Hail Shearer
 

I'm still thinking this is an Aprils fools day joke. But why now with 8 games left with three matches that on paper look impossible to win? [Liverpool, Chelsea and Aston Villa]

Re: Hail Shearer
 

he's got nothing to lose and everything to gain...

Re: Hail Shearer
 

29 points from 30 matches. looking at how many points you need to stay up its usually between 35 and 42 points. So, you could say winning 2 matches might be enough. Win 2 and draw 4 and lose 2 and theyre probably safe.

I thought it was an april fool also. Shearer has been doing his badges, and i thought he wasnt keen on Mike Ashley either. He was assistent coach for a short while and can certainly fire up the players im sure. Lets see if it makes a blind bit of difference!

I look forward to Sheffield Wednesday playing Newcastle next season if not! :D

Re: Hail Shearer
 

can someone rename this thread FAIL Shearer when he's manager of a Championship side? :p

Re: Hail Shearer
 

Ha this is the first ive heard of it and i always knew it was going to happen... even to think they have another manager, they must be setting records for the biggest turnover of managers in the world by now. Been a fan since i was 9, Tino Asprilla was knockin balls all over the gaf with his rubber legs, Ginola maintaining his beautiful hair, Ferdinand and his beautiful forehead, Beardsley and his beautiful chin....

..in a way, since 1995/96 they have become a hard team to get reved up about as a fan because they were always so mid table after Keegan left.. and only now, when the cards are on the table and its do or die am i really feeling the fire burn again!

Just hope they can do it, it's bizaar seeing them so low down the table so often, truly a great team at the mercy of its owners and management..

Re: Hail Shearer
 

at least they've got rid of that cockney wanker wise........;)

Re: Hail Shearer
 

absolutely. doubtless he'll be bleating in the press before too long...

the sun, probably. they had a projection of us going down based on predicting results of the teams around us - but totally omitting blackburn somehow? i'm not sure 2 wins alone will be enough, stimps; but i reckon we've got more chance of staying up than we had 2 days ago.

matt - he's said he's only there til the end of the season, so save it - he turned you down; one day you might get over it :rolleyes:

Re: Hail Shearer
 

lol - i'd like him to do well, seriously - fact is he's got a hard job on his hands, tbh he'd do us a favour if he can beat the Scousers, and even Chels... i hope they do stay up... Middlesbrough are a much less of a loss to the premiership...

seriously though, you think they won't try and keep him if they stay up (or even if they go down?) having said yes now, means he's in the job

Joe Kinnear was only 'supposed' to be there for 6 games... look what happened - Kinnear won't be back...

Shearer is waiting to see what happens... its a testing ground for him...

Re: Hail Shearer
 

i'm sure they'll try to keep him no matter what happens!

Re: Hail Shearer
 

now it'll be even funnier if the barcodes go down.........................repeat after me, but we're a BIG club :D
