Joe Kinnear: “I’m well aware he (Shearer) is their choice.
“When I was there I was winning them over. It was just a small section of fans on my case. The season ticket holders, the people willing to put bums on seats, were happy with how things were going.
“Since then I’ve had a heart attack and Alan’s gone in. It’s a difficult decision. I’ve got to give it some serious consideration. I’m going back into the fire if you like. A lot of work needs to be done.”
Joe should have been in Shearer's Bar last night (for the Radio 5 talk-in) to see exactly what the fans think of him returning to the club.
I can promise you, 100% in Shearer's Bar DO NOT want him back!
