Roeder resigns as Newcastle manager
Glenn Roeder has resigned as Newcastle boss after reaching the point of no return.
PA Sport understands the 51-year-old parted company with the club today after 15 months in charge at St James' Park including his spell as caretaker.
He made his decision in the wake of yesterday's dismal 2-0 home defeat by Blackburn which ended the Magpies' faint hopes of claiming the Intertoto Cup route into Europe for the second successive season.
The club are yet to confirm Roeder's departure, although are expected to do so within hours.
Rumours that he had been summoned to an emergency board meeting had been circulating throughout the day, with some suggesting he had been sacked.
Roeder was in defiant mood after yesterday's game, which extended his side's run with a Barclays Premiership goal at St James' to five games - their worst return since 1951 - and a staggering seven hours and 51 minutes.
He said: 'I am very much the same person who was here last year who had a fantastic finish to the season.
'I have not changed as a person. Of course I understand, 100% understand where the fans are coming from.
'They want a winning Newcastle team and I also want a winning Newcastle team.
'At the moment, we have not been winning and I understand their frustration.
'To win matches, you need to score goals and we have not done that for four, five, six weeks now, and that has cost us greatly.
'I do understand their feelings.'
His change of heart sparks yet another search for the man to bring success back to Tyneside for the first time since they lifted the Fairs Cup in 1969, with their last domestic success coming in the FA Cup 14 years earlier.
Roeder's departure comes at the end of a week which has seen frenzied speculation about his position and the availability of Sam Allardyce. However, chairman Freddy Shepherd had earlier insisted he had never spoken to Allardyce, who turned the job down before Graeme Souness was appointed in 2004, about the matter. |
