I assume that there's already some interest around - or at least I hope so. We can't be doing with too much further instability.
I can understand the decision, because there's so much ill-feeling surrounding him that the atmosphere is far from ideal for the rebuilding job ahead. It also sounds like he and Shearer haven't reached an agreement and understandably it's hard for him to carry on.
I won't condemn the guy. He made mistakes, but Keegan let him down badly. And us.
