this is just my opinion, i think mark hughes is just paper talk, and the same with david moyes. i think we will not bring him in on a short contract, i think we are waiting till the 1st of December, when the Chinese season has finished and believe raffa will be are next manager.

I hope your right it would be the best choice fans need to realise rafa is a top manager.

heres my thinking, mark hughes doesn't make any sence what so ever. david moyes, i just carnt see it happening. arteta, howe, and the rest whos been mentioned I think is a massive gamble, we don't want a manager for a couple of months. we need a manager whos tride and tested and knows how to win and make changes when needed. i can see only one man that fits, its raffa.

Don't get the fascination with Rafa . Newcastle have more points under Steve Bruce than they did at this stage last season, and this after selling their top scorer Perez. Not saying I want Moyes or Hughes either but think Rafa is also past his best.

Dunc to be fair we are 25 years past our best mate, Howe is a risk, likewise Arteta, Moyes and Hughes a no for me, Rafa however is a different matter, seems about the best option out of the ones available for me with absolutely no chance of Poch, he will be going to a top side.

Benitez has had a great career and a good choice but I have question marks when someone decides to go to China at that stage of there career.

He has said that he didn't have any offers from european teams so chose China.
Make of that what you will.

I think (again very conspiracy theory) that Mark Hughes name is being ‘peddled’ from within the club, there is no way we are interested but it softens the blow if we do get a Moyes / Rafa in as it may galvanise those who bought the news that Hughes was ever in the mix!
I think Brands will have a massive say in who is brought in. The man is on the board and seems to be ‘teflon’ to the abuse that Marco is getting. Who it will be I have no idea 🙈.
