    Bournemouth wouldn’t have went down without injuries.

    He didn’t buy well agreed, but he will be u set a sporting director. Played very good football and massively improved a lot of players.

    I genuinely think he’d be a top class pick for them and I’d rather they didn’t get him.

    They finished behind Villa who also had their own injury problems, that's how it is.

    I don't think any team is relegated just on injuries, we weren't.

    Remember hearing the typical motd cliché of second season syndrome for the reason for the relegation

    They lost King and Wilson for massive chunk of season, went from scoring a lot to not scoring at all. If either one of them stayed fit they’d have had enough in my opinion.

    If you don’t rate him, then hope he gets it. Personally, I think he’s a good fit and I’d rather not see it happen.

    He bought Solanke though. He was bought as a centre forward and is a poor mans Gayle.
    I just don’t see it. He did improve players. But the owners are wanting to spend. If he’s allowed to spend, I think he’ll fail. He failed at both Burnley and Bournemouth when he had money

    I've always hated Bournemouth, the team that relegated us from the Prem, so I laughed when they went down.

    No love lost for Howe, and would give me more reason the hate the twat should he take charge of Newcastle.

    It was a terrible time for me when Bobby Robson was manager, I'd always admired the man and my family knew his family to a small extent.

    I was also convinced he'd win trophies for them, which would've happened if the idiots hadn't hounded him out of the club.

    I kind of liked Howe until he became a victim of his own ego ...

    ... I'd like him to go Newcastle because I think the Mags would be disappointed and he'd fail.

    6 year contract please <laugh>

    I had a built in program to hate everything Newcastle United ever since birth. But I just couldn't hate Bobby.

    if the orcs don't get a 'hollywood' type manager, the rot will set in from day one, there simply isn't a more fickle set of fans anywhere. I can't wait for the reaction if they go for some average joe.

    There’s no probably about it tbh. Allardyce would keep that squad up with no problems at all but the muppets up the road wouldn’t stand for him.

    Like I said, they be getting a sporting director he won’t sign anyone. What he will do is play good football and working as a team.
