How bad would it be for them if they spent another season or two in this league? Financially I mean, I’d imagine their budget is on a par with the other sides in that league now. Could they exist in that state without the threat of winding up?

A joy listening to Poch talking about his philosophy about coaching football. He knows what he’s talking about for sure. His English seems to have improved too..
-
Starting to look confident when it possession of the ball. Probably over confident when shooting on his left peg though. Really happy to see him get going here

It’ll take a few more games to get the Shelvey PTSD out of his system. Think we’ll start seeing a different player if he gets to form a partnership with Longstaff

So Roy, how would you sum up this half? “Pretty boring.. yeah, boring”

Most naive post of the year right here. I agree. He’s right about social media though. I mean, look at True Geordie, remember all those passionate ranting videos about how shit we were, or singling out players for not giving a fuck. Then just over the summer in his fancy new studio he says “I wouldn’t be the biggest supporter of nufc..” They are all self serving arseholes and I include the go to journalists in that too.

He’s just spouting what he thinks Mike Ashley will be happy to hear. He knows if a takeover ever happens he’ll be out the door quicker than Charnley so he’s buttering up the current powers that be. It will make things much harder for Ashley to act on if we’re in the bottom 3 come January/February

Aye! That's what I thought, price is appalling however, but design is decent. It’s an interesting proposition, would you pay double for a premium look replica jersey not to have a terrible sponsor on the shirt?

Never let the truth get in the way of a good story

He’s well traveled enough at this point for location to not be an excuse and that league is a load of toss. He should be doing better there. I’d love to have him back at the club because I think he gets it here but am also realistic enough to know he’s not been meeting his own standards there. If the league is a load of toss then I imagine he's inherited a load of toss too, especially with the restrictions in place. I don't think anyone has said he isn't meeting his own standards. I'd also imagine him being 'well travelled' is a lot easier in Western Europe than moving to China To suggest he should go to international management because of one poor move seems mad I’m not suggesting he go to that at all. I think he should target one of the big Italian teams as they do tend to change managers often. Pirlo at Juventus could end badly if they don’t win much but he’d also have to hope Ronaldo isn’t staying on their either. In fact, doing well in Serie A could be the perfect way to get his career back on track.

I’m sure he’ll get another decent job either in England or Europe but his stock has fallen probably in part to being associated with a Mike Ashley owned business and then also his China experience. The best thing he could do is take over a big Italian team if he gets the chance, maybe at the expense of Pirlo if things don’t work out by the summer?

Not sure how to read into this. A legal action by a fan group isn’t going to get too far but if it’s a piece in a jigsaw that’s approved by Mike Ashley’s own legal team then it could be significant. I’m still very much in the glass half empty side when it comes to this takeover. I’m not doubting they are trying to force it through but the cynical side of me is thinking, if things were going that well with De Marco why would they need the fans group to do this?
-
I think he’s made a place for himself now at this point. That ball in for Wilson was better than the goal, it’s exactly the service our wide players should be giving the forwards. Did well, a bright point in an otherwise dull game that could have been worse for us.

Having hernia surgery. Silver linings and all that I guess.

I find it funny when people are getting really annoyed about things that were obviously going to happen when he became manager like it’s some massive surprise. He’s a shit manager so the team will be shit. We knew this would happen ?♂️
