  1. Every other post though?
  2. Massive overreaction. There’s a small group - max a handful - who have gone down the “True” Geordie (aka The Tarmaccer) route of scorched earth with Eddie and being disrespectful. Many of us are posting rational arguments pro/against him staying. Don’t conflate this to the whole debate.
  3. Not the fucking Yanks please, anything but them. I’d rather have the North Korean’s or Iranian’s than these sport colonising capitalist shitbags.
  4. Let’s give him another 40 games on top of that to be sure. A round 100 sounds fair. The Isak sale fucked our planning to be sure, but it’s going to end up being like Liverpool’s Coutinho money excuse, used into perpetuity.
  5. Predictions for late July. Romano: Anthony Gordon only wants Bayern Munich Fuck you Fettucine Fondler.
  6. Suggests tapping up and Claire Balding having a similar meltdown to what he did at Everton to force a move on the cheap. Isak set the template, now the others can use his playbook.
  7. But with Plan Bs, it’s always difficult. If you have too many Plan Bs it means your Plan A is flawed and your players are thinking what’s next rather than trying to deliver Plan A to the best of their ability. The man himself. Plan A ride or die.
  8. Villa also signed players on loan in January to finish strongly. As ever we didn’t.
  9. Only way he goes is: a) He walks. b) Slopkinson gets narked at £25m-£30m being pissed away in PL placing revenue due to us tanking the end of the season.
  10. That’s where I am. Yesterday was never going to be the test as even at the peak of our powers under Eddie we’ve had a PL draw and a LC win but nowt else down there. However these next four are where the crunch point happens as Brighton, Forest, West Ham and Fulham are all winnable games in their own right based off recent history.

  12. I’m on the fence but some of the incredulity from some of his most staunch defenders towards people questioning 9 defeats in 12 would make a North Korean blush for ostriching.

    Nick Pope

    He’s toast. Seems a recurring theme - great servant for the club but football has moved on since 2022/23.
  14. Smash the Patriarchy.
  15. But eras end. And what he’s getting out of the players he has on the pitch, who are part of the £700m he’s had to spend, isn’t good enough. The players he bought last summer are a symptom of the changing situation - he’s not shopping in Harrods, but he’s still buying premium labels in Waitrose, let’s not kid ourselves that he’s plucking players from the lower leagues. Football moves on and unfortunately he seems stuck trying the same formula. He admitted himself he burned out at Bournemouth ahead of their relegation season. After pneumonia and a summer where he had to wear multiple hats, it looks like history repeating itself. Again - last summer was a disgrace and he should never have had to do that but I just feel the mojo had gone.
  16. Fared better than I thought we would. Story of the season in that a competent striker would have had us 10-15 points better off. Instead we’re six points ahead of West Ham and Forest and have to play them both. The fact Eddie and our group of merry men have slept walked us to the fringes of the relegation battle is shocking based on the resources we have and momentum we had. We won’t go down but 16th/17th isn’t a great selling point to potential summer signings. Plus those 10-12 places down on last season are £20-30m worth of revenue removed from this season’s accounts. He deserves the last four games to show something but if it’s more Bournemouth, mackems, Everton and Brentford-esque tripe performances and outcomes then, for me, it’s time for a change.

    Yoane Wissa

    Offer him and Elanga as a BOGOF to FC Glue Factory.
  18. Too stubborn for his own good. Keep hammering the same tactical square peg into that round hole.
  19. Got it on 5Live, sounds pure trash.
  20. Crumble hopefully in Spuds’ case.
