In your opinion he undoubtedly deserves more time, in other people’s opinion he doesn’t. History will decide whether Howe staying / leaving NUFC before the start of season 26/27 was a success / failure. No-one can accurately predict it, no matter how committed they are to their opinion.

If we end up with a manager who takes us beyond where Howe’s been able to take us then I hope people realise how it was time for a change.

When have I said anything like that ? Eddie Howe is a Bournemouth legend. He transformed the club beyond their wildest dreams. But he was also in charge when they got relegated and they’ve achieved more in the PL post-Howe than they did during his time there. Something to consider for all of the people who think an NUFC without Howe is doomed to fail. Maybe it will fail, maybe it wont. But using Bournemouth as an example, it actually got better post-Howe. And that takes nothing away from what he achieved in his time there, which was magnificent.

Bournemouth have done better in the Premier League since Eddie Howe left Bournemouth

Got no idea what you mean. UncleBingo called GramGram a silly cunt and said they should pipe down because they only signed up a few weeks ago. And I thought that was out of order. My response had nowt to do with GramGrams opinion. I was pointing out that just because someone is new to N-O doesn’t mean their opinion is irrelevant.

Agree with all of that entirely. The grass is sometimes greener is undeniable. And that’s what I was saying to someone who said the grass isn’t always greener. Then they started spaffing on about NUFC’s appointments in the last 50 years and getting all ageist and calling a poster a silly cunt.

It’s based on history. 25 years ago someone who was a successful speller was replaced by someone who made a typo and it turned out they knew nothing about football management appointments. Can’t argue with history. It happened then so it’ll definitely happen again.

He’d never got Bournemouth relegated until he got them relegated.

Agree with who ? If you’re on about UncleBingo I think he’s talking absolute shite. And he called me “kidda” when I’m nearly 50. “22 years ago we appointed Souness after Robson so therefore if we replace Eddie it’s probably doomed to fail because of history” is possibly one of the most ludicrous opinions I’ve heard in my life.

What’s an interent ?

I’m unsure. Can see both the potential upsides and the downsides of either replacing him or keeping him. I’ve been weighing up the options for weeks now and I think it’s a very tricky call. Am glad I’m not the one who has to make it. Why ?

The so called silly cunt might be an 80 year old and has never missed an NUFC game for 65 year, but has just found this forum. What next, lasses can’t have opinions on football ?

Whats that got to do with anything. Our current owners have made 1 x manager appointment and got it spot on.

NUFC, under the current owners, have made one management appointment and got it spot on. Or do you think that management appointments at NUFC are preordained by some form of mythical force that can transcend the decision making powers of whoever owns the club at that time ?

What’s your age got to do with anything? Other than making you look condescending for calling a bloke who’s almost 50 “kidda”. Sometimes the grass is greener. That’s a fact.

I’m not sure what your point is. You’ve said for weeks that Eddie can turn it round because he’s turned it round before. Yet we keep putting in shit performances and getting beat. Is your viewpoint now that he’ll turn it around by signing / selling players during the summer transfer window ?

Quick clarification needed: Are we in the Champo ?

And he hasn’t. So your viewpoint of “he can turn it around because he’s turned it around before” gets consistently diluted with each defeat and shit performance.

Sometimes the grass is greener

You’ve been saying he’ll turn it around for weeks and he’s not turned it around

Second option sounds like a nonces wet dream

We need a goal to stand any chance of getting anything out of this

Perception, yeah ?
