Administration = League 1 football next year. AT MINIMUM. It must be avoided at all costs.

Sorry, but that doesn't tie in with Keegan being in breach of contract. He signed up believing he could get whatever he wanted and felt that because he had the fans on his side he could push Newcastle's board around, he did the same in the early ninties and won. He believed he could do it again. He ****ed up big time. He let Ashley reappoint him, and yes, was probably FULLY aware of what his plans where, but then acted like a big baby when he couldn't change things to get his own way. I doubt he ever read his terms and conditions of employment through properly when he re-took the job, I would suspect he saw the chance for 'love' again and signed up without consideration. Keegan's 'honesty' was the ramblings of an overgrown infant who couldn't understand that the board wouldn't pander to the fan's messiahs wishes. Newcastle's fans feel betrayed by Ashley because they cannot see past their love of 'King Kev,' Ashley and the Club's board held firm, knowing they hadn't done anything wrong, Keegan's manipulation of the media far from being for the best interest of Newcastle has been entirely self serving, he only went back because he wanted be be loved and adored again by his 'public,' that someone else could be taking his thunder for anything achieved was something he couldn't cope with, his ego wouldn't let him. His own vanity has, essentially cost Newcastle a chairman who may not have been perfect, but had a plan of action to keep Newcastle stable and give them a chance to push on to a brighter future. Keegan has brought this board down and could well have destroyed Newcastle football club. Regarding asking for attacking football and some endeavour, isn't that what we all want as football fans?

Absolutely. Makes me laugh that he tried to hold the Newcastle board to ransom over his dissmissal, believing he had the moral high ground due to 'breach of contract,' only for it to backfire completely in his face!!! He ended up owing Newcastle money from what I understand because HE breached contract by demanding control of all elements of the first team. Keegan threw his toys out of the pram and the over emotional Geordie faithful backed their 'messiah' all the way. Not for a second thinking that he may have been the creator of his own 'untenable situation.' The sooner Newcastle get relegated the better. Just like Spurs and Villa they need taking down a serious peg or two.

If that is what they are complaining over they really need to get a grip. I've heard much, MUCH worse.

So the wheels are about to fall of the portsmouth bandwagon.... Suspected as much! In all seriousness though, just go for a travellodge, you cannot go wrong at all with them. Formule 1 are ok, but deeply basic.

Why bother with Hotels, surely you would just take your caravan?

Wow, she purdy.

#Ahem# Steve McLaren has just as good a record. League Record: 00/01, 14th and Cup Semi Final 01/02, 12th 02/03, 11th 03/04, 11th and League Cup Winners 04/05, 7th and UEFA Cup last 16 05/06, 14th and UEFA Cup Finalists, FA Cup Semi Finalists 'Arry's (Premiership) League Record: 03/04, 13th 04/05, - Relegation with Southampton 05/06, 17th 06/07, 9th 07/08, 8th and FA Cup Winners Looking at bare statistics McLaren has a far more consistent league record and better cup success.

He is 10 times the player he was at this stage last year. And he deserves credit for that.

I've got the same things, it flared up after I pulled a muscle in my lower back. I was given anti inflamatories for the muscle, but that's now healed and the Sciatica remains in it's legacy. I'm currently following the advice on here: http://www.spine-health.com/wellness/exercise/overview-sciatica-exercises So far it seems to be helping.

Putting 300 Million of your own cash into a team will do that.

He was given a horrifically short shrift by the Newcastle fans who cannot recognise that he saved them from probable oblivion. Hopefully the Geordies will get what they deserve for treating him like that. I would welcome him with open arms. If he even put a fraction into Saints that he did into Newcastle it would set us up for years to come.

The curl on that shot! What a f*cking stunner!!!

After all the Pro Lowe/Anti Lowe/I just support the team stuff, my excuse of money being tight and not being able to get the time off work to travel sounds a bit tame. I do think the low attendances are a bit to do with the current economic slowdown to be fair. Coupled with uncertainty over how the team will fair it makes it less likely people will spend money on something that could ultimately leave them feeling cold.

Don't knock it until you've tried it.

Why not yourself?

Would be wonderful if true, but I can't see it happening, just makes too much sense.

I doubt it will be just us who are starting to plummet in terms of value. Any club on the stock exchange who are not owned by a benefactor will now be feeling severe pressure.

Fair play for him doing it for a charity. Can't act to save his life though!

Ricardo Fuller in our first year in the Championship. Brett Ormerod for doing all the running to create space for Beattie to work his 'thing.'

It would take a very long time. Just get a Taxi. I've walked from the Ricoh to the City centre in an hour 20 minutes before.

Don't call them Spanish!!!! Dear christ don't do that! :smt076

He's surely not involved with that lot is he!? How is he getting away with it?

Cooooo, that took me apart! I would suggest that Heathrow is not the best choice. Expanding Biggin Hill on the other hand, much better.

Oh come on, it is sometimes funny to try and get his responses.
