An interesting one.
The whole McClaren thing has dragged on all week but when it emerged this morning Ashley had flown back to the UK, something was going to happen.
Why Charnley hadn't achieved anything prior to today, is anyones guess.
Most of the backroom team have gone. Including Steve Black, who was part of the Keegan backroom team and who worked with the Falcons and Jonny Wilkinson at their peak.
I remember flying to Majorca on easyjet one year from Newcastle and Black accompanying Wilkinson for warm weather injury rehabilitation.
Ian Cathro is staying. Highly rated after his spell coaching in Spain?
I presume Graham Carr is staying too, despite Benitez getting a 'Manager' name badge, rather than Head Coach.
