Subject: bye fat sam

Shearer has alledgedly ruled himself out.

that would suggest why he drifted from 7/4 to 9/2 then

now suspended the betting on next manager after deluge of money for redknapp,also noticed pompey at sunderland this week

funny that wdp, you're usually so rational :)

There are some things that one struggles to be rational with! ;)

The Roedent is one of those, he has relegated more clubs any other manager (I think). lol

And yet he had the second best win rate of any Newcastle manager since 1945. The best win rate was Bobby Robson, Keegan was third I think.

That actually does suprise me, I would have thought Keegan was best!

I might have them the wrong way round.

LOL I thought you were being factual! :)

I try, but my memory is like swiss cheese.

Mine is worse. ;)

Swiss Cheese without the cheese bits.
