Shearer has an amazing end of season,  Kinnear gets moved 'upstairs'/out the back door and Wise gets shot and then Shearer takes it on perminantly in the summer.


Someone make it happen.


All things considered this would be a dream scenario at this point.

No matter what you say about Kinnear I don't see him being difficult when it comes to working with someone in the DOF position and Shearer is strong enough and respected enough to make his voice heard.

God do we need a boost right now.

Shearer saw what I posed in the Owen thread and was inspired, clearly
"Hey, you're gonna build Beansie a ramp!"

"You should build him a ramp on his house."

Unbelievable!

A desperate move by the club, if it turns out to be true. Just wonder why the hell Shearer would agree to come in - now of all times?

Cos he knows he could potentially do something about us dropping out of the premiership??

It's a month too late, if it happens. Could be setting himself up for a huge fall if we do go down. Ashley must really be desperate to win the fans back over.

If it's true, I hope he can turn it around. I just don't have a good feeling about it at all.

The thing is though, if we go down then it's a good time for him to take the reins anyway.

Shearer has come out before and said he would never work for Ashley under his system didn't he..? Can't see it happening lads..
"We make you feel good about yourself. “Oh well,” you will say when you glance around your settled squad of players, your suited and booted chairman who drinks orange juice in the stand and your manager who has been in charge for three years. “It may all be quite sensible and a bit mid-table here, but at least we are not Newcastle.” It is nice to make people feel good about themselves."

Surely even Sky wouldn't lower themselves to reporting this for hours purely for a prank?

Growing speculation...

Could...

Lots of caveats in their report, I'll wait till it's confirmed before getting excited.

Sky Sports News understands that Newcastle United are set to appoint Alan Shearer in a managerial capacity for the remainder of the season.

Current boss Joe Kinnear is currently recovering from heart surgery and he was due to meet cardiologists next Monday to determine if he is fit to return to the touchline.

However, it has been suggested that he could move to a role upstairs, possibly as director of football, and St James' Park legend Shearer could be set to take over.

The 18th-placed Magpies are battling Premier League relegation and are desperate for a boost to escape the drop zone.

More to follow...

We would just have to have Chelsea first ffs
“What is a club in any case? Not the buildings or the directors or the people who are paid to represent it. It’s not the television contracts, get-out clauses, marketing departments or executive boxes. It’s the noise, the passion, the feeling of belonging, the pride in your city. It’s a small boy clambering up stadium steps for the very first time, gripping his father’s hand, gawping at that hallowed stretch of turf beneath him and, without being able to do a thing about it, falling in love.” - Sir Bobby Robson

Indeed. If it's a joke I'm pretty sure they'll be part of the ones being had.

Very interesting stuff!

I imagine it's more likely to be an April Fool by the person who gave the "Unconfimed report" to Sky than Sky themselves.  Surely they know how little sense of humour the butt of the joke would have about that, they might as well do an April Fool about a terrorist attack in London or the Pope dying.

EDIT: But then we get stupid "unconfirmed reports" and equally crazy real events happening pretty much every day of the year, it's no surprise if it's one or the other that's just fallen on April the 1st.
