    Not seen anything about this other than they'd like to keep him. He's basically said he doesn't mind what happens. Also seen some Serie A clubs looking to buy him in the summer.

    Yeah, I saw they want him to stay and that he said doesn't mind, so he'll do whatever NUFC say.

    Ultimately, if we either utilise him in the first team squad, or sell him for a profit, then it's decent business.

    The scenarios we don't want are that he either fades away in Europe, or just sits in our reserves not getting a look in.

    Why not ? He's doing a great job overall, but nobody is perfect and above criticism.

    Lewis Miley wasn't picked out of preference and Hall he used every other possible option 1st. To the point the fans were saying the club had made a mistake.... I said otherwise throughout.

    Well, at least, we don't have to worry about you fading away. Not even Toonboy will live the time that would take.

    Constructive, I agree. Destructive, I don't agree.

    So, he did select and play Miley.

    And he has triggered the criteria to buy Hall permanently.

    Yep, I see your point.

    Like you have for EH helping the team to be sixth and with European qualification in our control with 6 games left.

    I have given him credit for successes and 6th will be one if we land there. Unfortunately you refused to credit a previous manager for doing aswel as Rafa Benitez for two seasons. Instead you waited and waited until inevitable failure and went in hard, so you have no moral high ground. I have if you look credited howe and raised concerns and criticisms.. I did the same with Bruce which was hard.....we don't have to be so partisan.

    Care to show the last positive post you made about EH?

    You have been OTT in your destructive criticism of EH nearly all season and he has quietly got the team to where we currently stand. So don't try and tell me your criticism has been anywhere near balanced.
