    Not sure anything boils my piss more than "if his best team were available, we'd be doing better". Talk about stating the bleeding obvious.

    Be flexible, work with what you've got, addrress your problems, ****ing CHANGE something. He's poor. Just another good coach who's managed to secure a job well above his station. Giving this bloke the transfer keys would be madness and a huge red flag over the leadership team. Goodwill has about 9 months of putting up with this garbage left.

    I understand and tbh while I'm pointing out Howes flaws he's still done a good job overall, but I'm of the opinion the time is right to ditch him this summer if they can get a better manager with more experience and there's a few quid to spend.

    It sounds unpleasant, but Howe is quite simply not the guy Newcastle need for the next phase and if they mess around it's just wasting time trying to be nice.

    Ten Hag ? Get rid he comes across like an arsehole apart from anything else.

    Goodwill on this forum will run out before then. I mean the general fanbase.

    I agree with Chaos, he needs to be binned this Summer ahead of starting the next phase.

    That could also be construed with unrealistic expectation, delusional etc. the simple fact of things is Chaos is not a real life voice, he doesn’t go to games and he can’t express his opinion vocally as a result…… and the vast majority in the ground who have a vocal voice still very much appreciate everything the manager has done and continue to support him.

    Ah right, I thought what boiled your piss the most was when you went to bed with your electric blanket on.

    I do when possible, but I accept season ticket holders voices are way more valid, however it doesn't mean I'm not right ..time will tell, but I don't expect any tap dancing or mental gymnastics if I am.

    Yes, I said that for now he's got about 9 months. If this gutless, one dimensional garbage continues, he'll lose the support. Loyalty isn't the same as blind faith, there has to be progress and/or success. The plan was probably to be in this kind of position last season, and last season's position this time around! Does that cancel each other out? I'm not sure because we're supposed to keep progressing, not one step forward two steps back.

    Howe seems like a really decent fella, good coach, he's not a top level manager.

    It’s not a personal dig. What I’m trying to put across is online voices aren’t as heard where it matters which is inside the ground. Of which I’m guessing not even 1% view not 606. It’s not a dig about season ticket or not it’s simply that the pub and the ground vocally is heard more than here.

    believe it or not that’s with no disrespect meant to any individual bedwetter <laugh>

    I know mate it's all good fun and I'm just being honest there. Season ticket holders ard the voices that should be heard by the club 100%. The rest of us just have a similar disease and can't help it..


    Especially me lol hmmm should I target the club lol

    I get it and I think there’s tons wrong with the ticketing. Trust me I have more issues than most with it.

    I'm wondering if they're ever going to let us know if there's going to be an opportunity for get a season ticket and if the expansion is going to happen?

    I'm also not sure whether FFP might br an issue because Evertons money towards their stadium seemed factored in to their charges.

    I've also become aware there's almost no communication whatsoever from the club? We get nothing and even Howe is an Ale House politician.... the only person I hear is him and from day one he's killed any excitement dead..... if he's asked if there's money nowt, if he's asked what our aims are it's just another game and nothing to get excited about, if there's a player back from injury he's looked OK but let's not think he's going to change the results ... it's never ending buzz killing..... he should come on here and do my job.

    Not sure that's quite right - I mean, it is about Howe, he's incredibly dull. But the likes of Eales, Staveley and Reuben have all been quoted in the past 2-3 weeks, not sure how often you expect to hear from them? I never hear anythig from other clubs execs.

    I've heard nothing on anything specific just the occasional oh well we got beat again tweets.

    Howe is boring he's found a way to kill hope.

    I get puzzled by this. How are those fixtures better than Luton, Bournemouth, Everton, Forest, etc.?

    Because most of the sides we're playing are below us, and we get to play our rivals for 7th place spot at home besides Chelsea.

    Brighton, Wolves and West Ham all at home.
