That's funny because i could have sworn that you said he wasn't leaving at all!

couldn't be arsed reading all this but has anyone pointed out that nothing is official at all yet and that 5live didn't report it as such, just that he was tipped to be the new manager??? Yawn! Wrong again. Five Live said that he HAS been appointed the new manager of Newcastle and that the club wil...

The Chronicle would never presume to speak for the supporters but those I have spoken to fall into three categories - those who would accept the appointment of Allardyce with reservations, those who are dead against it, and those who wanted to see the end of Roeder and are pleased that he has gone ...

Let's see... Newcastle or Chelsea? Tough decision.

It could be, I mean could , that fat Freddy has spotted an opportunity, with Sam resigning that he could pick up the manager he wanted last time around, so sacks Roeder, then quickly calls the big man. Hard to believe when Sam has accepted so soon after Roeder goes, but it's possible......??? :? It...

I absolutely agree that it stinks, although as someone else said, live by the sword and die by it: I imagine when the news is confirmed there'll be a few Magpies in Nottingham with smirks on their faces. I have also been told by trusted sources that Shepherd has been openly chasing Allardyce - in p...

He turned around two struggling clubs before he came to us - and I for one was delighted when we appointed him based on his managerial record. Correct. But there were a lot of supporters who didn't want him here at the time (people who are already on Sammy Lee's back should take note) However Allar...

Can we take that 'Thanks Sam!' graphic down now? Aye, when he relegates us and stops us making the top eight four seasons on the bounce. We hear a lot about what Allardyce did for the club, not so much about what the club has done for Allardyce. Do explain to us naifs. Way I saw it, we (yes, we, fo...

If you think that players are not capable of making life very difficult for the club if they want to leave, then you're being very naïve.

I heard the 5 live piece and they had a interview with Chris Waddle. Old Chris is not the biggest fan of Bolton and Allardyce and he wouldn't commit to saying the appointment was wonderful. "Newcastle fans love exciting attacking football" he said. Well they're buggered then. Also, not many of the ...

Allardyce had two years to run on his contract. Didn't stop him walking. As for any compensation from Newcastle, dream on. Why do you think that he resigned? Can we take that 'Thanks Sam!' graphic down now?

The bright side..... Big Sam does come calling for any of our players, we won't be selling any of the ones he'd want cheap (i.e. Anelka, Nolan, Diouf, Davies, Faye etc).

Still think he'll chip up for a wave and a jig on Sunday? From tonight's B.E.N: 'Allardyce, meanwhile, is expected to turn down a chance to say his goodbyes to the fans he left behind at the Reebok. He has been invited by chairman, Phil Gartside, to attend Sunday's final match of the season. But Al...

'Good luck'?! He's shafted us out of millions of pounds in compensation! There's a right way and a wrong way to leave a club.
