Steve McClaren will be given time to turn things around at Newcastle and there was more than one report in the Chronicle last week that Steve McClaren and the new coaching team will be given ample time to get things right.
That may be true but we there was also a report in the Chronicle on April 22nd that John Carver and Steve Stone “were the only viable” candidates for the head coaching job at Newcastle.
And that was after we had been beaten 3-1 at home by Tottenham which was our sixth defeat in a row.
No wonder Newcastle fans were in a panic at that time.
