But the trouble is they have adopted the policy of changing their manager all the time these past few years unlike before where managers were given more time to develop the squad and bring on some of their young players.

So you were never convinced then of the usual hype that surrounds ex players becoming managers.

It never works, Wimbledon used to sell their best player every year same as Southampton and sooner or later it catches up with you, they were quick to take the plaudits for this strategy but I think I even posted a couple of years back it would only end in disaster and the thing with young players is that there isn't a never ending flow of them, if you're lucky enough to be blessed with a good crop make the most of them because they won't last forever

Probably couldn’t handle the booze as well as SFA.

Some top class managers have been ex players and only a small number who never played at a decent level have made it to the highest rank of managers, so on balance having played the game does help.

Re: Season 2018/2019
Peter Kenyon is heading the US consortium currently in talks with Mike Ashley. Although the telegraph believes he's one of two solid parties with a third now just entering the frame. The second again is a US billionaire and the third they suspect is a Turkish media group. Unsure on what the deal is with Kenyon other than what Ashley said on Sky, it's at an advanced stage. The other US party is supposedly willing to pay 300 million outright and the Turkish connection is very early if it even exists.
Its the January window soon though. Another Ashley curtain for when he inevitably spends nothing in January and can fall back on blaming takeover deals that didn't go through.

Re: Season 2018/2019
Seems Kenyon and Rockefeller Capital are going ahead in pursuing a deal. Just seems like we're at Staveley again. Ashley's claims that they're more advanced than ever could merely be a January window blanket.

l think you could well be right as most Newcastle supporters take what Ashley says now with a pinch of salt.

Re: Season 2018/2019
Seems there's truth in it. Fourth party launches a 300 million takeover. Surely 1 out of four can get this done.
Updates are coming in from the guardian who are now stating a middle eastern group are in contact. Could be Staveley round two.
However they're now reporting that Kenyon has proved the funding and its very likely if any deal does progress it'll be that. Staff and Lee Charnley have been told to expect a takeover of the club, likely meaning Charnley will be sacked/replaced immediately as well as other staff. Claims that Kenyon himself will assume Charnleys role at the club.
The Newcastle United-Everton joint protest and future boycotts have been called off now.

Re: Season 2018/2019
Peter Kenyon and Rockefeller Capital have been granted access to Newcastle's accounts. The same stage upon which the Staveley bid collapsed. One can only assume what Ashley meant by the most advanced stage is that he's been given evidence of funding for the bid and the future of the club via RCM

Re: Season 2018/2019
It seems Lukaku has fallen out of fashion with Jose.

Re: Season 2018/2019
Hopefully Rockefeller have got some spare dollars lying around so we can stop passing off this diabolical style of play as actual football. Newcastle once again playing some football that you couldn't call Premier league level without being embarrassed.
