Leaving aside whether you believe he will do a good job or not or whether you think he is the right man for the job. We have done that to death now and I know I am risking yet another huge personal slanging match. Genuine question folks in good faith really! Please keep to topic (I live in hope!) Given the fans mood, the political positioning and the timing (not much more than 4 months to end of season) and the question mark about alternatives manager wise? Baring a DISASTEROUS performance by Kenny (which I don’t feel will happen) then I believe the board and Henry have no room to manoeuvre now. I hope they have thought this through but it is very possible they have not and a reactive decision last week may have connotations they may not have foreseen. It is simply not credible if Kenny even moved the club just a tiny fraction forward that the board would bring in a new man. His job would be untenable with a decision that would certainly rile many of the fans and with Kenny watching from the strands. I don’t blame Kenny himself and I am certain he was genuine in the press conference this week but I feel this is out of Kenny’s hands given the circumstances arising. My view remains I am cautiously sceptical and still remember 1991 but still am behind him 100% because as a fan what else is there to do? But I simply cannot see how the board (And Mr Henry) can do anything else but offer him the long term contract and a transfer budget. I am not sure Henry has quite grasped LFC and the English game he will be in for a big surprise if he thinks he now has any room to manoeuvre.

Why do you only bring up 1991,why do you not mention how he took over at 34 years of age after Heysel,built another successful team and led us to another glorious 5 years?

My opinion is that just as quickly as he has stepped in now,he will step back once an appropriate manager has been found,in no way interferring with the progression of this club.

I am not sure Henry has quite grasped LFC and the English game he will be in for a big surprise if he thinks he now has any room to manoeuvre. Unfortunately these types of situations happen when sentiment gets involved and is why the saying goes there should be no sentiment in football just whats best for the business. I know in many peoples eyes Dalglish will do no wrong, he is arguably the greatest player the Club has ever had and will always be seen like that, but unfortunately that is sometimes not enough, we can all remember Souness and he was exactly the same when he was appointed. The situation I think will probably come to a head at the end of the season as you have said, If Dalglish makes the team even slightly better the fans will demand the Job be given to the man full term. Now this is where the conflict will come into it, we all know Dalglish will never be able to win us leagues in the next 5 season's and it also quite unlikely we will be in the Champions league either, the new Owners will quite rightly think they should have a better return for there money than that and will will probably want there own man in rather than the fans choice which in all fairness is the only thing Dalglish appointment now is. I can see there being conflict and protests against the new owners if Dalglish is not given the job in the Summer myself, it will be sentiment against cold hard business...

Right, and as long as that next manager does what he's supposed to, then we'll have no problems at all. The problems may arise if the next manager initially fails (or even half fails). Then there is a big chance people will start calling for yet another resignment. Then we're a new Newcastle to come!

But in all fairness as we have proved quite recently, we dont treat managers properly do we, the new manager if we do get one in the summer will be treated exactly the same as our previous one, we are Newcastle now not soon to be, right now...

in my opinion u are a tw at.. "in no way interferring with the progression of this club" ur an eejit!! we were in a relegation dogfight at one stage this year and 12th when kenney took over.. i think kenny takin over is a major steping stone in the progression of 'this club' as the obvious shows us he is the rite man for the moment, who are you to say how the situation will develop.. ur own opinion is negative and it sucks! kenny to lead us to our 1st prem trophy next season!!!

Legend you may be right. But did you watch Alan Hansen tonight on carling final. He was clear Kenny was ambtious and wants the job. He will not stand in the way right enough but I think he wants the job and has wanted it for some time. Providing the club and fans want him. The fans do the club may have no choice
