Shearer Set To Leave Newcastle On Monday?
Last updated : 21 May 2009 By Footy Mad - Editor
Shearer came to St James' Park expecting to transform results, but that has not been the case.
We are fighting for our lives on Sunday, after Newcastle only won one of the three home games Shearer said would bring us nine points.
Iain Dowie: "I have said from the first minute we got here that we have taken decisions that are right for the long term of this football club, and maybe that has been perceived as we're staying for the long term, but I don't think that's the case.
"Alan came to me and said 'it's an eight-week job'.
"As far as I'm aware, that eight weeks ends on Monday, nothing's changed. Although it will be a matter for Alan to sit down and talk about it if that's what he wants to do.
"But all our focus is on Sunday and keeping the club in the Premier League."
