It’s certainly looking that way.

Not at all, we appointed Mitchell quickly and took the payout from Man Utd. Only thing hampering Newcastle is the psr rules implemented and voted on by tje so called big clubs panicking they’d lose their place at the trough.

How?

He was but senior management won’t care.

Agree with that. But they’ll keep any money we have for someone new in summer I think.

Lose this Saturday and the pressure is massively on. You’re right though - they’ll have watched the games. We can’t beat a low block, then defend poorly on the counter

I think no matter what he gets the rest of the season minimum.

I think Mitchell will have a big influence going forward. He’s a Pif appointment and their man. Will only be one winner.

Sadly. However time yet for it to turn around. But will need a big increase in performances and a lengthy run of form and results.

Just another Mike Ashley in Ineos branding.
Delighted for that snake Ashworth, career imploding.

I think he’s away this summer regardless

08.12.2024 09:32 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Agree with that. It’s not a this season issue, been going on now for months.

I actually feel that’s Howes weakness, far too loyal. Some players need told they are being transferred or left out. I mentioned Howes forever 433 earlier. So many second half’s we’ve looked worse as whatever plan b is - it doesn’t work (I don’t feel there is a plan b btw)

I’ve been saying for a while now it’ll take something like that. I reckon Bruno and Isak will be away this summer regardless. Mitchell knows what he’s doing I feel. The money will be spent properly. Fact we signed Barnes for me was a signal we didn’t really know what we were doing.

I’m not so sure. I’m split to be honest. Performances have been allover the place for a while. His rigid 433 doesn’t help either. Some players need to take a good look at themselves though.

08.12.2024 09:25 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Agree but these players can’t keep raising and dropping their levels. You’re right - we’ve just not done anywhere near enough as far as incoming. Seemingly can’t spend so won’t be a quick fix.

Seeing much more Howe out on here now. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but he can’t legislate for players making ridiculous school boy errors. That being said - the up and down performance levels are something he needs to fix asap. This isn’t a new thing. Was happening last season. #nufc

Well well, I’m shocked. #nufc

I don’t think we’ll see any arrivals in January unless we sell. Clearly noises coming from the club stating we can’t buy.

2 wins in 11 games.
10 points from a possible 33.

I'm sorry, that is absolutely rancid.

Looking more and more like Howes last season at Bournemouth. He ran out of ideas then and performances were dreadful. Shipping goals for fun. #nufc

Are we allowed to be critical on here yet!? Looks to me like Howe has serious problems. We are going backwards, and we cant hide behind psr for continued awful performances. The odd decent game is now rare, this has become the norm. Regardless of how today turns out something isn’t right. #nufc

Good performance against Liverpool doesn’t get you points against other teams. Second half has been nothing short of poor. Yet again. #nufc

Clueless across the pitch now. What a mess. πŸ™„ #nufc

We look clueless - yet again. Happening far too often.

07.12.2024 16:36 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

What has happened to us defensively!? That and constantly giving the ball away cheaply. #nufc

Let’s just see how this works out before the negativity begins!! #nufc

07.12.2024 14:11 β€” πŸ‘ 3    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

We just need to see that the Liverpool game wasn’t the unusual performance and that we can keep to that level or close.

Not having any chat about Tonali needing a rest after a match on Wednesday.

It’s Saturday, he had 10 months off.

He’s a professional footballer.

Urgh. That team. #nufc.
