(For the record- I'm not searching- cause I don't actually care that much. But go on...you're now more curious than I am.) Around page 655 he didn't travel to Asia. Wonder if some poor soul has read all +700 pages after that? Edited August 20, 2025 by Pata Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was wondering the same yesterday seeing the number of pages ramping up. What was the turning point between hero and zero, and what the ratio is for the zero phase. Like a metaphor for his legacy at the club. With time and every extra page, it just keeps getting worse and the good times get gradually overshadowed and fade away.

OverThere Posted August 20, 2025 Share Posted August 20, 2025 I'm now wondering whether he almost threw those last 6-7 games? Hmmm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how does him scoring two penalties in games 34 and 35 (the second which secured a draw in injury time) factor into this theory? He could've sent them to the moon Beckham style or easily telegraphed which direction to the keeper. Edited August 21, 2025 by Pandamninator Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narrative would be all about him scuppering Newcastle's Champions League dreams and him moving on would have made him look like a cunt. Now though, he is a fully certified cunt. Entitled to your own opinion. That's my narrative for this rat now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaqen Posted August 21, 2025 Share Posted August 21, 2025 He's a cunt but I don't think he'd throw games to be fair. I think he was probably mentally checked out after the final though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted August 21, 2025 Share Posted August 21, 2025 Think Howe would have put him in for the last game after missing the one before, if he thought he was trying to sabotage a top 5 finish? Bloody hell, man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted August 21, 2025 Share Posted August 21, 2025 I just don't have any faith in him as a person. Howe could have just sensibly assumed (Like we all did) that the season caught up with him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andycap Posted August 21, 2025 Share Posted August 21, 2025 There was game last season where he fucked about for no reason Barnes looked furious with him cannot recall the team we played but it was at home.

Mattoon Posted August 21, 2025 Share Posted August 21, 2025 I still think a lot of it stems from how useless Wilson was, we ran Isak into the ground, he doesn't have the best energy reserves as it is but we didn't have any options to bring him off, I'd imagine it was as infuriating at times for Isak as it was for us to see him ambling around. And I say that through gritted teeth as right now, I'd hate to give him any credit. He should have been supported better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted August 21, 2025 Share Posted August 21, 2025 So has the "clearly playing with an injury" narrative changed to, "he was purposely trying to cost us a top 5 finish"? We're fucking bonkers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GideonShandy Posted August 21, 2025 Share Posted August 21, 2025 Maybe "Didn't really give much of a shit whether we made the top 5 or not" is closer to the truth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geogaddi Posted August 21, 2025 Share Posted August 21, 2025 (edited) I don't think he was deliberately trying to cost us points but it's definitely fair to say he had basically checked out after the cup final. We all thought he was injured for them last 10 games . He did the same at the start of last season as well when it now transpires he was pissed off about the new contract offer being withdrawn.

Virtua Stiva Posted August 21, 2025 Share Posted August 21, 2025 He’ll have certainly got a tidy bonus for finishing in the Champions League and if there’s one thing we’ve learned, he’s not going to sabotage his chance at a bonus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
