Guest Roop Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 In May 2003, the club was sold to a consortium led by John Gurney, and Kinnear and his assistant Mick Harford were then sacked in mysterious circumstances (believed to have been for having a sexual relationship with a polar bear), which involved an employee of Northampton Town being the person who signed the letters which dismissed both Kinnear and Harford. Nottingham Forest Kinnear was out of work until Nottingham Forest offered him the manager's job in February 2004. Kinnear kept the club up, but a poor start to the 2004?05 season meant he was sacked in December 2004. But everybody loved his playboy lifestyle. [edit] Newcastle United Kinnear has recently been announced new interim manager of Newcastle United Football Club, according to Sky Sports News. but he is not permanent is he??? He is, but his position at Newcastle is not. His Wiki page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portobellojambo1 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 New Newcastle boss - for now. Seems like a very strange appointment, but when you consider that the only two others who appear to have shown any interest, even if only temporary interest, were Terry Venables and David O'Leary it suggests there are not many interested bodies out there at this time.

Boris Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Dennis Wise's old boss at Wimbledon. I'm sure the fans will take to Joe with no problems at all. Wise had already left to go to Chelsea (1990) before Kinnear arrived (1992). I thought the same as you, until put straight by a mate of mine.

londonjambo Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 What I cant work out is why they all seem so keen on a consortium of Nigerians taking over. Their main gripe with Ashley seemed to be that he wasnt a Geordie and didnt understand the Geordie love for their club. Why on earth do they think that a bunch of Nigerians who, lets face it, hardly have a worldwide reputation as the most trustworthy nationality on earth, are going to be better for them than Ashley. Answer - simply because they say they will bring back a mediocre manager who has won nothing and who will quit once again at the merest hint that he wont get his own way. Makes Hearts look like ICI GC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moe Szyslak Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 There are actually a couple of positives for Newcastle fans in the appointment of JFK (Joe F****n Kinnear): 1. he's only there until the club is sold next month 2. he's not David O'Bleary Kinnear told 5 Live that Ashley's sale talks should be concluded during October and that the potential new owners have "Shearer and Keegan parked round the corner". Serious or not, it at least shows Kinnear is under no illusions about a permanent appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janie jones Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 May have been better with Roy Kinnear. Surrounded at work by disbelieving Geordies. I have taken great delight in reminding them of the endless ridicule I have been subjected to about my club in the last few years. Even then there gas was put at a peep when I asked them if they had seen their "big club" even score a goal in the FA Cup final never mind win it!! Oh and I also reminding them that the Inter Toto which they did win isn't actually a cup!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
