Newcastle beat that horrible, nasty anti-football team Wigan 1-0, Owen scored again.

Solano's gone though I'm absolutely GUTTED.

No official approach for Jimmy Calderwood about a move but it would seem he isn't dismissing the idea

I wouldn't be especially fussed if he went, yes he has done well in his time here, but some of his decisions are baffling and infuriating. My only concern is who the hell would replace him?

neil warnock anyone?

Would do me.

[Skacel]

a few folk actually saying warnock for Leicester i quite like JC but wouldn't really care if he left.

I wouldn't mind Martin Allen tbh (the bloke who just got punted from Leicester). Seems like a canny up and coming manager, still unproven to a certain extent and a bit of a risk though.

I'd be more worried about losing his contacts to be honest - he's proven that he can land decent players and he does have foreign coaching experience, something that we'd be unlikely to get in any new manager. Given Aberdeen's shocking record in managers, I can't see us replacing Calderwood with anyone decent if he did leave. Nicholl would probably leave too - and what's the odds of getting anyone even remotely as experienced as him as a replacement assistant?

I'd expect that if Calderwood left for down south there would be a small exodus of players like Nicholson, Severin and Smith as they would probably be snapped up by him in the January transfer window.

He is the right manager for Aberdeen but the board haven't exactly opened up their wallets to back him in their European push. They should really have spent the £1m they got for Anderson on a good, solid centre back to replace him.
