Souness, Keegan, Houllier, Shearer--don't the Geordies want to WIN?

I am extremely underwhelmed with the names that Newcastle have been linked with for their now vacant managerial post. I'm not sure what I'm expecting but two former managers, a former player that doesn't want it, and an idiot Frenchman ain't it. (Discounting Mark Hughes because he's linked with every empty post in England).

It's club football's poison chalice, isn't it? You have deluded fans wanting the glory of just losing the title 15 years ago, a history of revolving door for managers since then, and new leadership that just sacked the best man for the job.

Reading the press today makes it look like Houllier may be the man for the job... God help us all.
