    Willock was very poor today and Joelinton below par

    You still owe me your usename and avy because we didn't finish top 6 last season

    You had the same attitude then and when proven wrong you welched

    I think I said west Ham would finish above us before the season started... they have good players....it showed today that they can play and they were missing kudos.

    I don't think we've got enough....yes we've got a handful of very good players, but we've also got a large percentage of below par ones and it'll tale a few years to correct that.

    West Ham have been top half and higher for a few years before our takeover.

    No I don't because if I did that you would just use "but look at your username" as a retort whenever things didn't go your way.

    Hmmm you were quite happy after the last few games where he used exactly the same players barring Kelly who was the only logical change for the suspended Burn who most on here slag off mercilessly

    It’s almost like
    • Quality manager with Champions League experience and ambitions
    • Quality squad with Champions League experience and ambitions
    • Continual ability to recruit improvements who have Champions League experience and ambitions
    • Virtually unrestricted spend; and
    • Lavish sponsorships
    help to avoid the everyday rough and tumble of a Premier League season as experienced by 80% of the League.

    I don’t ever remember us having a home banker since I started going in 1970

    Now that's just weird.

    West Ham were having a dogshit season and their manager would have likely been sacked had they lost tonight.

    They played some nice stuff but Newcastle have always been **** against a stocky striker and then fast players playing off. I thought Summerville was great and would have been more lethal if it wasn't for Tino who had a great game against him.

    Newcastle panic'd and there was no build up to their play. I think the players have a motivation issue against lower league sides. This game was really bad and I think Im with Roy, we are a 7- 12th place team and I think PSR will keep us there. Howe, is great at handling the press etc and is a genuine guy but it all feels very stale. Our corners and free kicks are a waste of time, we are good when teams come onto us but run out of ideas very quickly when a team sits back.

    We have replaced Dummet with a more expensive Kelly who will be like Lewis, on the books forever. We have so many left sided midfielders that Howe is too nice to make a call on.

    Basically mid table beckons and then we will have to sell Isak or Bruno.

    It's not really they're 3 points behind us and they were tipped to challenge top 6 themselves.

    They have some very good players.

    They just beat us.

    What happened to giving Howe till the end of the season? One defeat and you’re all over him again.

    Stale is the perfect description for everything about the club and side. It's the same old **** we've had again and again.. the same old **** for the squad too.... the players looked utterly fed up Today.

    The moneys dried up, so nothing can really be done about it...the squad is 400 million away from competing with the top 6.... 7th or 8th looks a stretch.

    Howe has no chance of his objective if it's
    Europe... he just hasn't got the players.

    Oh well on to Palace.

    The cup is more interesting than mid table that's for sure. We had mid table for 4 years before the takeover.. it's dull! I think I preferred the relegation battles and the championship.
