However, we are giving you three options, inspired by Crystal Palace’s decision (see below) to bring back former boss Roy Hodgson.

Before Eddie Howe came along, NUFC had short-term contracted John Carver and four permanent appointments as Newcastle United Manager since December 2010.

Just for a bit of ‘fun’, wondering in what order fans would put the following three most recent NUFC bosses (leaving out Rafa Benitez) if it came to needing a new Newcastle United Manager, in the style of what Crystal Palace have done.

In what order would you put these three if Newcastle United needed saving…

***The poll is now closed, please go HERE to see the results.

We will bring you the results / fan preferences on Wednesday.

Crystal Palace official announcement – 21 March 2023:

‘Roy Hodgson has been appointed manager of Crystal Palace F.C. until the end of the season, with Paddy McCarthy taking the role as his assistant manager, and Ray Lewington returning as first-team coach. Dean Kiely will remain in his position as goalkeeping coach.

Hodgson first managed Palace, his boyhood club, between September 2017 and May 2021.

Chairman Steve Parish said: “I would like to welcome Roy and Ray back to the club. We are obviously in a very challenging period but we believe that Roy’s and Ray’s experience, knowledge of the club and players, alongside Paddy can help fulfil the immediate requirement of keeping us in the league.”

Roy Hodgson commented: “It is a privilege to be asked to return to the club, which has always meant so much to me, and to be given the important task of turning the team’s fortunes around. Our sole objective now is to start winning matches, and to get the points necessary to ensure our Premier League status.

“Crystal Palace is known for its fighting spirit, and I have no doubt that all our supporters will fight with us, beginning with the visit of Leicester City a week Saturday.”
