We've also only played 3 of the 8 teams below us...

We are scarred. Rightly so. Ashley stripped thie club to the very bare minimum and the brink of capitulation. I just prefer to put my faith in folk who, in my opinion, have done enough to warrant my faith. I think for us to turn our back on Howe now, or any time prior to March would be, somewhat fickle. The club needs unity and positivity and we'll be alreet. At the moment we're hovering over a big red panic button (as 'supporters').

@HaydnNUFC Was something similar to this. Could change Hall for Tino or Tino right and no Trippier etc.

Think he's been outstanding in difficult circumstances since he arrived, until the summer personally and as you rightly say, this season we have regressed ever so slightly. Just looking at our last 4 games though and scoring our big opportunities we come out with at least 6 more points and it's a different situation. Prior to that, we had poor performances but points. Not seeing much recognition of Eddie making the right substitutes to influence those fixtures and now he is utilising certain individuals (not you) that folk were desperately calling for starts, and it isn't working it's all Eddie's fault? Interesting.

Fair. I'd be tempted to see Schar as DM tbh in a 3-5-2/5-3-2. I posted something a little while back which I think would work.

Likewise, I don't buy any of that tbh.

That's purely speculative for me like, sorry. He could literally change it at any point.

I was referring to when we were first kept up - we signed Burn, Trippier and Bruno IIRC that winter.

Agreed. Don't think you can account for the whole last calender year though. He is accountable for the start of this season to now for me, and that's only 9 games. Hence why in my eyes he absolutely deserves at the bare mininum the rest of the season. We are so close to clicking.

We can beat these twats at home. Go man for man on Palmer and we beat them.

Doesn't mean he won't.

Yeah, I guess that's what he needs to resolve then and if he doesn't then it will be the straw that breaks the camels back.

It's absolutely fair to critique Howe by the way and he does need to change things up and find a solution, but the way some folk go on, on here is nothing short of ridiculous. You'd think he hadn't dragged a championship side to almost the top ten and then into the CL and a cup final...

Isak does better with his chance today and/or Colwill gets a red and it's a different discussion again too by the way.

Get your point and the frustration, but I'm confident it will click for us at some point through some minor tinkering. We aren't far off. People talk about RWs and Strikers but perhaps a proper DM sorts us out significantly. I am keeping my faith in Howe as quite simply - he warrants it.

Has to sort this midfield / system out.

Burn having a nightmare because tactically we have allowed him to be dragged out of position by having a midfield that is being entirely bypassed defensively.

Man mark and set about that Palmer twat and get Fofana sent off early second half as he already should be. Howay Newcastle.

Let's kick start the season and drive away all this negativity boys. Matteo and Nicolòs Black and White Army!

Eddie Howe's Black and White Army 🖤🤍

The Shearer equaliser versus Inter is a mint one I always think.

Aye but about 2mins too fast

2 mates suggested I cash out. I cash out for just £10.61 from a £9 bet. Literally 1 minute later Villa score. Bastards.

And again. The Mackems singing stand up if you hate the mags too fucking muppets.

Howay Villa get a goal so I can cash oot.
