Seems all isn't rosy in the garden of Howe.

 

Let's hope it all gets sorted.

 

That was from yesterday that. Tindall was at the match and Hope said appointment expected shortly (or along those lines)

Would they really be sitting with Amanda yesterday if it wasn’t as good as done?

[Gaztoon]

The guy was literally sat with howe and staveley last night ?

It's also an article by Graeme Bailey.

 

He's a smoggy and even more negative towards us than Edwards!

Didnt the consortium originally say £200million over the next 2 seasons (so 4 transfer windows) on playing staff?

 

Wouldn't be surprised if they revise that upwards a bit for Jan 2022 but I’m not expecting much more than a £50m outlay. Whether that’s 2 decent players or 4 soon to be out of contract ones and some loans I don’t know but not expecting loads of top quality incomings yet. 

 

 

 

 

FFP is over a rolling 3 year period so to get the benefit of the Ashley barren years I think they'll spend a bit heavily than that if they can/if we need. I'm sure there's a bit of brinkmanship - there's going to be a PIF "tax" anyway so suspect they'll downplay any budgets.

Yep. I can see the downplaying budgets happening but I still think it won’t be anything crazy. 
 

Just hope they get some slack from the fans if they don’t sign a bunch of galacticos straight off the bat. I’m sure most of us here will be reasonable but I can’t speak for the twitter lot.

I do think if we are within touching distance of safety come January then they will spend big

OK, I'm not up with things of that nature, ie people with a blatant disregard and disrespect for the club.

 

In things about it there was the twitter picture on the BBC sports page of howe speaking to someone on his left.

Looking at the 90 min link it's the same guy.

 

So looks like you said deal done - just waiting for the official press release.

If people think the damage from the Ashley era can be changed overnight then they’re in for a massive let down.   If we are still bottom 3 by the transfer window we’ll find it hard to recruit. 
The fact the press are promoting a negative spin on everything associated with the club will not help us either. 
Got to be a slow build with potentially a year in the championship as part of that process. 
Howe is the right man for the job

I personally feel the club is as United as its ever been in the last 20 years.

 

We have a owners, fans and now a manager all pushing in the same direction and all with massive potential for growth.

 

Like I've said before, I don't want us to get relegated but a championship season under Eddie Howe and heavy financial backing will see us come back up and arguably in better shape.

 

That said, I'm actually really confident of staying up. The main reason is the ability of the other teams in the bottom half to slit each others throats.

 

We need to stay cool and focused. Just keep trying to pick up a point away from home. Hopefully a combination of a good atmosphere and a renewed sense of confidence in attack and we can put a few teams to the sword at home.

 

The quicker that first win comes, the quicker the tide will turn.

 

Provided we are in touching distance in January, PIF will throw everything at player recruitment. The lift of signing good players can make a big difference alone but if we get it right, we can start taking a few bigger scalps.

If we invest in January and we still get relegated it’s time for a new manager imo.

As @RSjust said wanting to spend big and doing it are 2 different things in our position, we mustn’t hang around in the first week we need 3 players ready to go , currently playing to go straight into the side.We cannot afford a late window on players not getting game time , if the new owners have the cash they need to be paying way over the odds for the right players to get us to 17th .

 

We need a top CH 

2 in MF , a midfielder who can tackle 

1 striker as heaven forbid Wilson gets injured and we are gone simple as that .

 

Find them and we have a chance , don’t then we are relying on these fuckers , Howe MIGHT be able to change things and I hope he does, but it’s hope rather than expecting..

[Hanshithispantz]

There's a lot a manager can do to get performances out of players like, I'm not too worried.

 

Wouldn't be amazed if Hayden starts charging about the midfield hastling the opposition etc. Disruptive players like Joelinton and Almiron with better direction will hopefuly give is more bite when we lose the ball. We have defenders who can pass the ball out we just haven't been playing them etc.

AS said they wanted to win the PL in 5-10 years , that will take a huge investment soon when we have the chance to do it , otherwise they will be pissing in the wind and we will be no better than an Everton in my opinion .

 

They have incredible wealth , IF we stay up it time to show it to even guarantee a top half finish we need £200million spent , to get beyond that will cost fortunes

I agree , a great test for EH to get it out of them .

[Dandy Don]

He's turned it down.

Wants to go to Barnsley?

[FinnMag]

If we relegate, Howe is good manager to bounce back from the Championsip to PL.  He had a long project with Bournemouth, from depths to PL. Why he woudnt do the same with NUFC if relegation happens? All the financial support with new regime is good opportunity for him.

I know everyone tries to look ahead and look at all the permutations etc but the only fact at the moment is that NUFC are only 5 points from safety.  And lets be honest, performances can only improve as the dog shit been served up so far has been the worst we have ever seen.

 

Brentford and Aston Villa are starting to tumble, and Watford may start to struggle also.   

 

Im pretty confident at the moment with Howe hopefully signing and as someone said before - ace we have is Jan window were this time, we are guaranteed to spend!

It was in response to those posters saying we should keep with him if we get relegated.

Some of the hysteria in this and the relegation thread is mindblowing. People voting 10 (ie CERTAIN to go down), “if we’re in touch of safety by January” ffs.

 

We will be out of the relegation zone before the transfer window opens. In my mind, it’s not even a question.

Pretty sure a lot of posters have been here a while and are used to bilge, failure, lost hope .We are so close yet so far away mate at this very point .

 

These next 4 games will decide our destiny .(they won’t but it seems like it)

Just to put another slant on it mate.At the halfway mark we may be on 11 points , that’s 8 games away and would have us levelish with those outside the relegation zone .Look at the fixtures 6 points off them at best .

 

Are you saying at least 1 team is picking up Zero points in that time? 
 

I simply can’t see us being out of the bottom till February at the earliest , maybe March .

 

The only stat that matters is out of it in May , but I get your optimism, I don’t share it .

Why is that unfortunate? I have to assume that is only temporary and once we've matured organizationally, with executives hired who understand how to run a business, the process will become much more fluid. I'm sure PIF would rather have input at a QBR type setting rather than the running of day to day operations. 

 

We've been run like a Sports Direct franchise for the past 15years, so diligence will be done until the change management pieces are put in play to have us run independently, with less oversight from our owners in the day to day. Things will get better, takes time.

 

We'll have to wait and see. But ultimately the one who pays the piper calls the tune.
