Shearer to be next Cardiff manager?

[Sluffy]

Former England captain Alan Shearer is in talks with Cardiff over succeeding Dave Jones as boss of the Championship club, BBC Sport Wales understands.

The ex-Magpies manager, 40, is the latest name to be linked with the club.

Another former Newcastle boss, Chris Hughton, is also believed to have been on Cardiff's shortlist along with Watford boss Malky Mackay.

Ex-West Bromwich Albion manager Roberto di Matteo and Scot Derek McInnes have also been linked to the role.

Is there any sentiment involved between the two parties?

Bit of a risk for Cardiff.

Shearer and Bellamy are great mates.

According to today's tabloids Shearer has turned the job down.

I've just read the Sun and Mirror in the sandwich shop. The Sun claims he's turned it down. The Mirror claims he's going to quit MOTD and take the Cardiff job.

SSN say he's turned it down so I'll believe them I think.

Nice Sandwich?

Chris Hughton would do a decent job for them.

Diddlydee's mum's sandwich shop?

If so, HBWHT?

[DaveBWFC]

No I really went a sandwich shop for a sandwich.

I can only afford to go Didles's mums 'sandwich shop' at the end of the month when I get paid.

I've heard she's a whizz with a cucumber.

[DaveBWFC]

She is but her baps aren't too good tbh.
