Whatever the truth of the Toon rumour, something stinks at the club. I always knew we had a crap match in us but the way March went, who saw that coming.

No smoke without fire in this case.

Mac has never closed down rumour, just skirted round it.

So we really did sign McCormack, Rhodes then?

So when Dyche dismissed the rumours by saying "its just paper talk I'm happy here" which is exactly what McClaren did thats not closing it down?

Where the papers are concerned theres always smoke without fire! By and large one cannot believe 75% of whats written!

As for March - so the injury list had nothing to do with results then?

I think your putting 1 and 1 together and making 3, for me its all just gossip, we will see no doubt at the end of the season.[/quote]

The difference is Dyche unequivocally shut it down within days. Mcclaren was giving politician type answers and it took a S

Let him go to Newcastle..he'lll always jump ship to "bigger". Remember last time when he went to Man u

Teams now worse than last year so what's the loss. He won't go til summer though so derby get the couple of million in compo

He should of Categorically put the rumours to bed instantly, like Sean dyche has but instead he left it lingering and festering, causing insecurity with the fans and by the looks of it, the players as well

As I understand it NUFC have already paid £2 million in compensation for SM, not gonna say who, but a very senior member of staff was quoted as saying this. So, as most rumours seem to support, if he has gone or at least is gonna go, surely we dont want promotion with a new manager and possibly a number of departures of the first team...?
