'No Lose' Joe Looks For New Club!
Joe Kinnear: "I always look at the other side of it. If I'm not successful, where would it lead to? If I'm successful, I know where it would lead to.
"I don't know about a no-lose situation. I want to be successful because even if I'm not the man who will be here with the new consortium, I can carry whatever I do here to my next job, and that might have a big influence on me getting another big job.
"That's my way of thinking. I'm not going to lose the opportunity for that reason."
"You want to get off to a winning start. This is my first game and there's nothing I want more than to kick-start my reign here with a victory.
"The next game is always the most important one. It's a big game. We lost 3-1 there in the final game of last season, and we need to address that and put it right.
"We really need to get ourselves out of the position we are in. The last thing we want to be doing is being in the position where we are in the international break with players moping around.
"It would have a feelgood factor for the following two weeks if we were to go there and get a decent result."
