    I can explain it.

    He found something that thought nailed Howe to the cross for spending half a billion quid. Never read it properly, posted the link then thought he'd call us all out. Whilst forgetting he's an actual accountant and his sums were worse than ToonBoys homework <laugh>

    If you factor inflation mate it would be. And you don’t have to get personal. We could all do that. No need.

    The fact that I was linking the real amount and quoting 500m clearly means I was being facetious. So your attacking the wrong facet of my argument.

    I just think the abuse has to stop. We (post about our opinions) and when you don’t like them resort to calling names, bedwetting, commenting on our careers, or our facts etc.

    There is no need to get personal just because you don’t agree with what I post.

    But ultimately the bedwetters are making valid points of which the cult don’t like. So they ridicule.

    That could be deemed in appropriate.

    Normal thoughts and process not blind faith about Howe is godlike.

    I state the opinions I want when I want and whether people like them or not that’s fine.

    But to then go and abuse people for their opinions isn’t acceptable.

    Again you’re missing the point and I’ve just flippantly done it again. Big you choose to respond violently.

    I am making a point that Howe has spent a fortune and isn’t delivering.

    No need to be abusive.

    GG.....You called us out. You posted the link. We've not been attacking anyone. I never seen any gloating after West Ham game, and I've not even tried to go through the Everton thread yet.

    440 euros since 2021. Which is about £379m.

    Now factor in inflation.20.03% since 2021. Taking a conservative average of 15% that equals £435m. So ok it’s £65m away from 500m.

    I am sorry.

    Since when have I praised Howe as godlike, or shown blind faith? <laugh><laugh>

    I just haven't completely slated him, like you have.

    You openly abuse the manager, but then say being abused isn't acceptable. If you can dish it out, then learn to take it.

    I don’t abuse him at all. I just think he is under performing. Making a valid claim which you have just backed up.

    I don’t call him names. I don’t abuse him.

    I state my opinion based on the things I see and feel. That’s not for everyone. Who cares.

    Anyhoo if I offended you by joking Chaos had you hooked by a fishing rope. I apologise. But it was meant to be fun. Hence the GIF.

    Maybe yu over reacted? I do that occasionally.

    Has he abused the manager ? I know everyone abused Bruce.

    Everyone needs to accept there's two sides to this and stop getting personal with eachother .. everyone is OK man... it's Pickford that did us.

    Let's all just move on.

    Depending on how you choose to look at it something or nothing.

    The laughs afterwards. What are they for? Do you find my comments funny? If so that’s great.

    It’s meant to be a happy environment.

    Mate you're under attack for not being conformist. If it wasn't getting personal I wouldn't be saying this. The fact is they want you me and others to stop saying things they don't like or that they don’t agree with.

    I'm fine if they say that, but not when people start attacking others simply for annoying them with different views on things.

    Argue the point basically and if people start mouthing off about people they're losing the debate.

    I like obi , yourself and everyone on here!I like the banter on here so let's all (myself included ) just pull put head out our arses because I don't like seeing people getting beaten into not saying what they feel.

    So can we just summarise my point here.

    Eddie How has not spent £500m.
    and even when you again post something to back this story up it says €439m (that's Euro's not pounds)

    Or am I completely missing the ****ing point here of arguing that Eddie Howe hasn't spent £500m.

    Say what you want, believe what you want. That's everyone's choice.

    I personally want to see the club do well and I'd like to see Eddie Howe do well. There's clearly areas for improvement both on and off the pitch. All we've said is give it some time. But lets at least be factual with what's being said.

    There's enough facts out there to support your beliefs to make compelling arguments. We don't need to chuck false stuff out there.

    How much has he spent ? This is the key here.. all these numbers are probably inaccurate but they give us a rough idea.

    The point being made is that Newcastle aren't overarching I believe.

    I agree best would be if howe is successful.
