et tu brute

Probably give Dubravka a 5 (to me it's his fault for the goal), Manquillo a 6 and Shelvey a 7 also (as I thought second half he didn't have anywhere near the same impact as the first). Otherwise I would generally agree with the rest.

Triggered, you mean amused

Got to be Ryder that, I remember against Brentford he give none of the defence less than 6 and most got a 7.

100%, you're talking shit. And I will bookmark this post for when/if it happens. Never going to happen.

Problem I think they will have is getting those quality players on permanent transfers, due to the position we will be in. Honestly think the loan market will be our most likely way of getting players in. I can also see a long transfer window as it will be a struggle attracting players of the quality required.

No I don't because it will cost them millions in legal fees for a start. Never going to happen otherwise the takeover wouldn't have happened in the first place. There is only one person being naive here and it's certainly not me.

No you are or very stupid, one of the two. There is not a cats hell chance in a million that this would be allowed legally in a court of law. Even if they did try (they won't), it would get thrown out immediately.

Agree this is a better indicator

Bollocks is it man

They have not put any rules in yet on the sponsorship and Newcastle are on that group also. If any rules come in that are against competition and restraint of trade, then I'm quite certain Newcastle will take them straight to the courts and win. You can't accept a takeover and then try and stop the club under these owners being allowed back in because of relegation. That boat has long sailed.

Add Chealsea away to that also.

And how are they going to do that then?

He did make an error mind, if he was not confortable with catching the ball then he should have pushed it behind, not pushing it straight to a Norwich player.

Plus we had taken off our only other real attacking threat also.

He was shocking when he came on mind.

I honestly think Leeds had too much to go down anyway. The fact is that from 17th position, we are now three games off safety if you include the goal difference. I can't see anything other than that gap widening also before January.

Push it behind then as I said before not straight to their player. That was a bad error whichever way you look at it.

Schar give him a close run with that chance

Or pushing it behind at least, not pushing it straight to their player.

That was before we played 2 newly promoted teams at home and getting only two points. 7 points from 14 games, 0 wins, 30 goals conceded and no sign whatsoever that this defence is going to stop conceding goals.

He picked a central defender who can't defend at this level and makes school boy level mistakes on a consistent basis. You choose your best defenders first, when you're conceding so many goals on a regular basis, not whether they have a left foot or not

Unfortunately though, those individual errors (usually 3 or 4 a game) are happening every single game. Doesn't matter who comes in the errors keep churning out.

10 - you have an entire defence no matter who plays, will then game after game make at least 3 or 4 basic fucking mistakes. Howe picking fucking Clark also is doing nothing to suggest my prediction that he will be an absolute disaster. 2 points at home against newly promoted teams is nailed on relegation

No chance
