Newcastle United fans send message to Unai Emery amid Magpies talks

Newcastle United fans have sent a resounding message to Unai Emery amid his links to the Magpies.

Out of 5,096 people who took part in our survey, 71.2% said they would be happy with the former Arsenal boss as they new manager.

It's a fortnight since Steve Bruce left Newcastle by 'mutual consent' and the Magpies hierarchy are continuing their search for a new man in the dugout.

Recent reports claim that Emery has been told to 'reject' the Magpies advances and remain at Villareal after a lack of clarity over the club's vision.

This morning's news will only further disappoint fans after a dismal start to the Premier League season.

The Magpies are six points adrift from safety and fans had hoped that Emery would be the man to guide them to safety this season.

On the other hand, 14.5% of fans said they would not be pleased with the appointment of the Villareal boss.

That section of the Newcastle fanbase could get their wish if recent reports are to be believed.
