    You didn’t answer the question dipshit.

    The question is a yes or no answer. Anything else and your being a pussy.

    The only kid here is the one who cries sack the manager every time we lose then cries more when pulled for it. Then tries to insult the eyesight but cries again when insulted in return. I could say dimwit isn’t name calling it’s just descriptive.

    There is no yes or no and expecting that confirms how immature you really are.

    I think Howes ran his race to be fair, players look like they aren’t arsed anymore with his “intensity is our identity” spiel - can anyone say they see Gordon running his bollocks off currently? Looked like the most lazy recently.

    Howe doesn’t seem to be able to get them motivated, doesn’t seem to be able to change a game tactically and doesn’t seem to be able to make changes to make a difference- literally his subs make us worse every time.

    Credit vs Arsenal because he changed it up and that worked but then we’ve reverted back to the boring, flat 433 - that has no tactical nouse at all - and if it doesn’t work he doesn’t change it.

    Myself and I believe others including GG simply don't think that is the man required to take Newcastle on to the next level or win something.

    This isn't saying sack him because we lost to Brighton, which is very different, but not difficult to understand.

    All I'm seeing is people insulting eachother which is childish and all comes from a misunderstanding and personal sensitivities.

    Just need to ask yourself this question - do you think this team and manager have the mentality to win things.........

    It's history repeating to a degree because form has dipped dramatically following the semi final. Then the red card is another repeat issue and just the fact tried spinning too many plates rather than make a sacrifice on one.

    The final looks all set to be a humiliation and European qualification is beginning to look very difficult.

    deserves to get some new signings this summer regardless and then I think he has to land Europe or go.

    Football can be really bloody weird sometimes, mate, so the final is a one off and if we raise our game and play a well thought out system like vs Arsenal, we have a very, very small chance of an upset. I also don't think Euro qualification is difficult, but needs a complete change of mindset and this 4-4-2 Howe tried has to disappear as quickly as it appeared. He's tried it three times, it's been awful every time.

    Personally I think he has to land Europe this season, or he'll be gone. And whilst we should have brought players in - at least one per window - I still look at the fact he was here and very involved in transfers during the PSR debacle. For whatever reason, we've kept too many crap players around which in turn has meant we've had no Minteh or Anderson on the bench, and in doing a deal with Forest for Anderson somehow picked the only player we could get zero use from.

    Right now based on the squad I don't think another manager could pull more out of them for the remainder of the season.

    I've been for replacing Howe for a while now, but if investment in the squad is how it is, there isn't any point

    Tactically, I don't think Howe is good enough nor do I think he's tough enough but I can't see much better around.

    It was a big loss for Newcastle when Unai Emry chose Villa over us, is all I can say.

    He didn't choose villa over us, the timing was wrong. He joined villa nearly a year after he rejected us.

    Emery quotes

    “I thought about the offer and I spoke with (Villarreal president) Fernando Roig but I also had to take into account that we were in the Champions League with Villarreal, mid-season.

    "In the end, with a lot of respect for Villarreal, and a lot of respect for Newcastle, I decided to stay here. I am happy here and we are doing an important job.”

    Whilst I agree with all of this. Howe made decisions on transfers and recently they are either not working out or we had to sell because of FFP.

    Tactically and the mentality of the players is where we have declined.

    What happened to the intensity is our identity.

    I don't really have any evidence to say who did and didn't make decisions at the club

    All I know is some aren't working

    It's easy to forget Villa had their takeover years before ours, so they'll have had things set up long before our owners got their foot in the door.

    Newcastle will go again soon and Howe does deserve next season following another spend, but I like others dont think he's going to be good enough long term.

    I think we all acknowledge it's going to work out best if Howe is in fact the right man for the job.
