This morning on Alan Brazil they were actually worried he'd gone right off his rocker and maybe he'd had no contact with Mike Ashley?
Bizarre to say the least. Especially the bit about him being more intelligent than the fans, which he clearly isn't!

In what world does Kinnear believe he can spout such nonsense and not get called on it...
Staggering.
Jesus.
I was in job interview few weeks back and afterwards was thinking whether I gave too rosy view of myself. This guy gets new job and goes in front of media and out and out LIES with seemingly no guilty concience.
Now THIS is why the 'director of football' system gets a bad name; clowns empowering clowns to tell other clowns what to do.

That's why I haven't been more vocal against the system despite not liking it in principle. We at least can afford to bring in guys like Beguiristain and Soriano who are, without a doubt, some of the better people in the world in their respective jobs. But then someone like Newcastle watch us and fucking Barcelona and think "hmmmm....they might have a point there" forgetting that they would have hard time attracting anyone actually suitable for the crucial job.
Then they go and hire someone like Joe Kinnear. Now I can only imagine what the thought process was behind it. I mean, Joe Kinnear once did really fine job with Wimbledon as manager. Not going to take that away from him. But he is essentially hired as football executive director here. His forte as manager was that he could make bunch of average guys play to their strengths and got maximum effort out of them. In director of football system that is the job of the coach rather than the director of football. Director of Football doesn't have to be some sort of epic leader of men. He needs to be able to identify talent, strengths and weaknesses of the squad, be able to negotiate with both players already in team and players we are looking to sign. He needs to have mid to long term vision of how he is going to mould the squad. These are strengths of SOME succesfull managers not ALL. For example, I think Jose Mourinho is much better manager than Wenger. But I would NEVER hire Mourinho as director of football but I think Wenger could be even more suited to Director of Football than he is to day to day coaching.
Hell, I would probably rather have Pardew as my DoF than Kinnear.

The bloke employed a fucking reporter from the Sunday People as our director of football.
We still hold the record.

I get the feeling (not having seen him and not knowing him) he's not well enough to be doing a job. I know he was always a bit 'off the wall' but it sounds like he is living in a fantasy world. I can't see him lasting the whole season.

The general opinion though is the job he does is borderline irrelevant. This appointment is designed to push Pardew out the door because Ashley can't sack him due to the massive contract he is on (which has 7 years to run I believe)..
If one man can be twat enough to cause Pardew to relent and resign, it's Kinnear. Working under him will be hell on earth.

I'm aware of the general feeling, having posted about it in the second reply in the thread. I don't like to see people exploited if he IS genuinely unwell (but I'm not really in a position to say one way or the other).
