  • Finally officially confirmed by Newcastle:

    "Newcastle United have appointed Joe Kinnear as the Club's new Director of Football on a three-year deal. Joe will report directly to the club's Board as the senior executive in charge of all football-related matters. Chief scout Graham Carr and manager Alan Pardew will report into Joe.

    I 'ran into' Kinnear once @ Euston station where he was having a few beers/whiskeys in one of the bars. It was a while ago. He struck me as being a senile old bugger then , I doubt if his mental faculties have improved all that much in the meantime.
  • I had a great night at the stow with him and vinnie jones and a few pals whom i know and he was a top top bloke that night you can only take as you find and i liked him

    I agree, good bloke and as daft as a brush
  • He was funny full of great stories and boy do him and vinnie know their dogs

    Walked away minted that night just following what they done at a much lower rate of exchange but i aibt ever won so much dough in one sitting ever
  • Kinnear is a dinosaur and so out of touch with the modern game it's untrue. If there is a more ludicrous appointment this season I'd be surprised.
    He epitomises everything that is wrong with the old style English football manager.

    That's an amazing interview, totally off his rocker.

    Next season the PL is going to be brilliant viewing, maybe not from a football point of view though.

    "I haven't got an ego," he claims, having just boasted about his achievements in football, some of which aren't entirely accurate. He's a fruitloop.

    Pardew gives the impression that he finds all his players on YouTube.

    So as long as Joe can sit down in front of a laptop with a pint in his hand, he'll be just fine.

    A bit of a cliche - I know he was a regular visitor to SC Freiburg from whom he signed Cisse.

    Must be a Newcastle thing. Didn't someone ask Shola Ameobi what Bobby Robson called him, and he said "Carl Cort"

    Yes, true! Must be something in the water up there.

    His idiocy and honesty is loveable, yohan kebab gave me a chuckle.

    Hopefully will entertain like he has throughout the season.

    I simply cannot believe this appointment - it looks like a prima facie case for Pardew to claim constructive dismissal, no doubt enriching the useless narcissistic oxygen thief further with another pay off. Ashley's motives are utterly transparent, and this is his payback for public criticism.

    As for Kinnear - the bloke has all the brains of an opal fruit (half eaten), as you can see from his Talksport interview. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.

    And then there's his compulsive bullshitting - once again, it just makes him look even more of a tool and even more of an embarrassment to football.

    I feel sorry for the barcodes....I can't imagine how the poor buggers feel about all this....God help them!

    no one to feel sorry for---Pardew ? 8 year contract and what ever he does he gets the big shilling another win win for that slug.
    Geordies? ----no way ----disillusioned Jocks
    The owner ? who gave Pardew an 8 year contract !! or Kineir----care in the community case probably on £2/300K a year minimum.
    No one to feel sorry for -------------let the fun begin.

    Having "run" into Mike Ashley and a threatened court case, which he had no chance of winning IMHO, he doesn't care if he goes to court. He'll make it as painful for Super Alan Pardew for as long as possible.

  • Ashley has had enough of that big nose Goon and isn't that why joe is there? It is total soap opera yohan kebab

    One view is that JK got short term contract make super al untenable. Pardew criticized ashley at a press conference last season and that is getting brought up now in the press

    Fair play to kinnear he says what he likes and they print it. But you can't judge a man in the press

    Used to really like Newcastle as a club (still like it as a place) but just shows you how quickly someone can make a complete arse of it. Careful what we wish for and all that..............
