New Newcastle Manager - A Quick Thought

If Nigerian businessmen really are going to take over Newcastle, and are keen to keep hold of Obafemi Martins and bring in a couple of his compatriots, surely they would be better getting a Nigerian manager.

Someone with a big personality. Someone who can deal with pressure. Someone who can deal with the media. Someone with experience of top flight English football. If necessary, because I reckon he'll survive the switch, someone who can work with Dennis Wise.

And who fulfills all these criteria?

John Fashanu, that's who.

And you thought Joe Kinnear was a bad choice. Awooga!
