Some of the stuff with Echo's dad starts out on Hawkeye. You'll see what I mean.

Aye. I do feel for Howe having to front it all up - if he's "Head Coach" instead of manager, and someone else is in charge of transfer business, there should be a separate press conference at the end of a window for Mitchell to answer questions. And Howe should just maintain his "I'm not involved in the detail" responses whilst the window's open. But as for the rest of it, the bloke can fuck off. If he can't work out how we got in a PSR hole or why we needed to do what we did to get out of it, I'm not sure any answers will be able to help him.

Echo was an easy watch and something a bit different. But you'd have to watch the Hawkeye series first (think it's only 6 eps) or there'll be some stuff that doesn't make sense.

https://www.themag.co.uk/2024/09/my-open-letter-to-the-newcastle-united-owners/ The man wants answers. I want answers for some of his previous articles: Sacking Alan Pardew - be careful what you wish for. What did sacking Alan Pardew actually achieve?

Alreet Yasir, we'll get straight on with it. Jeeeeeezers.

What was it like @Kid Dynamite? I had a Scream for Pizza on Sat night. Tremendous as ever. £13.50, not the £30 they charge the Mackems.

Canny mad that Lewis is off to Sao Paulo btw.

Burn, Schar, Longstaff, Krafth will probably be offered extensions. The rest will be allowed to leave.

I enjoyed the two Korean lads reacting to the winner.

Haven't watched it yet but I'm expecting a lot of "Naaaah fam! Naaaah blud!"

I reckon it's the fitness thing Howe has been on about. They all just don't look sharp enough atm. It'll get there but the sooner we knock it on the head with these stupid summer tours, the better. Doesn't help that most of the midfield will be away on international duty where fitness will just be assumed, so there'll not be a lot done on it.

Was it the Derram Bewk Centre?

He said "I think they're challengers".

You watch Ten Hag in total denial in his interviews and press conference. At least Howe is honest about where we are - says the performances need to be better and that it's very clear that we aren't where we need to be fitness wise. He says there's a LOT of work to do in fitness during the international break. No bullshit, he knows what's wrong, just needs to sort it. He's asked specifically about Gordon and what's going on with him, and he says it's a fitness thing but he will be fine.

Louise Taylor taking this analogy out the back and kicking the absolute fuck out of it.

Man United's problem is coaching, not personnel. They look as fucking clueless as they did the past two seasons. They're all over the place. Bringing different players in won't help.

Ratcliffe and Brailsford look like they're having fun anyway. As does the Man United crowd.

Liverpool's pace on the break is terrifying. Diaz is like shit off a stick.

3 nil. We want 4.

Stop worrying shout us for 5 minutes and listen to poor Roy Keane doing his HT analysis.

We're back to them thinking they're a mid table Premier league club again. It's.... We could knock them out of the cup to put them right if they hung around long enough.

It'll be one win from three for Man United if it stays like this. Two results behind us after three games.

1.57 v 1.26 on xG in our favour.

Sky BLASTING through the highlights of the goals here so they can get on to their main event.
