It’s not all on Eddie but a lot of it is! Eddie’s stubbornness, dedication to his formation, favouritism, reactive predictable like for like substitutions, not addressing the gaping hole in midfield, the players bought in the summer and how they have been managed/miss managed all point to the end for me. It’s very sad to see the wheels come off but this has been a slow undoing. He gave us some outstanding games of football and a cup and for that he should be cherished forever. I fear giving him more money to spend on more of the same will do further damage to us long term, and we could be very septic come the Autumn/Christmas. Will be interesting seeing what the owners do. I don’t think Eddie will give up until it’s too late and the decision is taken away from him. I was so looking forward to a switch in formation at least try it, what is there to lose but no, doubling down. I think the Bournemouth poster early doors had it summed up quite well as to what we are getting with Eddie, and the negatives could potentially undo it all. And here we are 😔
We aren’t United atm. This shit time will pass and Newcastle will go on as this is just another chapter and not the end of the story. HTL.
