I think this should be very underwhelming for you lot. yeah he’s an ok manager but unless they’ve done this for next season to win promotion then I don’t see the point in the appointment12 points

Have you tried 'Newcastle Natter'? They seem quite educated on football matters and terms like 'Tarquestas' and also give you quite informal recommendations of books they've written themselves. I mean it might not be quite what you're looking for but they seem decent enough chaps.6 points

Just realised that for the first time in my life Newcastle have a manager who’s younger than me ffs.6 points

I'm not quite sure what Jones has done to deserve all the shit he's getting. Last season he was the man 'responsible for turning it round, then helped England get to the final of the Euros' but now some seem to think he's worse than shite.6 points

Like most sports directors in the world of football, Emenalo has made great signings and bargains and has also made great failures. In one side... Mata, Lukaku, Courtois, De Bruyne, Salah, Hazard, Azpi, Oscar, Matic, Willian, Costa, Ake, Cuadrado, Deco, ... In the other side Zhirkov, Di Santo, Kalas, Moses (even with Conte was good), Atsu, Djilobodjiji, Kenedy, Baba Rahman, Hector, Nathan... But being involved in a top team for so long tells me that it is hopeful. And that later a club like Monaco wanted to sign him, which is characterized by an important policy of signing young promises and then developing them (Fabinho, Mbappe, Bernardo, Bakayoko, James, Carrasco ...) I like it a lot. In addition, he has also been director of the Academy and I believe that in the last 10-12 years the Chelsea youth squad is the best in the country, having won 5 or 6 Youth Cups and has won the Youth League twice and has been runner-up twice. in the 7 years that it has been disputed.5 points

"It's not a criticism, just a different type of training." Wonder if someone had the wobbly lip. Love that he got them doing a beep test day 1 as well.5 points

Well I'm gonna correctly critique the apostrophe you've added to selections and effectively leave you wearing your underpants back to front. What do you think about that then? EHHHH?5 points

Why not? There are thousands of Newcastle United branded crossings up and down let the country, let's let the Trans have one.5 points

Aye both Farke and Smith got their sides promoted so are the reason they’re in the league. I’m not against them going but they’ve both been totally fucked over compared to Bruce, yet there’s not a peep of sympathy for them. Smith iirc inherited Bruce’s fucking mess at Villa, turned them round, got them promoted, built around their star player who was then promptly sold, he’s then been sacked at the first dodgy run while trying to find his feet after having his sides tactical identity upended - personally think out of any this is the sacking the press should be whinging about. Agree regarding Nuno as well, the only reason he was sacked was because they caught a whiff Conte had interest. Levy is to blame for their fucking mess as everyone in the footballing world knew he had to sell Kane, refusing to do so created a nightmare situation for a new manager imo. Usually I don’t give a fuck as at the end of the day that’s how football is, but the absolute fucking nonsense wrote about Bruce is further highlighted by these glaring examples.5 points

Were they bullshit rolls, or were they actually important rolls that Ashley just didn't want to pay for? You know, like scouts and directors of football.5 points

Imagine the contrast between Howe and Bruce. Eddie has been in work since 7am and he’s still running rings around the training pitch and stirring the lads on. Bruce ffs4 points

Aye, I think it’s part of it for sure but I think there’s also a big dollop of laziness. I think a lot of them flat out can’t be arsed to talk about another club, and do some actual research, it’s far easier to just blast out a load of cliches and then go back to talking about how amazing Manchester United is. I think that’s why the Bruce stuff got so absurd, they’d spent two seasons just saying their mate was doing a great job and looking at a mid table finish each year, not seeing how everything was rotting and a relegation was clearly coming, then when we got bought and were relevant news they all doubled down to make it seem they hadn’t been lazy bastards for years. It struck home to me when Martin Keown finally looked past simply the finishing positions and had some mind blowing revelation complete with shocked face on talkSPORT pretty much going “he’s actually doing a bad job!”. Luke Edwards is a prime example of this imo, the takeover news broke when he was traveling to cover the Europa League final and he wanted to just go out on the piss when he got there so decided to just tweet out it was all a load of bollocks and pray nowt come of it, he then proceeded to keep doubling down on this by pretending things like legal difficulties with the PL process was what he had in mind when he’d said a year prior that it was all bollocks, while he kept hoping it would all just go away. In short they’re all a bunch of lazy cunts.4 points

Basically in the time Bruce has had, he has managed to fucking destroy a load of footballers. The lazy bacon eating bastard.4 points

I'm not suggesting some all hate us, (although some quite clearly have their fan heads on when writing), but I'd suggest the clear regional prejudice comes out at times and not even confined to football, tbh.4 points

The thing is most fans are aware of our owners and probably more aware of their crimes since the takeover. It’s not like it’s a big secret and if anything it highlights things. I doubt I would have read up on Khashoggi if this takeover didn’t happen. But yeh - he never answers to any accusations of hypocrisy even though his taking of KSA money is much more direct than that of a football fan. You can easily say “no thanks” To boxing tickets but you can’t change your club,4 points

I don't like to go down the route of "everyone hates us", but I really don't get why we are expected to put up with colossal bastards like Fat Sam, Pardew and Bruce, then we get grief for rightly calling them out. Tbh, the Spurs sacking was a disgrace, Nuno had only just won manager of the month a couple of weeks earlier, but they saw the chance to get Conte and stuck the knife in. Not even a peep of sympathy from the national press.4 points
