Wasn't really sure where to put this, but does this not all feel incredibly alien? Like every day I see us linked with about 4 new players, most of which I've never heard of, and despite being 2nd bottom, with the lowest points total at this stage for us in our history, we've filled a 52k stadium for an FA Cup 3rd round vs a League One side and genuinely don't believe we're going down whatsoever.

 

It's just so strange. :lol: I'm just praying I don't get some bad reality check...

I think to avoid relegation we need to fill the following positions:

 

LB

CB X2

Cm

Cf x2

 

6 more players on top of Trippier, probably can get away with a back up loan option for the second striker. 
 

Seems like a big ask for owners.

And strikers are usually the hardest of the lot to find and sign

All too predictable isn't it mate...

 

Said this last night - the last few months have been a microcosm of being a Newcastle United fan: shit owners and a shit manager get replaced by rich owners and a good manager, and we've failed to capitalise at every stage. Owners come in and don't sack Bruce, so we don't capitalise on the feel good factor vs spurs. Then Howe comes in and gets covid so he's not at his first game and we fail to capitalise. Then Clark makes a stupid decision that gets him sent off and we fail to capitalise vs Norwich. We sign Trippier and then fail to capitalise vs League One opposition when we desperately needed a confidence booster.

 

Hopefully this all becomes a distant feeling in years to come, but to date it feels like we're strung along and not allowed nice things - there's a carrot in front of the donkey that is NUFC and we just keep on trying to get it and missing.

And completely ott unneccessary to avoid relegation. If we get a one CF, CM & CB we're golden. The most important thing is to get them in ASAP so we're not bedding players in until march.
