The home fans aren't happy about these fifteen training exercises. Do you think the board told them to show their little banners again in three weeks?

You've had 15 training exercises in the league this season, don't you think that is too many?

I've been pretty down on Osula right the way through our purple patch of wins?

Hall showed potential when he got time on the pitch.

I think we do this in every thread after a loss. People vent genuine frustrations with players and then those players get defended. Everything you say is true, but the issues are definitely there and need addressing.

Our most dangerous player forced out of position again.

We've spent a wedge of what little money we have on someone so raw that he literally cannot be trusted to play meaningful minutes. And there hasn't been any sign in his play when he has been allowed on when games are secure that he is making the progress needed to become a success. I don't rate him, and clearly he isn't rated by the coaching team to be worthy of being on the pitch.

Terrible signing. We all figured it would be.

You would hope it is this.

His general play has been off the boil for weeks if not months.

I don't want to see him on the pitch in a Newcastle shirt again. The same that I wouldn't want to see Shearer or the corpse of Jackie Milburn on the pitch for us again. All three of them are finished.

I think people will just say something like... I guess. This isn't the end of the world. We are still in a great place to qualify for the Champions League. But there are long standing issues to address in the summer.

I think the second point has more precedence. We have to slog it with the same 11 every week and they have 15/16 first team level players to rotate around. They have difference makers on the bench. We have WIlson.

They came out with a plan to wind Bruno up and it was pulled off with ease. Bruno cannot handle being targeted.

He wouldn't have made a jot of difference. We are playing a side who have our number at their home pitch. And a side who have considerably more strength in depth compared to our Longstaff, Wilson, Krafth levels on the bench.
