[Mike]

How many points off are we from Europe again?

 

[Incognito]

How many points off are we from Europe again?

 

We need snookers.

[Kaizero]

Back to 1.

[Optimistic Nut]

From 9 to a 7. Think survival's more likely now than it was 6 hours ago.

[Ronaldo]

down from an 8 to a 7

[Mag_in_NZ]

Down from an 8 to a 6.5, fuck me we will be fired up for the last eight games

 

Survival this season by winning at Leicester Villa but finding out later that a win wasn't essential. We will win the Championship Prem next year and be promoted to the league above the Championship Prem and I'll have to emigrate somewhere else....been there done that in another decade

9 stays 9,

 

its better to have shearer than houghton and calderwood, but our players are still shit.

[Ronaldo]

9 stays 9,

 

its better to have shearer than houghton and calderwood, but our players are still s***.

 

which Shearer knows better than Hughton

[Slugsy]

Staying at 8-9, too tough a run in, not even Houdini himself could get us out of this one? (praying I am wrong!!!)

[Guest Ebolarama]

Even though He has taken charge, there's no way we can save this season.

 

Winning the CCC isn't an unrealistic prospect, mind.

[toonpete1892]

I'll stick to with my views that I had this time yesterday morning (probably and an additional point or two) which is its going to go down to Villa with us needing at least something to stay up and them needing something for Europe.

 

I've still got some realistic hope!

[Optimistic Nut]

I think it will just get us the 3 home wins we need, plus the lift might even get us a sneaky win at Spurs or Villa.

[LoveItIfWeBeatU]

Changed from a 9 to an 8. No hope has changed to some hope.

 

Reasons: -

 

He can't do any worse than the current lot can he?

 

We may get the new manager bounce.

 

The fans will get behind him.

[Disco]

Stick with an 8

[Dave]

I'm down one.

 

We needed this lift, both on and off the pitch.

[AyeDubbleYoo]

I still think it's 50/50, although we will have a much better chance in our home games now the atmosphere will be right behind the team.

[Mr Logic]

I just changed my vote to '2'. If the latest news  (Shearer) lifts the players as much as it has with me then there's little to no chance of us going down.

 

Shearer as manager is an unknown quantity, but the air of apathy that had settled over the majority of us has been blown away by this news. If the club effect is the same then we're about to witness a transformation.

[Guest Darth Toon]

I've gone down from 9 to 8 as well - suddenly I see a small chink of light where there wasn't one before....

this is NUFC. where the light at the end of tunnel is usually an oncoming train.

[Stu]

Can't wait to see the matchday notes from Shearer as manager and even MO as Captain

[Mistle17]

I've gone doon to a '6'! 

[Neil]

Even though He has taken charge, there's no way we can save this season.

The County Cricket Championship?

 

Big changes are on the horizon for Newcastle.

[broonalegeordie]

10 > 6 !!

[Guest Phil K]

I have us on 43 - only because Big Al is here and I'm still not too sure the old safe point of 41 points will be enough this year.

If the snoring nightwatchman Hughton had still been in charge I would have had them on 32 points (3 more draws)

LOL - and so accurate !     O0

Double thumbs up from me at the whittiest comment so far today - even if you DID see it elsewhere, it's great.

[TRon]

Back from a 6 to a 3 for me. The Mackems have just been condemned to relegation
