Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I do think we'll stay up with relative ease, those points we picked up before Man Utd have already made the difference, in reality a few wins and a few draws in the last 17 games will be enough to stay up. Job done for Charners and Ashley. think you're being optimistic there. we're in freefall and a few of the teams below us have picked up form. 11 losses 3 wins and 3 draws would be an absolutely abysmal end to the season but probably enough, only reason I think we'll manage it, plus we'll have ASM and Lascelles back at some point. It will be next season where the shit hits the fan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Ashley won't be happy that we haven't been knocked out today. But, supporters are angry so that might temper him a bit. Bruce is just way out of his depth here. Won't be long until the happy clappers and free-ticket lot begin to turn on him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tribesman Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 We'll freefall from here and narrowly stay up, keeping Bruce here for a miserable Derby-style relegation next season. And Ashley will point at Joelinton as a reason why spending money isn't always the answer The more I see from us the less confidant I would say Newcastle are staying up. The team just looks a mess. Remember when everyone knew their roles under Benitez with Bruce it just looks very confused. We have got worse as the season has progressed not better. There is no goals in the team, defence has lost its organisation, midfield is shite and you get the feeling we have used up a lot of luck in the first half of the season. Wolves, Chelsea, Everton, Norwich and Arsenal up next. If you are clinging on against one of the worst teams in League 1 then you have big problems.

huss9 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 "We’re still in the Cup. The idea was to come here and still be in the draw afterwards. We’ll address it when we get to it. It’s the FA Cup, we’ll take it seriously." couldnt make it up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timinperu Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Disgraceful how he walked away from the fans at the end of the game. Truly woeful performance, with no input from a premier league manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha ha yeah. I thought you were being serious then. I think those tossing him off are slowly but surely coming to realise the truth, or have left the forum.

toontownman Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 How long til the "hardcores" turn? Another couple of beatings in the league then rochdale beating us at home. Walking away from the fans today is good foreshadowing for his heel turn and blaming them for negativity in a couple of weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colos Short and Curlies Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I assume he still has family in the area? You'd like to think that they'd be left alone but you know some mong will be having a go at them. Wonder if Bruce will simply walk away if that happens Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players just do what comes instinctively, it's not like there was any set plan to dominate possession. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
astraguy Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 #nufc looking at signing a forward this month. "We've had a couple of knock backs already so we'll keep working away," Steve Bruce said. "It's very, very difficult, especially at that end of the pitch to get something and to get something that will make you better is difficult." Not surprised Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
