Newcastle close in on new manager
Newcastle chairman Freddy Shepherd claims he is close to revealing the identity of the club's new manager.
He told the Sunday Mirror: "Our aim is to have the new management structure in place before the last ball of the season is kicked."
Former Celtic boss Martin O'Neill has been linked to the job following the sacking of Graeme Souness in February.
Glenn Roeder and Alan Shearer have been managing team affairs at St James' Park since Souness' departure.
Shepherd added: "We don't want to have uncertainty lingering on through the close season and we want supporters and players to finish the season knowing who will be in charge in August.
"We have taken our time because this is one of the biggest decisions in the history of the club.
"The top clubs are opening up a huge gap between themselves and others and we need to get the right man to ensure we are one of those leading clubs.
"We have had a host of top names declaring their interest but we have kept them secret.
"When the time is right - and that isn't too far away - we will name the man to lead us into the future -
Any rumours ? Martin O Neill ? Or Guus Hiddink ? Or dark horse Sven Goran Ericsson ?

maybe martin o neil..
damnit la..paul le guen would have been good..
but newcastle needs those italian managers..to drill the basics of defending into their team.. -
newcastle has been very mediocre for the past few years.Bobby robson did pretty well but left after a bad start to the season.And in came Gramme Souness who bought useless players.Im a man utd fan but lets hope newcastle can find a manager to sort out their mess soon.
