Michael Laudrup wanted to talk, and so did Frank de Boer.

For a couple of days last week, Patrick Vieira was open to the idea of discussing Newcastle United’s head coach vacancy as a way of fast-tracking his own managerial development – before the interest fizzled out with both parties adamant that the other one had been the instigators.

There had been others, too. With Remi Garde it went as far as the interview process while Christophe Galtier and Jocelyn Gourvennec, talents, would have been amenable.

Yet Newcastle took a head count of these candidates – one or two of whom might have had a seriously transformative impact on the club – and went, instead, for Steve McClaren.

Not sure whether i should laugh or cry.

Cry imo.

No idea who it is but seems like we are getting a new backroom staff with the new manager.

As Carver and the entire backroom staff from Pardew is being sacked.

FC Schalke 04 are after Augsburg's Markus Weinzierl now. Looks like Marc Wilmots is too expensive... If Markus Weinzierl is clever, he will say "thanks, but no thanks" and just enjoy the season with Augsburg.

Weinzierl is a smart guy and has declined Schalke's offer, according to SportBild and kicker and his agent.
Thank god, I like Weinzierl and he doged a bullet there.

Looking forward to watching Newcastle lose to West Ham in the pouring rain, with McLaren standing there with his umbrella.

by Jay29 Wed Jun 10, 2015 6:12 pm

McClaren's one of those sit-in-the-stand managers these days, so unfortunately you may not get to see him with an umbrella.

I wonder if he'll take Will Hughes with him to Newcastle.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Wed Jun 10, 2015 6:21 pm

We are such pitiful *bleep* btw Laughing

Only allowing Sky and The Mirror to speak with Mclaren Laughing

Keeping it all at arms length to make sure no one asks anything difficult Laughing

damn well know all the interviews will be monitored the *bleep* out of as well.

by Hapless_Hans Wed Jun 10, 2015 6:35 pm

I just said that because if I'm not mistaken Bilic was Croatia manager on that fateful day, no?

Bild reports Schalke, with Weinzierl having turned them down, have turned their interest towards former Newcastle manager John Carver

Paulo Sosa to be appointed Fiorentina's new coach-Sky

by RealGunner Wed Jun 10, 2015 9:23 pm

Well Mclaren is at least a proper manager.

Newcastle will finish around 8th-12th for sure

by Art Morte Wed Jun 10, 2015 10:05 pm

I don't know, McLaren doesn't strike me as a charismatic and motivational manager and that's what Newcastle's squad needs. It could end badly.

I heard that Carver got reinstated as a member of the board of directors, is this true Mole?

No lol.

Although the board of directors has been revamped....

It consists of Carr ( head scout and basically DOF) McClaren, Charnley (finance pos) and Moncur ( captain of the last team to win a trophy and all round Ashley dickrider)

From what I read, the Basel fans in certain forums are more than happy to see him leave. They said it is actually great that they don't have to sack him and continue to pay him, but instead get some transfer fee for him XD

by DeviAngel Thu Jun 11, 2015 1:42 am

For a minute there I was worried Mole won't show up and post when I heard the news Laughing
