    Fair play to Dyer. Seems like a top bloke & has matured & learnt life lessons. Remember him scoring a hat-trick v Oxford Utd while at Ipswich. Electric pace & looked like he could be a real top player but can't help thinking wasted talent. Never improved technically. No left foot, couldn't head the ball & awareness was never there. Also the headlines about spit-roasting girls in Ayia Napa with Rio & Lampard made me despise uneducated, wealthy footballers who were so detached from working class fans.

    Ruud wasn’t smart enough and over worked the players during pre season. And dyer was never smart enough or fit enough. When he was he could have bursts of fabulousness but he’s fade away. As for Ruud, He finished in the bottom half with us the season before, changed everything, but only narrowly lost the cup but wouldn’t have got there if not for shearers goals, then in the season he got sacked he completely wore the players minds out and lost them. We were getting beat too easily. Was early in the season but he was lucky to still be there coukd got sacked weeks before. Then entered the great one sir Bobby. To which Bobby had problems with dyer because dyer wasn’t reliable at times. He was better than jenas, but players like solano, speed, shearer and Bellamy carried the team forward. We were just awful at the back. Still finished 4th 3rd and 5th and hammered most teams. And ultimately would have won a few cups of not for getting drawn all the time to Man U who had Scholes Giggs etc.
    anyway, Bobby had a rough start to the season, but he had aged a lot. He didn’t have the same effect on the players wasn’t preparing as much and we weren’t winning plus it was the start of the end because the new owners had taken shape, and the likes of Bellamy dyer Robert etc were causing issues… Bobby was put Graham was in… a clueless man. Split the side up. With dyer playing well but that’s cos he couldn’t slack off with Graham there. Anyway, solano left, replaced by the awful Milner, and speed left, replaced with Nicky butt, Bellamy left so we stuck with kluivert who was well passed his prime, so we got found out couldn’t handle big games and things went bad. Still finished 7th under the late Glen R tho.

    Thats why he failed as a manager. Players aren't alway the same, they arent all the same standard. A good coach recognises this and plays to their players strengths and improves them

    Gullit is and was a prick of a man. Shearer was world class. I don't think he'll care what a narcissist thought or thinks of him. As for bang average players as he says it, Shearer was world class in 1999, Speed, Given, Lee, Solano bang average?

      He's one of the worst managers Newcastle have had and that really is saying something.
