An entire page of mental gymnastics. They were 11th with 6 wins in 19 and that's the bottom line..even the manager acknowledges it.
So, you’re ignoring the facts in that article which don’t suit you. Mental gymnastics, I think is the expression.
No that's just some bloke that's created an argument based on whatever he can drag away from the fact Newcastle only won 6 in 19. Cup games vs championship sides aren't an issue though.
The article clearly says let's look as the good parts, adds in cups games and acknowledges the form isn't great even with them included.
Yet again you're defeating yourself. Your last evidence of apparently the manager saying we're bad away was an interview for 9 months ago. Now we get the above totally out of context picture above, this is dated 12th May, what had happened then? Oh yeah we'd hammered Burnley away a few days earlier. Your searching must improve.
It's 7 in 22 including may until today and Howe acknowledged the issue this season also. If you don't agree with Howe or that away form isn't an issue with your belief Newcastle will finish 3rd then you're away with the fairies. I don't think they'll finish top 6 because of the away form.... the away form is why you lost our bet.
Please present evidence of what Howe has said about our away form this season. Our away form hasn't been an issue since mid January, so Howe would not have been commenting on our away form since then.
In his press conferences before away games and after the defeat at Fulham. The away issue is common knowledge. Again you're picking out the parts you like..... it's like me picking outs a run of defeats. I'm looking at athe last full season and even this, which is far more telling than you picking one game at Burnley. I think I’ve said this a few times now, but it's afraid easier to just acknowledge the away form than in it to pick out a few things you like so you can lie to yourself... howe doesn't he acknowledges it.
No he didn't, so I'll just assume you're talking garbage until you present any actual evidence. I'm not picking out one game - last season away form: Up to January P10 W1 D2 L7 After January P9 W5 D0 L4 Even the most deranged lunatic can obviously see that's a big turnaround in form, especially as the 4 defeats were narrowly losing to Man U and Chelsea away and losing to excellent Arsenal and Palace teams. It's clearly good away form, and it's continued to this season. Howe would not be saying our away form is an issue after the defeat at Fulham, because he is not mentally insane, the results clearly show there is not an away form issue now.
I literally just commented on that as it's completely out of context, we had literally won 2 of the last 3 away games at that time. Howe's comment was clearly related to the early season form and not how they were doing at that point. Again, you've defeated yourself. Plus you haven't mentioned anything about what Howe has apparently said this season.
