    Home win this one although watching Leicester countering West Ham is concerning.

    If Howe can't get wins from the next 3 things are even worse than I think.

    That’s why it’s concerning.

    Tbf on recent form Leicester beat West Ham and drew with Brighton..two teams we've lost to.

    I do think Newcastle will win at home though...

    West Ham and Palace were supposed to be winnable, football doesn't work like that.

    If we score early we probably win about 3-0..we don't and it's 0-0 or such..we know how it goes by now.

    And we were supposed to lose to Arsenal, City and Liverpool.

    My point is they ain't horrible fixtures.

    We should be doing Leicester at home, no excuses there.

    Ipswich away is the type of fixture we seem to always lose so I am not too confident with that

    Villa home? Since it's at St James' I'd expect a win

    It's pointless looking at a fixture list and saying that's a winnable game, that isn't, that will be a draw etc, football doesn't work like that, if we knew the result of a game beforehand it would be a waste of time going to or watching a match.

    Something just feels off. Has done since the Staveley announcement, maybe even before that.

    I feel like AS was always leaving due to finances but think she got sold out by Eales and others to take the blame for psr cock ups which EH and players didn't take to kindly to

    The rules are working and there's just only so much the owners can do.
