Shearer faces delay over Newcastle job, Curbs on standby
Newcastle United favorite Alan Shearer will not be offered the St James Park manager’s job until a new buyer is found for the club.
Current owner Ashley will not appoint Shearer after the pair disagreed on issues to take the club forward during a series of meetings following the clubs relegation.
If a new buyer is not found in the next month, then we understand that former Charlton Athletic and West Ham manager Alan Curbishley is on standby to take the hot seat, on a temporary basis.
Meanwhile, The Singapore-based Profitable Group has confirmed its interest in buying United.
The company released a statement on its official website stating that they have made contact with investment bankers Seymour Pierce.
The statement read: "A preliminary discussion with representatives appointed to handle the sale of the club has been held. There will be no further comment at the present time."
