  1. Can we make these two club ambassadors? Lol Tbf they do it for free at the moment.
  2. Gutted. That's likely championship for another season confirmed. Not the worst thing for our build. We should be able to have an idea of who can cut it at this level and certainly who won't another level up. Hopefully a decent spend in the summer leveling up again so we can look to dominate with a squad that can stay in the WSL if it goes up.
  3. Wishing all the best to everyone for tomorrow. Win or lose cup finals are a rarity. We got to take stock and soak it in. Players will be up for it, hopefully not red card up for it or too Gung ho we get obliterated on the break!! Gets some sleep for those that can!
  4. BDB England call, PL results going our way, Mackems losing... ..the universe is apologizing again in advance isn't it.
  5. https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/2027019/newcastle-s-new-stadium-unlike-anything-premier-league-unique-feature Express have a different idea on what it's modeled on. Maybe some Chinese whispers with Allegiant Stadium and Allianz lol. Or more likely guess work. The bubble wrap stadium at Bayern is absolutely more in keeping and consistent with what we heard previously from reports. "The futuristic arena is set to feature a bubble-wrap-like facade reminiscent of Bayern Munich's iconic Allianz Arena and will boast a parkland entrance akin to the famous Wembley Way."

    This would almost make my weekend if true.. ...that and I think something else big could possibly happen this weekend.
  7. Yeah. Best just to wait until things are official before we get in a tizzy. 65k seems low would have at least expected 5-10k more. It's fine if it's built to be expanded as needed though.
  8. Surely they will just be more pissed off and focused on getting the double now rather than blase with a chance of the treble? Extra minutes in the legs and injuries hopefully play in our favour though.
  9. Fuck me. If our stadium plans come out looking like that I'd be fuming. Had to check three times it wasn't a parody. Good God. 100k capacity is not to be sniffed at though.
  10. Pretty much all our league games are winnable. If we can keep people fit and build some momentum we still have a great shout at top 5.
  11. Big result. Could be massive. Subs looked more knackered than those that did 90! No injuries hopefully and no one sent off. Still given ourselves a chance at Europe. Bigger nights to come but hopefully this weekend is our biggest and best performance of the season so far.
  12. Thoughts to him and his family. Horrible. Hope he is ok.
  13. The club weighing up gambling weakening the squad for long term PSR pain. Making the cup final.... then the last week happens Fans
  14. I thought Eales wasn't at the club anymore and on leave? Is he still working hence the quotes just released on everything? Or has he returned and I missed it?

    Joe Willock

    He has turned into older Shola minus any finishing quality.
  16. Some of our leaders couldn't even up their game when we needed it against Brighton today. The malaise at times was wild. We have a hugely damaging mental block now and public perception that we are inconsistent bottlers that only turn up when bothered. Hope Eddie can use that as motivation and the players react. We have had some great performances against teams like Arsenal. It's in us but too often we roll over. Gordon is a big loss but losing Isak would be a game ender.

    Anthony Gordon

    Willock has to remember how to play football sometime right? Maybe it's worth a roll of the dice that it finally clicks. It's been tough for him, he need games to find form, doesn't justify starting when he comes on and loses more confidence. He does offer pace but the end product hasn't been there like Barnes over the past year.
  18. Not good enough to be number one, but also not any worse than Pope.

    Anthony Gordon

    Big chance for Barnes this. He hasn't taken the chances so far. I'd go as stupidly reactive enough to say this is his last chance. Could see us shifting Barnes in the summer, unless Gordon is off. He has to show more to his game. Glad he will get a dress rehearsal before Liverpool.
  20. Absolute sickener.. Said it in the Liverpool thread. We can't be surprised, ultimately in comparison to the top 4 we are shit but with potential. It's an antagonizing wait seeing how close we are to breaking through but being held back from getting the players we need to push on. Players like Schar, Murphy and others aren't top 6 players. We know Eddie will bring the best out of them but we can't be surprised when they give the ball away in dangerous areas and show their limitations as much as we can't go crazy with expectations when they are playing well above their station. We are where we are. We don't have a squad to compete on more than one potential front with consistency. It's getting better but it's an incredibly slow process. It's going to be ripped apart in the summer, even more so if we don't make Europe which is definitely possible. We could also sneak into CL it's hard to predict when we are so inconsistent.
