There's absolutely no doubting the job Howe has done with the control he has had at both Bournemouth and yourselves, but the stature of the clubs at the time allowed it IMO. 

 

Newcastle could become a huge club globally. Man City have done it in a relatively short period of time. You can't have the manager dictating everything at a huge club. I'm not sure there's ever been a case of it being successful. Even Ferguson for us didn't have huge control over transfers and all decisions were made with him and  Edwards/Kenyon/Gill. 

 

I have to say though I'm fairly surprised it doesn't seem to be working with Howe and Mitchell, as on paper it seems a good match. 

 

 

 

I don't think it's a case of dictating or suggesting that, it's that he's already established our identity. He didn’t do it as a dictator, he did it alongside Nixon and with the support of Staveley and Ghodoussi and probably Tindall and his coaching staff.

 

He has the CV as a DoF and the success as a coach  to make throwing the baby out with the bath water a suicidal decision imo.

 

The identity part for Newcastle should already have a line drawn under it AFAIC, it's done.

 

Every Pep team is built in his identity, likewise Klopp and there's always the expectation that they can't succeed unless they get x, y, and z. I'd expect the same will apply with ETH, despite having Ashworth in place.

 

And when they don't have the tools yet (Pep 16/17, Klopp 15/16, 16/17, 17/18) they don't succeed. People might scoff at drawing that comparison but you have to do the same with Howe, he's more than proved his worth, and we'd be absolutely crazy to undermine and potentially lose him so Mitchell - someone whose greatest achievement as a DoF is building the Spurs side that came 3rd the year Leicester won the league - can bring in some Poch regen.

When one of them is lying it is absolutely is yeah.

Maybe the thing that's existed at any sort of professional scale for about five minutes needs a bit more strategic input than the men's first team.

Nah Yorkie, IF they haven’t spoken for weeks and he speaks to Langley daily something is obviously wrong.

Aye these Twitter "NUFC" fans like to make a drama out of everything I had a bit of an argument with NUFC Index today and he ended up calling me thick for calling him out.

Mitchell’s first test 

[gbandit]

Those all make sense, we’d be stupid not to offer them new contracts for slightly different reasons

‘Scar’ and Burn is Bailey trying to send a subliminal message?

Article sounds like pure bait. Without any regard to the merits of extending them, that's been made up to needle the situation.

I would look into selling Burn and Schar this upcoming summer

 

I’d keep Longstaff around for club HG status

[et tu brute]

All three need to be given a contract if we don't want them to leave on a free, so makes total sense

They are both pretty worthless sadly.

From near the end of Eddie's press conference:

 

Edwards: How refreshing is it to have a press conference and no\t be asked about your relationship with Paul Mitchell?

 

Eddie: (laughing) Well you've just ruined that Luke, so thank you. But everything's good, thanks for asking.

Yeah fuck you Luke, ya nipple heed.

[andycap]

Got this feeling that Luke thinks eddie and himself are best buddies. 

Anyone else get that feeling from the desperate bugger? 😂

More that they are worth more to us than other teams.  
 

Schar could be here for years imo.
