KaKa Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago 34 minutes ago, Joelinton7 said: Says he didn’t even know Southgate had left but as long as he’s supported at the club then he’ll stay. Also says there’s been zero destabilisation of anything. One in the eye for Luke. But of course we all knew Eddie would have no probs with Mitchell coming, AS going or anything else because he’s a consummate professional. Luke was going on about Howe not being spoken to about the new director of football, but from Mitchell's interview that isn't true. These journalists are a mess man.

WilliamPS Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago He’s just venting about the PSR mess, probably didn’t want to lose Anderson, annoyed other players were offered up too. There is going to be tension between the plans to be “better sellers” and the manager wanting to keep his preferred players. Unfortunately the tension will continue due to PSR, the club just need to manage it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago Calm down lads, it's just a power play to push through the transfers of Trafford, O'Shea, Berge and Odobert, nowt to get all worked up about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago "What do you say to supporters worried about you going to England?" "I'm absolutely honoured and privileged to be manager of Newcastle United and I hope that's for many, many years. My commitment is unwavering, I'm determined to try and win a trophy for the football club. That's my big message." 15 minutes ago, gdm said: absolute weapon.

Ikon Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago (edited) Overall very positive. Maybe some things didn’t need a mention, maybe it’s better to keep in-house? I mean it might just risk there being unnecessary speculation. Edited 7 hours ago by Ikon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a "I'm happy but I need to make sure I can work properly with the new people who've come in". Doesn't remotely suggest that any boundaries have been overstepped. Watch the BBC Newcastle interview. He's fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago Should also be said that both Eales and Mitchell have recently done interviews and spoken in absolutely glowing terms about Howe. Seems like everyone's on the same page to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a new man replacing Ashworth. Unless something has happened this last week which I'd be surprised about, I can't see where any boundaries are over stepped?

Dr Jinx Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago If you've ever worked in a senior position in a company and then had someone new come in who is working over you, it is just unsettling and the natural response is to feel negative about your own position and to those above you. Now it may not be as extreme as that for Eddie but there's definitely a pissing contest brewing.. I think he won that pissing contest with Ashworth which is why the rat wanted out so soon. Mitchell won't be pushed around either politically, mentally or physically so having an option of moving to a less demanding job with nobody above him would be quite the lure.

jigen Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago 5 minutes ago, et tu brute said: Seems to me he's just pushing the owners to make the right choices in the transfer market, which is what we all want. Of course the fannies won't see it that way. Oddjob wants to fuck off also, I don't know who the fuck he thinks he is. Howe wants english and pl players. And Mitchell prefers buy abroad. Howe is a great coach but he knows only PL players and wants only PL players (an inflated market). The market is competence of the sporting director, not of the coach.

Again, you wrongly read in to what I wrote. That’s not my fault what I meant was he’s concerned boundaries potentially may get overstepped and that’s why he wants those boundaries established. At no point did I say bounderies had already been over stepped. Mitchell has only been in the job a week ffs the key word in my original post is potentially.
