SUPERTOON

I assume it’s because he doesn’t have a relegation on his CV and a better record all round

Where is it being reported

If and when it’s confirmed be interesting to see the length of contract

Still no news on Jones taking the pre match press conference so I assume still a chance Howe will be in

Why wouldn’t it be ?

More excited if it’s true he’s bringing his own coaching team with him

All whilst spending more than Liverpool in the process

Who do you genuinely think it will be when he does get the sack ?

My main issue with this appointment is that where it the summer and he was given this squad I think he is more than capable of keeping it up. However I’m not sure that he’s the man to come in now in our current position and first claw back the 6 points and then keep us up from there.

The article worded it as if it was a key part of the job to be able to work with Ritchie

I’d be surprised if Howe at full control of transfers (or any manager we bring in).

The caulkin article says he impressed them with his idea of who to target in the January window and how he could work with Jones. And they where also impressed because he has worked with Wilson, Ritchie and Fraser before.

And they didn’t really take 24 hours to get conte

After the last 24 hours and initial disappointment, if it’s Howe they want then let’s go and get him make sure he is in for Monday and hope he can perform a miracle with these lot.

Be easier to get behind him if he’s bringing in coaches with him and the Steve’s get binned we need a complete we set of voices. Unfortunately Jones is already staying.

I meant hope in terms of this season, as in staying up. As I’ve said previously I will get right behind Howe (if it is him) and hope he can pull it off. Still don’t think fans should be criticised for not being happy with his appointment.

I think most are just underwhelmed that after 3/4 weeks it seems it will be Eddie Howe. It’s got nothing to do with expecting big names at all just someone who can give us a bit of hope tbh.

That says more about the last 15 years than it does about Howe

Fair point I just think we are that poor the extra week could prove key considering the games coming up and the need to get at least 7 points from them

No not for Saturday I agree but it’s imperative they are in for the 2 week break IMO

Since they haven’t confirmed Jones is doing the pre match presser yet I assume they think they can get Howe or another in by Saturday.

Well if he needs convincing then he’s not for us

If it’s Howe they want there is zero excuse to not have this done by tomorrow

Howe was in Liverpool today maybe Everton want him as well
