    I’d take the captaincy off Lascelles now… give it to Trippier and make Huskinson vice captain.

    I’d then leave Lascelles out of the final 25 squad.

    His hapless performances must be hammering morale around him.

    I’d also try my best to never play S Longstaff again this season. The middle of the team across defence and midfield is why we are where we are.


    I’d blood some of the kids I think to prepare them for the Championship.

    He will keep playing Lascelles and Shelvey and Fraser because he is weak.

    He won’t make a strong decision because he’s not a good manager.

    He has a bad squad no doubt but apart from Joe everyone else has gone backwards.

    He’s lost the dressing room.

    The Cambridge game proved that. When the players went don’t they tunnel he should have told them to get back out.

    Howe is just another Bruce.

    If he hasn't realiseds lacelles are shelvey useless that's bad, but the fact he seems to see them as our best players is very telling.

    Get the taty out of there if we do go down

    I feel like McLaren all over again, everyone wants him peedled and I'm sat defending him, questioning myself

    Don't like Eddie Who, never did. The bloke must have done a fantastic bullshitting interview to get the gig at Newcastle. No surprise to me that he can't and isn't turning round the damage done to club by fatso and the corbridge cabbage. Roll on next season when we can start again.

    Howe's just crap, mate. Celtic backpeddled, saw through him. There's a reason he stayed unemployed. He's weak as piss, a managerial eunuch. Making no key decisions is his thing. Typical FA-styled coach, which I said right back before he was even appointed.

    As it stands it looks like they’ve made a boo boo with Howe, I wonder how much of his appointment was pressure to get someone in after sacking Bruce.

    Howe did they get it so wrong. He might just go down as our worst manager in our history because I can’t see us winning a game under him.

    He’s won 1 in 10 I think.

    So our next 10 games how many does he win?

    Without making aggressive decisions, none. A lot will be dictated by the incoming CEO.

    Howe must be feeling the pressure now. He and his buddies must know their time associated with us is becoming unsafe.

    Whether they'll take advice from outside their bubble is perhaps the decision that will save their jobs.

    They intend on Allardyce signings.. They're going to build a side that isn't even right for the championship

    He's turned Joelinton into a great player, but in converse the rest of them are playing like donkeys.

    I dunno... Tbh I'd rather Joey was still ****e but we got results.
