Quote from: cheltenhamlion on May 25, 2016, 06:16:08 PMAs I was told it, the catalyst behind Bernstein and King going was that Lerner wouldn't let them recruit a manager until the sale was sorted. As left them with little to do they buggered off and made reference to the sale needing doing quickly.The stuff about players texting Lerner to undermine Garde wouldn't surprise me. You can think what you wish of the competence of Fox but he was very derogatory about the behaviour of some of the players.The lack of manager once Garde went really peed me off. Once Garde left the whole club appeared as though it couldn't give a fk.Whatever we think of Newcastle, they have given themselves the best chance of promotion. A manager who has had time to work out who he does and doesn't want, and now persuaded to stay on.
