alpine_saint Posted 1 April, 2009 Share Posted 1 April, 2009 Needs to steer well clear. Whatever stance he would take would polarise support amongst our deeply-divided fan base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie@home Posted 1 April, 2009 Share Posted 1 April, 2009 Knowing Matt, he has much more sense. Besides, I can't see what he could do to make things better - he's not that rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colinjb Posted 1 April, 2009 Share Posted 1 April, 2009 I'm sure he would love to, sadly he is also a realist and knows he is a) too nice to be an effective manager and b) isn't rich or ruthless enough to save us at board level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Window Cleaner Posted 1 April, 2009 Share Posted 1 April, 2009 Probably not as he's never been arsed (his words not mine) to obtain even the most basic coaching certificate. He did start once but found it boring and didn't finish it.Unless he's done it lately of course but I fancy not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Window Cleaner Posted 1 April, 2009 Share Posted 1 April, 2009 I'd be surprised if Shearer actually does any good at Newcastle. He's in a win/win situation, if they don't go down he's the geordie messiah as usual. If they do go down it will be the fault of Ashley/Kinnear/MacDonald's/Gordon Brown because he didn't have enough time to turn it around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david in sweden Posted 1 April, 2009 Share Posted 1 April, 2009 and come and save us from obscurity, his club needs him, not sure what he could do but surely there is something. I'm not sure that I even believe the Shearer story TBH, after all it is April 1st and he's refused the job many times before. As for MLT, he's a legend in his own right, let's leave it there.. Can anyone really see him making players train harder..when he was the " easiest-going " (synonym for lazy) player we've had in the last 30 years .. but a great goal scorer. Hire him as part time coach to show the youngsters how to take penalties and free kicks, that's a good investment of his skills , but not as manager.

mirra Posted 1 April, 2009 Share Posted 1 April, 2009 Huge rumour going round Glasgow that Celtic are in discussions about a takeover. It gets them into the English League & they see it as a route to the Premier & the money. WGS more than happy to come back & manage. Celtic leave a "second" team in the Scottish League & that gets it more competitive. It's seen as the reason Celtic didn't spend during January & they now have less than £1m debt. Could be interesting...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW11_Saint Posted 1 April, 2009 Share Posted 1 April, 2009 and come and save us from obscurity, his club needs him, not sure what he could do but surely there is something. We need more than Matt unfortuantely - big bucks and some real business acumen. In other news, I see another of our old boys, Iain Dowie is off to Newcastle to be Alan Shearers #2.

Capel Saint Posted 1 April, 2009 Share Posted 1 April, 2009 Would be a risk to appoint a man with no management experience. Great players do not necessarily make great managers.

ooohTerryHurlock Posted 1 April, 2009 Share Posted 1 April, 2009 But look what Nial Quinn has done at Sunderland - The popular figure head of a consortium. MLT would surely fit this bill - knows and love s the club. Unifys the fans and a great front man. This would be my preffered role for him. BTW - Too many people are quick to write him off as a potential manager. We need someone to believe in and some one to give us hope - MLT has always done that...to be quite honest he could still play at the level we are at now... not the whole game of course!
