I’m in the middle too. I want it to be Eddie more than anything who takes the club forward but can’t shake the nagging doubts there is a ceiling for him we’re butting up against. What I can’t figure out for certain either way is whether it’s PSR to blame or his own personality / capability. The unfolding car crash of nearly £200m worth of last summer’s spending doesn’t help things. PIF’s failure to address the wider project and infrastructure growth is an annoying elephant in the room too as without it, we’re hamstrung in reaching the next level.

For a second I read that as Adolf Hitler. Too much Man in the High Castle on Netflix.

That’s truly horrible.

He’s away at Dr Congo duty for the next couple of weeks, so any chance to work with him will be heavily offset by being away in Mexico for a chunk of that for their playoff in Guadalajara.

I agree. The Brentford game vs Igor Thaigo and Outarra showed him up badly. Since then he’s done really well against Haaland as an exception but too often him and Tripper create a sense of fear of being done behind that leads to the drop off and passivity we’ve experienced and the backs to the wall defending we’re no good at. Heartbreaking given all he’s done but he’s now a cup player for me. I don’t think Botman is the answer either we should be looking for someone more rapid to have covering skills.

That’s Villa and Wolves then we played back 4s. Leeds and Bournemouth back 5s. We’ve been shit and he’s been a major culprit this season but that’s an incorrect stat.

No - not sticking up for Burn who is a hero but also now a liability - he’s been CB in four league clean sheets. Given how shit we’ve been at the back, you could level that stat at most of the back 4 players.

The Burn one isn’t correct. We kept clean sheets vs: Villa Leeds Wolves Bournemouth all with him in the team.

That’s if he doesn’t come back from summer looking more like Sherman Klump than Buddy Love.

Nope. There’s £10m-£15m to be got similar to Longstaff. Safe to say we need all the funds we need to rebuild a squad that is staler than a month old loaf of bread.

Doesn’t feel any better the morning after. There’s a lot of players and back room staff need to take a good look at themselves after that and what their levels were to their claimed “value”. However it’ll be off on holiday or off to handshakes and cosy media interviews on international break. Zero accountability.

If me uncle had tits etc. However even not losing half those points would have us in CL contention again.

Great shout. Would be delighted as it’s back to picking up the Tino, Hall type players.

Eddie Howe’s Mentality Midgets this season.

No team in the Premier League this season has let slip more points from winning positions than Newcastle's 22.

And the crowd go mild. Bit different to last year.

If it is true, social media team or not, you’re toast pal. The density of players in this era.

Everyone except Hall.

Take the money. If your heart isn’t in it, you’re not part of the journey.

When he ran it straight into touch. He’s like letting your 5 year old lose on FIFA and watching him run players in random directions.

Funny how we all see this but Eddie doesn’t. Lots around me at the City game were screaming for him to stop with the stupid fucking experiment but he isn’t letting it go.

Wow, really going to make up for it. A new Chief Fan Fleecing Officer is exactly what I need to hear to shift the post Derby funk.

Too busy playing golf with Disaster Donald and spunking money on the gargantuan shitfest that is PIF’s pitch and putt competition to be arsed about what is going on in NE1.

Full on Mussolini’d.

He’s also injured. He got caught wincing at least twice during the game and holding his ribs when the camera panned onto him.
