    Howes rash peddle to the metal philosophy is sadly not suitable for the squad he has at his disposal and until now was never tested at this level

    The only demonstrably good evidence we have is the evidence we're seeing now and if it continues I don't think I need to see more.

    Take Howe out of the equation for me because I firmly believe that If Newcastle were 3-0 up in a cup final with 1 minute of added time to go the world will end.

    Well you have to wonder because since they asked the one to move off the town Moor it's been bizarre.

    It's so long she's dead now so we can't even say sorry.

    I said that was a lie at the time.. it was merely a response to pundits and a common knowledge that Newcastle fans had unrealistic expectations.

    The truth is they did then ....I don’t think they do now though because the investment is there.

    Own it. We want to win something!

    I was never a fan of this “we want a club that tries not wins” ****e. Ofcourse we want players who are passionate, but ofcourse I want a club that wins. it’s a bit small club mentality in my opinion.

    We’re Newcastle United not Aldershot Town. Imagine us finishing bottom but you can see the lads have busted a gut every game for the shirt, who’d be happy?

    It's absolute bullshit from what was a fanbase trying to defend itself from allegations they had unrealistic expectations. They most definitely wanted to compete and win games. I mean give over happy if the club tries ffs... nobody was fooled.

    The game has changed now anyway and the investment is there, so they need to grow the courage to just admit they want us to win a trophy.

    I don’t want to win a trophy, I want 50 league titles and 50 champions league titles

    i was at that match below the banner. It was Rotherham away (Atsu goal 0-1).

    it was genuine and is genuine for most.

    The plastics of course want us to win everything straight away and don’t understand football or football finances. They like to have their cheese strings and coconuts and eat them. Straight away.

    Fair enough mate I prefer that to this weak nonsense where people are afraid of ridicule so they pretend they are happy with the bare bones.

    They're afraid of mockery.

    Let them mock and then punish them when victory comes... if ever !

    Straight away was never part of it

    The club has been bought by Saudi Arabia.. you want to win something that is correct isn't it?

    Come on jj release your true desires.

    Option 4 is just another version of option 2. Just happy with where we’re at. Keeping calm, not overreacting.

    Can you add an option for deep deep down I want Newcastle to win things, but I don't want to open myself up to ridicule and I will therefore lie through the skin of my teeth.

    Are we still going to win the league in the next 7 years? I want to win something I'm not down for just trying like the rest of our fans.

    Winners have a winning mentality and I know you share one also.

    Chaos on the ropes today and looking punch drunk.

    I’d get some more Muesli inside you mate. Power back up Captain.

    PS just booked a 5 nighter to Istanbul in June. Staying in Galata this time. New area for me.
