The Sunday Sun reports that Kinnear is ready to bring in some coaching help at Newcastle, but quickly adds that he will retain all of the coaching staff currently at the club.

Joe Kinnear - new coach coming in
Kinnear has a coach lined up, but we don’t know for sure if it is Gerry Francis, Robbie Earle or somebody else, or even more than one.
But Joe thinks the person he has lined up can make a difference to Newcastle’s fortunes, but rightly fears that revealing who he is, could undermine his position. That’s through personal experience of this last week, no doubt.
Joe told The Sunday Sun today:
“I’ve got plans to bring in other people around me but I daren’t even mention it because I know he’d probably be in serious trouble before he got here,”
“He’ll be involved in coaching and we’ll just get on with it. No one’s leaving, no one at all. I’ve assured them all that there’s no problem with the jobs for everyone Kevin Keegan employed. “That’s not a problem, I just need to bring in someone else.”
“I’ve negotiated to bring in some- one else but it will be specialized stuff, Tuesday and Thursday only, two hours after we finish training to work on specific things I want to work on, individual stuff.
“Him coming in will be a different voice, he’s got a vast amount of experience. It shouldn’t get an adverse reaction but the way things are going at the moment, who would you trust?”
He’ll be keeping everybody Keegan employed because the chances are high that Kevin will be returning in about 5 weeks, so that’s good, because the very last thing we need right now is even more upheaval at the club.
This sounds good to us, and if he can help Joe with bringing success back and getting some wins for Newcastle, that’s just fine with us.
Comments welcome.

Sounds good to me, seem a bit shorthanded in coaching since terry mac and adam sadler left and wern’t replaced

Hope Guthrie can prove his worth today.

Never rush a player coming back from injury

WHatever anyone says, I don’t care but KK is a w*****! If he loved the club, he wouldn’t have left for whatever reason and left us in this mess! i’VE BEEN SUPPOETING nufc FOR 30 YEARS so I spk with some exeprience. I really don’t want to see him back as most of us Newcastle fan club in Corby, Northants!
10 Shane // Oct 5, 2008 at 13:08

i think the lads are getting some boxing lessons, or perhaps maybe even dable in a bit of wrestling.

Watch Newcastle kick lumps out of Everton today. For the 1st time in my life, I dnt care how we play as long as we get a result. It’s only a matter of time till Spurs start winning and that will leave us in it!
13 Thump // Oct 5, 2008 at 13:12
@Frankieboy: Beye has said he won’t be returning today because it’s too soon for him, but he’s expected to be playing at the Man City game.
@Rocky: That isn’t what we were discussing. Please uncross your eyes and re-read the article.
14 murvar // Oct 5, 2008 at 13:13
Rocky - don’t blame the victim. Things were rotten before he went and he didn’t create the crisis. If anything, the fans’ reaction is more responsible for the current mess but neither Keegan nor the fans are the true culprits. KK’s departure has created the possibility of a better future with owners who will have learned from this. KK’s return will be triumphant.

27 KK FOREVER (Ross) // Oct 5, 2008 at 14:17
If he’s only gonna be here as long as kinnear, then its not that big of a deal. maybe they work well together, who knows. Just let it happen, it cant get any worse!
as for todays team, i think we’ll see the same as blackburn etc, purely with the introduction of guthrie for cacapa.
28 Paul // Oct 5, 2008 at 14:25
Very constructive kk forever. It’s no wonder that no one wants to touch a bunch of vicious, ill bred ingrates like us with a bargepole.
29 Ganiyu // Oct 5, 2008 at 14:39
How can we win todays match when we dont take long shot
30 Toon Graeme // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:06
Anyone else clock watching to kick off.
Need 3 points and Hull must beat the spuds!! To keep the pointage tight we need Bolton to loose, Hull to win and stoke to loose or we are well behind the rest.
Hate international break!
31 Toon Graeme // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:12
Come on Hull!!! 0 - 1!!
32 Andy1 // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:13
Not happy with the team. Can Zog and Duff get enough support for Owen? Why play Cacapa ahead of Bassong at centre back?
33 Toon Graeme // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:13
Caccapa starting again boys - Guthrie mid and duff owen upfront
34 Turkish magpie // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:15

37 Toon Graeme // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:18

42 Toon Graeme // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:24
Chelsea and Man City winning too. Doesnt affect us in the immediate but just letting any closet top table fans know….
43 HATE PRAWN SANDWICHES // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:26
Is anyone else thinking the sale of the club is just a ploy to eventually see the fans calm down after September and Ashley carries on with the ownership of the club? Although yes we need coaching staff, if we are close in a potential buyer buying the club, who or why would we want interim coaches, all the staff including JFK is London based! are the two African consortium’s a rouse to take pressure off Ashley or is it just to hike up the sale of the club + now we are lead to believe there is now a deadline time and date to put in a bid!?!I don’t know if its just me being cynical but I was right about my original thoughts on Ashley! or have we got a secretive buyer in Anil Ambani as he is in London looking supposadly at west ham and spurs?? who knows but I just feel there are more and more ex spurs players and coaches coming to the club! just doesn’t feel right!
44 Toon Graeme // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:26
The lads are on the pitch. Could see them behind sounsess’s huge head!
45 Toon Graeme // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:28

46 Toon Graeme // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:30

Come on lads
48 HATE PRAWN SANDWICHES // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:32
Hope the senior squad players and our staff members have got us playing better and with confidence! just hope we nick all three points today!
49 simon376 // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:33
Think you could be right HPS, hope not but nothing shocks me anymore
50 simon376 // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:42
Joe Kin has just said what we all knew, its a matter of time, only be sold when he gets the money he wants. Nots suprised there at all, but could take a while
51 Nick // Oct 5, 2008 at 15:46
Paul
I think you have to blame the lack of parenting skills for Kk forever. With him, if anyone has a different opinion, kinnear them with some braindead moronic bile. bet his teachers love him.
