Kinnear wants Newcastle job

Newcastle interim manager Joe Kinnear has thrown his hat into the ring for the vacant full time job at St. James' Park. The former Wimbledon boss would be honoured to take the role.

“I'll be absolutely gutted if I don't get the job,” he said, before adding, “There's no other way to put it. When and if the new people come in, I will be the first to throw my hat into the ring.

“Whatever happens, I will leave this place in a lot better shape than it was in when I came here. That is for certain.”
