Woltemade and Thiaw and Ramsey are all technical players and not runners.

Nobody performs 100%, 100% of the time. Nothing at all does in fact. Our players, or around about half of them, weren't running at 100% of their capability until Howe arrived. They've been running at 100% since (for the vast majority) and for the last 3 to 4 months folk are saying that enough is enough for Howe without him really having much chance to reinvigorate things. I don't think that's right or fair personally. Howe has exceeded expectations for all but this season and even in this "disappointing" season we've reached the semi final of the league cup, the last 16 of the champions league and knocked out by potential treble winners in Manchester City in the FA Cup. Good heavens. Actually laughing in disbelief here.

Today was evidence that the team are still working for Eddie to my mind. Decent performance, bit of a lack of quality up top but nothing to complain about. Brunos positive energy is coming back at a pivotal time for Wor Eddie. Seems to me people have their hearts and heads set on Eddie's removal at this stage and I have neither. Rightly or wrongly. Only wins turn this around and we absolutely must get 1 or 2 before the end of the season or I fear his time will be up. I agree with @Kid Icarus re. The overall vibe or mood though - it frustrates me that we aren't just backing him to overcome this as he has done before.

Early doors (of course) but not seeing much change in Spurs so far like.

Worth a tenner at EVS.

If the crowd cannot be fucked why should the players I'd argue. It's our club not theirs. You're absolutely right, we cannot always be the 12th man but social media in particular is an absolute cesspit of negativity and a desperate desire to be the most controversial and arsey. It's absolutely minging. Things aren't good all the time. Fuck me, Newcastle of all clubs should know that after Ashley. You can be annoyed by current ongoings but at the moment it's like everyone is absolutely desperate to add the nails to our own coffin. There are some absolutely fair and right criticisms of everyone at the club this season and there are some absolutely nonsense, click bait takes as well.

Had the pleasure of hosting an event with him and another of the WFs lads at the RVI with some terminally ill kids and Kieran was absolutely excellent with all of them. Really went up a level in my estimation of him which was already sky high. Without a doubt the best RB I've seen in my lifetime at Newcastle United and one of the best captains/leaders too. For all his alleged shagging about, which is his own business and his own (possible) downfall, on a professional level and human level with those kids he has been nothing but absolutely top drawer. He had time for every single one of them and wasn't allowing himself to be rushed. Class. Would have meant so much to those kids.

It's starting to get really fucking irritating watch our own fans slate our own players when it's the same lads who won us the only ever cup we've seen in our lifetime like. We should be closing ranks and rallying behind them not treating them like absolute cunts. Life isn't all rainbows and butterflies. We look absolutely wrecked, shot of confidence and totally demoralised. We need to galvanise some fighting spirit and show why next season there will be a resurgence.

Did Anderson celebrate appropriately?

One of their best seasons in decades and they're bewwing after one bad performance

I was truly astonished when I watched yous against us like. "Sideways and backwards everywhere we go" was something I was told about but I just thought "Naaa, it cannot be that bad like." Then when I watched I was just like..."this is horrific." Making Tudor manager wasn't the right move and another sign of mismanagement and for me the players all have an air of complacency about them. I know you've had a bad season of injuries but I just struggle to pin it on bad luck personally. I think you're players aren't up for the fight and the chemistry isn't right. I think some of them think they've made it cause they're living the London life and in the big league, at a big club. It's that and some poor on field decision making that is seemingly endemic(?) from bad management above that has developed into a perfect storm for Spurs. Gonna be an interesting few games, as I think De Zerbi will be a decent appointment but it depends how volatile he/it all becomes.

How do you feel your chances are of staying up? My boss is a Spurs fan or something was before he was dismissed and our site lead also support Spurs and they basically think it's a done deal and have thought so for a while.

Bali was a mint shout. beach was far better there than anywhere else we've seen thus far.

No, but people do want to justify their feelings seemingly by which ever means possible. The rest - I haven't disputed.

I actually think he'd do excellent there, at least for one season. How he performs beyond that depends on whether he then believes he's Lionel Messi as a result. Which is likely.
