Geordie Saviour

So Alan Shearer is still the Geordie Messiah, and despite relegation is still the man to turn things around at Newcastle. When will people realise that you can't just hire an ex-player with no decent managerial experience. Mike Ashley showed his confidence in Shearer with the quote

"Bringing Alan Shearer back to Newcastle United was the best decision I have made"

What results is he looking at?
Shearer managed for 8 games, losing 6, drawing one game with Stoke and beating relegation bound Middlesborough. Come on..that is shit. Compare that with his predecessor Joe Kinnear, an experienced manager who played 23, won 5, drew 10 and lost 11. Kinnear drew 1-1 with Chelsea, Shearer lost 2-0 to Chelsea (at St James Park).
Look at other recent player-to-manager movers - Ince (sacked), Keane (sacked), Southgate (relegated), Adams (sacked) - the list goes on. All of the sacked people were replaced with good old fashioned football managers who kept their teams up and rescued them from the mess these players had left them in.
Hey ho, give Shearer a few million and the gravy train goes on.
