The word is that Kinnear will go upstairs and become Director of Football.

Which means that Dennis Wise will leave the Toon...

bloodnut

Mr. Dowie

Brilliant!!!

adamtheaddick

i herd rob lee was his number 2 with warren barton as coach.

bloodnut

Dowie knows the roads around the north east. He should take the Newcastle team for a run!

Weegie Addick

The Dowie bit is surely an April Fool???? But it's after midday....

Vincenzo

Amazing that Dowie can still get work. Mind you, he knows a fair bit about relegation...

WSS

They do crack me up, all talking themselves round that the appointment of dowie is a good one "well shearer must know wot he's doing, i think they played at southampton together, and dowie is a perfect choice and a great coach" blind love is great...........

Mr. Dowie

Brilliant!!!

you could have announced Paul o Grady as Shearer's No 2 they'll be too busy creaming themselves over Shearers appointment

MrOneLung

please take them down Alan/Iain.
would love to see the tears of the 'most passionate fans in the country'

Ledge

fug me thought you were joking about Dowie.

Oggy Red

Anyone notice the order of Dowie's previous clubs .....?

"Sportsmail understands that Iain Dowie, the former QPR, Charlton, Crystal Palace and Coventry boss, will join Shearer's rescue mission with a position on the Newcastle coaching staff."

See, even the Daily Mail ranks Charlton before Palace.

;o)

Maybe this will be one job where Dowie manages to see out the season. Wonder if he'll recommend Faye to come in on loan.

I am a geordie lass so know how much Shearer is loved by the Toon, but this is madness. When will Newcastle learn to act with their heads rather than their hearts. And Dowie as #2!! if only things were different i would have loved to go to a Newcastle v Charlton championship game

razil

he'll have them dragging massive blocks in training and getting hamstring problems then, as well as getting lost on training runs - Newcastle is a madhouse enough already.

MrOneLung

i believe it is only because King Bottler Kev was unavailable.
As one of the papers said - its best possible time for Shearer to try his hand there as if they go down it's not Shearers fault, and if he keeps them up the legend is increased.

LenGlover

Dowie should get his hat-trick of relegations with any luck...

you know what they need.....BOUNCEBACKABILITY!the greatest word to have ever been created for the english language.
