastle-manager/1265#comment-2203370</link><description>I personally feel Hoddle deserves another shot at a Premiership job.
