Once again, the mind bogggles at the stupidity of the Newcastle board.
You're in dire straits, facing the very real prospect of relegation, and what do you do?
You appoint a manager, with absolutely no previous management experience.
Great Player does not always equal Great Manager (Bryan Robson, anyone?)
Newcastle Utd need a firefighter, not a novice.
So, adios, Newcastle. See you in back in the premier league in a few years (if you're lucky).

Ah, so just because he's (just about) able to articulate a few banal sentences about other manager's football teams, that makes him potentially a tremendous manager?
You should hear me when I'm watching Match of the Day. I've played the game all my life and, from the comfort and safety of my armchair, and with the benefit of hindsight, I can pontificate just as well as Lawrenson, Hansen, Shearer et al.
That doesn't mean I'd be able to manage a team.
And, you can't compare Shearer to the likes of Klinsmann or Rijkaard. If you do, we then have to point to those players intellects. They are intellectual giants compared to Shearer.
You know what they say about a fool and his money...
You're on. Tenner says they finish no higher than eleventh.
cher-ching!
