Many see Wise as the 'cuckoo in the nest', but we must remember it was Ashley who brought him to the club, and after all ... isn't Wise just doing what he is employed to do?The Mail: "Dennis Wise's fragile hold on his position as part of the Newcastle United hierarchy is close to breaking point.
"With Joe Kinnear's role extended from interim boss on a monthly deal to manager until the end of the season, as first revealed in Sportsmail five weeks ago, Wise, the executive director (football), looks likely to go in the near future."
Mind you, no quotes from The Mail and nothing to confirm the story.
Speculation ... and no more.
