Was she ill for his entire time there? I'm not doubting it played a part but I just wonder whether he's destined to just want to be on the south coast.

Why was Howe so rubbish at Burnley by the way? They had Ings and Rodriguez banging them in but still did fuck all in the championship.

Depends who it is like. Pardew or Bruce, nah. Any other manager who comes in and keeps Ritchie at left back and Darlow in goal, nah.

Just march to Everton with £12m. Makes sense to every single party.

3 or 4-0 with Jones' 11 and tactics. Fuck knows why he can't think to play our best players in their best position.

Things change, as we see. Nobody is bigger than the club. He'll be gone eventually.

Is "Bring back Ashley" really your opinion? Then yes, ban please.

Usually I hate it when people call for bans on here

I genuinely don't think Howe will be our manager, regardless of what "reports" say. It's gonna be someone left-field now.

Charnley still being here is the only real red flag for me. I'm pretty certain I could do a better job than him. Fuck him off, pronto.

Why are people so certain it's going to be Howe by the way? I've missed that part of the story. I doubt he'd even want it.

If the stories hadn't come out yesterday about Emery this wouldn't be as big an issue though.

Suppose we just need to trust that we'll have the right footballing people in place to steer us back to the Premiership once we've been relegated. Just sets us back 2 or 3 years in the grand scheme of things. I'll still be happier in the championship without Ashley than in the Premiership with him.

I'd rather take a chance on Lampard than Eddie Howe, who I feel is completely setup to fail at Newcastle. We're probably going to get the story that we're sticking with Jones until summer now.

Dunno mate, he looks pretty hard

Still plenty of conversations to be had, don’t worry

Think he's taking the piss out of someone?

Almiron provides much more from a defensive point of view than ASM. I kinda get where you're going with that though.

This thread is worse than the takeover thread was "It's obvious [insert name] has turned us down" "We're already relegated now" "It's gonna be Tim Sherwood isn't it" "The new owners are getting this massively wrong" Fuck off.

He was set piece coach for England. All corners and free kicks were absolutely shite

Probably, but he gives the defence more confidence. Darlow is one of our biggest issues. Fucking awful keeper.

Disagree. New manager plays the best keeper.

His team sheets are too

See this was my thought too. However I've now decided that the club is bigger than any one man. He's the best man for the job right now. If it goes to shit in the future so be it.
