There’s so many fans accepting mediocre results which concerns me a little.

But it’s in our dna to lose when it matters.

The big one is coming. Sunderland. If we lose that.

Im just gonna say let’s hope we don’t.

say it with me

:emoticon-0159-musicIf Newcastle lose against Sunderland, send Howe back to Bournemouth:emoticon-0159-music

I'll never accept losing to championship mackems.

no ****ing way

Literally our most reliable player failed us 2 mins away from a semi final and then missed a pen.

I have to say that to be seeing matt Ritchie stepping up to take the 5th pen was quite telling... there's a long way to go to get this squad strong enough.

which we and the club owners have been saying consistently for months and months.

what other insights can you share fella… water being wet? Obi being fat? Mustard being the on trend colour?

I'm sensing you're not taking this latest toon special well.

It helps to discuss things if you don’t come across as all hysterical with expressions like ‘it’s in our DNA.’
 
apart from PSG, Man Utd, Man City, Arsenal of course.. but let’s not mention those games eh? <laugh>
I gave credit when it was due on all games. I’m balanced. If I’m happy I give credit. Bug very definition I don’t shove my head up my arse when we **** it up and go “ah well it’s ok because we are on a journey”.

FFS I give it both ways. It’s fair. And just.

Don’t just go ah we are used to so much failure in our lives that it’s normal.

Learn from it.

I won’t say he will need sacked but we have lost a lot of important games recently. Especially away from home.

And that one does make me concerned.
 
I’d rather be a Toon supporter than a Chelsea one these days, imagine having a squad worth close to 2bn playing a club who are in the middle of one of the worst injury crisis in PL history and relying on a 33yr old physically and mentally burnt out RB to hand you the game.

The big games we get wrong.

Simple.

That’s my opinion. You can’t change it. So don’t get offensive.

We ****ed up. Again!

if you are offended by my opinion that you made a whopper of a comment and then backed up that opinion with some independent stats then, in my opinion you need to get some rest fella and chill out.
 
I’m sorry for all those people who don’t want to accept that we are proverbial losers because we are.

We are on a journey. We played ok but we still got it wrong.

Let’s just accept that historically and factually and not bed wetting: we are losers. Fact.

We ain’t won a sausage. Fact.!

We are entering the twilight Mark Hughes/Man City days. When the likes of Garry Cook and Mark Hughes were just shown to never have the mindset, ability or balls to get the club further, they acted and made a LOT of replacements.

Our transfers have been awful since we let Howe take the lead. The squad management awful. The lack of nous in games telling. The results say it all. I thought it couldn't get worse than chucking it vs Liverpool, then Milan said "hold my beer" before Trippier said "I'll see your beer and raise you".

I think others have it nailed - this is set up for Mourinho coming in, but to do that you can't have the likes of Staveley calling any shots. There's going to be ongoing questions from the very rich Arabian ownership and Howe's not going to like it. Anyone can win the home games, as has been proven by Villa, Fulham and even Bournemouth and Everton. The away form is disgraceful. £300m+ spent and Matt Ritchie's on the field - all this "impact" **** is tiresome, Schar, Gordon, Isak are out because their soft tissue can't cope with this style. There's a reason we're the only team playing 100mph pressure football, because it's not sustainable. Throw in the ridiculous subs - what the **** are we paying £30m for Hall for if he's worse than Ritchie? - and we're at a crossroads.

Honestly, don't come at me - we are at a crossroads and some of the people fundamental to our rise will be victims, whether you like it or not.
 
It is. We have not won a sausage in 700 years.

In the big games we always lose. Last 3 finals lost.

tonight. Lost.

PSG lost.

We are good at losing and that’s why we always accept it.

Didn’t lose to PSG, in fact we had one of the worst refereeing decisions of the season rob us of a win

Again, to me, that sounds hysterical. ‘We haven’t won a sausage in 700 years’. Really?

And you’re claiming to be balanced?

‘Big games we always lose’. I’m assuming you’re saying this is a ‘big game’ especially given you’re reaction. Well we won it last year. We also won the 2 semi finals last year which must also be big games if the quarter final is. So you are clearly wrong. Not very balanced at all.
