Katalinic Posted 16 June, 2013 Share Posted 16 June, 2013 That is funny - hardly the most progressive move and pretty much makes Pardew's position untenable doesn't it? Maybe that's the idea though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angelman Posted 16 June, 2013 Share Posted 16 June, 2013 Ooh, constructive dismissal, luvvly jubbly. Well it was madness to give anyone an 8 year contract, so I guess you are right and that this is the cheaper option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that's the idea though. Exactly - this is how to undermine a manager and Kinnear is stupid if he doesn't know it. Getting the right players in hasn't been their problem...

skintsaint Posted 16 June, 2013 Share Posted 16 June, 2013 Well it was madness to give anyone an 8 year contract, so I guess you are right and that this is the cheaper option. Apparently I heard on fox sports there is a clause in the contract which states if sacked he only gets a pay out for 2 years. Not sure of the point of the contract being 8 years if true.

SuperSAINT Posted 17 June, 2013 Share Posted 17 June, 2013 It seems like a complete joke. Have Newcastle even announced it officially? I just saw him on SSN talking about it.

Wrensup Posted 17 June, 2013 Share Posted 17 June, 2013 Just heard him ranting on talksport, I mean its cool he speaks honestly instead of the normal carefully prepared press speak, but god does he come across a toosser! Also him going on about how he can offer a lot and can talk to any manager in the league, I mean okay I seriously doubt he's got MP's number. I very much doubt also he doesn't know who joe kinear is!

Mouldy Coat Posted 17 June, 2013 Share Posted 17 June, 2013 Maybe Mike Ashley's plan is to get under Pardews skin - massively undermining him and getting Pardews to resign so he doesn't have to pay out the agreement. Obviously playing Devils advocate, but wide boy Kinnear would be well up for an undermining task for 1/4 of the value of the severance package that Pardew will be on ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under Weststand Posted 17 June, 2013 Share Posted 17 June, 2013 Caught the last five mins of the interview on talk sport, the bloke sounded half cut to me. The pronunciation of some of the players was hilarious, Ben Afria , amelobia or amemobia or some such. If I was Newcastle fan listening to that I'd be very worried. The bloke sounded a right delusional tool. I can open any door to any manager in the world LOL. Then he slagged of the fans calling them idiots. Is there any indication from anyone else at Newcastle that this is actually true, as there is still nothing on thier OS. Or are we witnessing another David Icke style public melt down here?

Minty Posted 18 June, 2013 Share Posted 18 June, 2013 He is basically just another Redknapp isn't he? Out-of-date, but thinks he knows it all, and quite happy to lash out at everyone else.

angelman Posted 18 June, 2013 Share Posted 18 June, 2013 They were saying on Talksport that if there was nothing in it and that he was making it up, Newcastle would have squashed the story quick smart. As they haven't, this might well be true. Interesting bit of support from Steven Taylor (if this is true, but it is the Mail who do embellish things on occaisons!) http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2343747/Alan-Pardew-fighting-save-Newcastle-job-Joe-Kinnear-arrival-Steven-Taylor-welcomes-appointment.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
