I have absolutely no doubt that Eddie Howe is trying. If he loses the next five/ten/fifteen games then trying won't be enough to placate the majority of the fanbase. You can extrapolate that to the ownership over a relevant time frame. That equates to a demand of on field progress/winning for me, regardless of what was written on some banner, however many years ago.

Clearly my research and education, or lack of is causing me to miss a wider point here then. Why don't you enlighten me? His risk to the clubs future wouldn't have been down to hurtling towards a third relegation under his tenure would it? Or the years of finishing lower mid table?

I guess that's where we differ in opinion then. The old adage of it being a results business is at the crux of it for me. Perhaps I'm just more cynical about your average fan.

Meh. We wanted rid of Ashley because he held the club back - which led to poor results on the field. We wanted PIF in because there's we'd progress under them. Is there actually much more to it?

I think every football fan of every club demands relative progress on the field. If that demand isn't met, then they call for whatever is hindering that progress to be rectified - whether that's the manager, ownership or players. At the heart of it all, it's a demand for on field progress, which basically equates to winning games. Scrape it all down and that's ultimately the top and bottom of it as far as I can see.

I mean for the most part yes. That's what we all want. Newcastle United to win games of football. That's the top and bottom of it. It's absolute nonsense to suggest otherwise imo. I always thought that banner was sanctimonious shite too. Nobody gives a flying fuck how Mike Ashley, PIF or any other cunt is running the club if we're consistently winning games. They certainly do if we aren't.

He's been sold up the river by PSR but his style doesn't suit a side that is this jaded. We need to be firing on all cylinders for his intense style and we look stale as fuck. You could argue that he's no longer getting the best out of Bruno, Gordon, Tonali and the likes. All big money signings. Could well be 13th by the end of the day. Away from is horrendous. Faltering more and more at home. Don't want him gone but it doesn't look good.

Premier League have got exactly as they wanted. Nobody challenge the 'big six'.

Fucking hell Schar

Please let this be the last we see of fucking Almiron in an NUFC shirt like, fuck me

Been crap this second half like. Can't keep ahold of the ball, creating absolutely fuck all.

Played well imo

We waste so many chances man

Barnes 😂

Tonali on the bench why?

Cannot believe he's blown there man. Did Isak take 5 seconds to line up that fee kick like? Incompetent cunts man.

Pathetic refereeing

Clive Tyldsley is absolutely fucking unbearable. Fucking wanker.

Utter fucking cunts

Joelinton costing us again like

Also, would it kill Jon Champion to give us an ounce of credit like

So, so obvious what is going to happen here

Disgrace that like.

Everton fail to beat Wolves tomorrow and that might be a death sentence for Dyches time there Look at this run of fixtures

Haaland is so ineffective in big games
