  1. Aye lets play defensively when out weakest part of the team is defense! Is that you Bruce?
  2. I was a 10 before today, Im now a 9 - turn around in 2 weeks with Eddie has been immense. Keep it going and the wins will come. I think we will lose to Arsenal and then beat Norwich and Burnley. Anything else till 1st Jan will be a bonus but I think each week the boys will get more comfortable with how Eddie wants to play!
  3. If we get relegated, we get relegated but too many twists and turns to come to predict anything at the moment. Today was miles away from BruceBall 52% possession 23 Shots 9 on target. When Bruce was here, we have 20-30% possession and we were lucky to get a shot at goal, never mind if it was on target or not. Continue to build and if we go down due to the start Bruce handed us, at least we can go to a game and expect some excitement!
  4. Until the 3rd minute anyway, when Brentford midfielder strolls past Shelvey and he doesn't track back. Then he will get both barrels!
  5. Basically, any report now about the owners of NUFC all have digs at them, not even subtle. They are waiting, with glee for any screw ups or failures. The BBC report goes on about Sporting Director needs to be in place etc. Two points on this: Is that the model the owners are going to go with ( I think it probably is but they shouldn't just assume,then this leads to 2nd point) NUFC under Ashley, had no Sporting Director, didn't have a CEO, didn't have a board, it just had Charnley. Not one article was raised by BBC on how this was unheard of in the modern game. To be honest, my siege mentality is building by the day. I ignore the transfer rumours, ignore the media, dont look at Twitter, I just come on here and then read things on NUFC website. Everything else, is all agenda driven, towards a negative. For me - the owners have made mistakes but who wouldn't in their position. As I see it, in one month, they have got rid of Ashley and the Steve's and brought in a new manager and backroom staff. The fan base seems united behind the new manager and people are looking forward to games now. That is big progress in 1 month. Lets hope in another months time, they have the Sporting Director and CEO in place, if that is the model they are going for! HWTL
  6. Gerrard is a squeaky prick......pass it on!
  7. standing in the scoreboard section, it was the height of good manners, for the person behind you, to tap you on the shoulder to let you know he was about to take a piss!
  8. I can't but I can use the translate tweet link Follow that link and watch the video. I did and it has just sunk in how much our new owners are worth and also the vision they have! We are in for one hell of a ride!
  9. Urgent: An informed source confirms, "Al Qiddiya is the next sponsor of the Newcastle shirt." link https://qiddiya.com
  10. This thread, I think I will ignore till nearer January. It really should be renamed Media Dont Know Shit thread!
  11. Agreed. I see fans on twitter getting into lather and 20 -30 tweet threads back and forward. For me I just dont reply to any tweets from other fans/MSM/etc. It is absolutely futile and is what they want. Im following Howe 'Its purely a football decision and that is all Im focused on'
  12. Fair enough. I ain't going to lose any sleep over what may or may not happen on Twitter. Twitter is a cess pit.
  13. quite ironic that its the journos now getting a shit barrage considering NUFC fans have had to put up with for 14 years.
  14. Just play it with a straight bat like Howe did and they will soon get the message and stop asking
  15. Can they leave after they have built us a new state of the art training facility and extended the Gallowgate end
  16. Ill wait till its confirmed before agreeing but lets hope he signs this week.
  17. Dont eat all the bacon you bastard! Leave some for the real coach!

    I just want a clean broom - so Jones, the Steves and Charnley gone. I can tolerate them for transitions but they need to be gone. Get rid of anything that was around the Bruce and Ashley era!
  20. No its not. We should have a DOF and CEO in by then. You nor I have any idea what these owners will be like at signing players!
  21. I understand that but Aston Villa have just lost 5 in a row - would anyone have predicted that a month ago. Brentford have lost 2 in a row and doubt may creep in (Norwich winning was a good result for us, keeps the bottom group together). Also, lets say Newcastle win the next 3 out of 4, the pressure on the other teams cranks up massively. We are in trouble agreed but the media are happy to paint it like its foregone conclusion and its no where near.......yet!
  22. I know everyone tries to look ahead and look at all the permutations etc but the only fact at the moment is that NUFC are only 5 points from safety. And lets be honest, performances can only improve as the dog shit been served up so far has been the worst we have ever seen. Brentford and Aston Villa are starting to tumble, and Watford may start to struggle also. Im pretty confident at the moment with Howe hopefully signing and as someone said before - ace we have is Jan window were this time, we are guaranteed to spend!
  23. Just get it announced and then 2 weeks of coaching and then go at Brentford. They are starting to fall down the table, with the crowd, we can win this. Just go all out attack and the crowd will love you for it!
