Hi everyone new member!!! (not a pessamist or a doom and gloom merchant) just a ccfc fan who now lives in spalding used to live in longford till 2 years ago.
Anyway do you think they will be going after cc or if not will we be going after kk? seeing as before coleman came there was talk of keegan coming here seeing as ransons a friend of his apparantly?
Just a thought, and thought i would say hi this way rather than starting a thread saying hi.

Hello ICHAN how are you? Dont worry mate everyone is friendly on this forum you will be fine!

It sounds like keegan was pissed off with wise's role in the milner transfer..i think that was the last straw!!

Can I just ask what is going on with Keegan? He hasn't been sacked, so their board say, but has he left, or is he still manager? I'm verry confused



Has he just enforced the fact he's a quitter or is he hanging this out???

Help!!!!

 

[ccfc1987]

[pagey89]

whats going on with this has he been sacked or not

 

[skyblueosiris]

Apparently now he remains in charge?????

Having talks with the board apparently!

Bit of a knee jerk reaction on behalf of the press methinks???

 

[skyblueosiris]

No.....he's gone.

 

[Gregsy!!]

Surely they wont let dennis wise take over as manager??

that would be a disaster for them...their fans will go mental!!

 

[tehspecialone]

I heard Dennis Wise, will keep the job he has now, and that Poyet will be made manager.

 

[skyblueosiris]

Den Wise....

we might actually see the home of the toon army empty!!!!!!!

There's an eye opener for Ashley!

 

[Nick]

Is Puyet not well in with Spurs and Ramos now though?

 

[City Nut]

i def think he will draft wise in. must be his buddy.

 

[Gregsy!!]

Who would want to play for them now after doing that to the manager?
especially the players that keegan signed! i feel sorryfor the newcastle fans,they are a good bunch.

apparently there is a takeover about to happen at newcastle and KK has been made one of the favourites to be put in as manager again if it happens

apparently he dropped from 100/1 to 16/1 in a few hours yesterday
