Joke Kinnear and always will be - never had any time for the man and could never understand the appointment. But glad he has gone but wonder what Ashley's next stunt to annoy the fans will be?

[fishingmark]

A small step in the right direction I suppose. Quite why a man getting a large salary for doing nothing would resign is beyond me. Just shows the mentality of the man.

[Davey1970]

it's all Ashley's ploy, do nothing in 2 window's, sell our best player. get totally out played by safc.
how else can he cheer us up, ask his m8 to do the right thing, "resign", jokeinnear will be well looked after.

never a dull moment at st james.

Joe Kinnear hotline

[Stewart 1971]

Normally stay away from the footie threads but excellent as always from The Mash:

JOE Kinnear has left St James’ Park for the last time with a blank farewell card.

At least the card designers said 'Good Luck!'

Newcastle United’s departing director of football reported solid interest in the glossy A6-sized rectangle but it remained un-inked.

He said: “To you this might look like a blank card with a picture of a downcast owl on it, but what you can’t see is how close I was to getting Shola thingy to sign it or that other one, the French or Mexican lad?”

Kinnear was an unexpected choice when he was appointed director of football last June, having previously been the least popular manager in the club’s history.

The ex-Wimbledon man’s popularity if anything decreased when he mispronounced the names of several players and indeed the city of Newcastle, but he insisted he should be judged on his signings.

A bullish Kinnear subsequently inundated Lionel Messi’s general mailing address with letters, chasing Cristiano Ronaldo with a ballpoint pen and even insisting a deal for Ferenc Puskas was “all but done”.

However Messi never replied, Ronaldo was too fast and Puskas had passed away in 2006. Many fans felt Kinnear’s subsequent attempt to exhume the Hungarian legend was distasteful.

The low point for Kinnear came in the January transfer window when he unveiled himself as Brazilian winger ‘Kinnearinho’ at a press conference sporting an unconvincing wig.

Few Newcastle United fans fell for the trick, knowing full well that Kinnearinho had just signed for Sporting Lisbon.
