Shearer says no to Newcastle
November 29, 2008
To many Newcastle faithful he’s the real messiah, the greatest living Geordie, but Alan Shearer continues to snub the club he supported as a boy when they need him most. The former England striker spent ten years of his career at Newcastle, becoming their greatest ever goal scorer, but sadly never managing to win anything with the Magpies, despite getting to two consecutive FA Cup Finals.
Current Newcastle manager, Joe Kinnear, who took over when King Kev walked out again a few months ago, has invited Shearer to become part of the coaching staff at the club, but Kinnear says that Shearer has turned him down.
Shearer said it was a very kind offer but wasn’t ready for it yet, and I said,’That’s fine’.
There’s a possibility I might bring someone else in on the coaching front now.
It seems inevitable that one day Alan Shearer will return to St James’ Park and take the reigns at Newcastle, as he has admitted himself several times that it would be his dream job, just not yet it seems. With the furore over owner Mike Ashley and his public spat with Kevin Keegan still fresh in the minds at the club, Shearer would be wise to bide his time before returning, perhaps waiting until Ashley sells up.
It’s a difficult position for Kinnear as well, amid constant media speculation about Shearer becoming Newcastle manager.
Take a quick look:I said he would be welcome to come in any time to give the place a lift and work with our strikers.
It was very honourable of Alan. Speculation linking him with the job is never going to go away and we’re both aware of that.
I told him he’s more than welcome here and there’s not a problem, there’s no aggravation between us.
