According to today's Sunday Times, Sam Allardyce is on the verge of being dumped as Newcastle boss, and the rumour on Tyneside is that Shearer is set to step in.
The Sunderland Echo claim that Big Sam will lose his job if Arsenal take all three points on Wednesday at St James' Park.
But we hear that Shearer could be in the job BEFORE the fixture with the Gunners.
The bookies have Allardyce odds-on to be the next Premiership manager to get the sack.
