Colos Short and Curlies Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Lets not forget that Howe was an underwhelming choice as well, yes we had some fans who were 100% behind him when it was a race between him and Emery, but most wanted Emery first. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't that what we're doing with Howe. He's the one to be here for years to come. Sacking him for one bad season is not the way to think long term. Back Howe now!

Moose Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 I simply refuse to believe that there isn't a manager in world football who is obtainable who couldn't do a better job with the same resources. Now believe it or not, I'm not smart enough to analyse all potential candidates and identify one or more who I think would be good fits here. But what I can see is a stale squad that looks poorly coached making the same kind of mistakes week in, week out. We are an easy team to play against, we're devpid of quality and predictable, so much so that many fans can tell when we've lost control of a game and can sense the opposition scoring yet the manager is incapable of being proactive with his subs. I haven't seen many, if any players get "Howed" for a very long time, what I have seen though is players regressing or being crap from the get-go and then be discarded. There's nothing wrong with change, perhaps some of the players are feeling jaded after listening to the same voices and ideas for so long, the club needs a refresh from top to bottom as the project has completely stalled. Yes, sometimes making a change will backfire but it's better to take action rather than allowing a decline to continue. I love Eddie, he's the best manager I've ever seen here and he's given us some of the best days we'll ever have as Newcastle fans but that shouldn't grant him immunity forever. Very rarely in football do you get to ride off into the sunset but I think the summer may be a good time for Howe to do just that, for his sake, he looks like a broken man right now.

Heron Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Just now, vexred said: Last season he W20 D9 L9 This season W8 D6 L5 So if my maths is right that's 57 played and 28 won which is just shy of 50% win rate in his time there and ultimately not on course to win the title as planned or anything for that matter.

Groundhog63 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) Thread for daft cunts, really. Granted there will, undoubtedly, be a manager out there that could take over and do a better job next year than Eddie Howe. Obviously that's reliant on both a crystal ball in predicting Eddie Howe's Newcastle's performance next season AND our hierarchy'' s ability to find and employ this, hitherto unearthed, brilliant replacement.

Collage Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) I have no idea. Of course it will happen sooner or later and it will be someone who I don't like as much as Howe, so based on that I really want to him to turn things around asap, but I'm starting to doubt he will.

Sir Joel Inton Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) It’s difficult to answer without knowing what pool we’re finishing in. Ancelloti would be high on my list/first choice, but no idea if he would come after the World Cup. Alonso would be interesting but probably going to Liverpool. If he wasn’t I’d be interested in him. Hoeness, Glasner, Valverde, Iraola and Nagelsmann other options but no idea on their availability, interest levels or other options. Wouldn’t be against us and England swapping managers after the World Cup, but very unlikely. Either way we need to make a decision and act decisively. Whatever the club choose to do I will back but it would be a disaster to not have it decided quickly so we can plan accordingly across the summer.

Newcastle Fan Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 For me the one that feels like a win-win for the ownership and management and the most logical one is Jose Mourinho, he's always had a soft spot for us and spoke highly of us because of the Sir Bobby Connection, and there are many points that support it - One of the best managers of all time. - Big message to both the players and outsiders about how serious the club is and might convince many players to stay - His personality will bring a lot of media attention and interest in the club - Ability to attract top talent with him in charge. - Almost always wins trophies in any club he joins. Even if it doesn't work you can't really fault the ownership if they hire Jose Mourinho, but you can if they gamble of an unknown manager, since we have 4 years left until the project deadline to be one of the best in the world it will be logical to go with him rather than waste a couple of years experimenting.

Absolutely not. Mourinho's been finished at the top level for years. I do think Howe's time is probably coming to an end but if he was replaced with Mourinho then I despair.

The football would be garbage. He was done at this level nearly 10 years ago.
