I’ve seen the Gayle thing heavily mentioned on Twitter by our fans, a lot of who seem desperate to see him play. I don’t get why? The bloke’s utter shite at this level, and has looked disinterested when playing in the past. He might play if Wood needs a rest but he should be right in the skip as soon as the season ends.

Other Games 21/22: Talk about Actual Football
Howay replied to Ayatollah Hermione's topic in Newcastle Forum
Saka’s movement is unbelievably good. What a player he is. -
The bloke that runs this account is spot on like. Their constant obsession about Staveley is getting really weird too btw. Still, always a laugh to read their desperate day dreams of “daint worry marra it’ll aal sowwa and the maggy coonts will want them out” despite zero evidence of that, also how are your “new” owners shaping up
-
Not meaning he is, I just don’t see 30 year old and injury prone Wilson as very good back up which is what he’d be if we spent a load on a new striker, and out of him and Wood he’d be more sellable. Getting in an extra £15m or so to spend and getting a decent 22 year old in on a free would be an adequate swap imo, if we are talking back up roles anyway.
-
Personally, I think Wood has this issue of being really shit. Joking aside I’d genuinely look to sell either Wood or Wilson, if we could get say 15m+ for Wilson and replace him with Nketiah (of course in this scenario we’d be buying a Nunez or whoever to be the starter), I think that would be a good move. As much as I like Wilson he can’t seem to sustain a run in the side, and although there’s an argument that less playing time might help my worry would be an injury prone back up can be an unreliable back up.

Steve McClaren sacked as Newcastle United 'Head Coach' (Manager)
Howay replied to Tooj's topic in Newcastle Forum
Hope you’re wrong, but I do agree. Either way, it won’t matter for them. We are inevitable. -

Is that Everton going down on head to head? That would be fucking hilarious tbf.

Steve McClaren sacked as Newcastle United 'Head Coach' (Manager)
Howay replied to Tooj's topic in Newcastle Forum
It could work, but I think their problem is there’s a crop of players there who likely won’t listen to him and work hard to make his system work. Getting rid of that contingent will be difficult given their ownership clearly operates under a merchandising focus, aiming for players with brands rather than ones that fit the system. Agree that there’s already been a hint of that type of issue with the pushing back against him bringing in his own staff. The other factor is managers get absolutely fuck all time there. I feel like if they’re not immediately successful they’re seen as a big problem and need to be sacked, a manager like this needs to build. -
Aye you know a player is a waste of time when his best traits are “puts in a shift”, so you mean the bare minimum thing you should expect from a professional?

Aye, so like a Southampton, or an Aston Villa, your run of the mill bottom half team of scrubs. Fwiw I’d take Nketiah as back up, he’s a vast improvement on Gayle, and at 22 he’s got plenty time to improve. If we could get him for relatively cheap, along with Tarkowski on a free, those moves strengthen the depth of our squad.
-
I’ve went for Bruno, I’m biased as he’s the type of player who has always been a favorite of mine (that Cabaye/Verrati type of passing CM that is also combative), but on top of that I think he’s been crucial in the wins against Southampton, Wolves, Leicester, and Palace so as mad as it is to say a player with 6 starts deserves it he’s been man of the match in 3-4 of the 6 and is the main reason for half our wins this season . Joe, Burn, and Trippier all very close for reasons mentioned by everyone else.

This is tremendous btw. Basically they were all attacking each other in the stands, and their consensus was the manager should have been throwing things about and screaming at half time . There’s a bit where one of them starts complaining about a game they lost to Lincoln City the season before , that alone shows how fucking small time they are now.
-
Of course it’s that gipetto idiot asking that. They’re fucking miles behind Sheffield United on and off the pitch, utter deluded pricks.
-
He’s also one step from claiming one of them as a MLF with his “traditional (red&white) dress” comment .
-
The best part is if it was true it would take an absolute fucking fortune for them to get him. No more of this worrying about losing him for a low fee and then not reinvesting.

“Eeeeyah marras I did some reyysurch on the internet masheyyne at the lercul library, pennywell massive FTM. And it seems there was a few solar system things happening when the mag gayums happened, lad behind the desk reckons when it happens and people travel by bus they feel extra tired. Definitely why the mags won their last three. FTM” ”aye marra, was pushing the Alsatian around in its pram today, and saw the lad who used to scuttle owwah lassie, proper MLF, eee says he knaars al abowt space stuff as he has a subscription to all about space magazeyun and went to posh skewel where he learned reyydin and that. So ah asked him and he said aye marra definitely that, then asked how our Sharon was as last time he saw her she said she needed a lie down, proper caring lad, classy you knaars. Anyway FTM”

I fucking love that the bloke who replies to him hates us so much that even when he knows the reason for the order he still cannot disagree with the insanely wrong post “infuriated me too marra, of course it’s because the games are in order of kick off time and not alphabetical, but still marra I’m absolutely fewmin just thinking about if they should have been in alphabetical order the BBC would have put them in the wrong order because it’s the mags”. Additionally getting annoyed at the order of listing the scores? Really ?

This is all fucking brilliant. The levels they are going to so they can make themselves feel better is bonkers. Literally researching how many points possession equates to? That’s definitely not a thing look at Jose Mourinho’s Inter Milan, they won a fucking CL getting about 20% possession across two legs against Barca, they were superb in those games it wasn’t luck. Love the cherry picking as well, “weyy they were pewwwah against Everton and Spurs” not mention Chelsea away?Southampton away? Leeds away? We were also the better side in the first half against Everton, and fairly solid first half v spurs. Never battered Chelsea like Brentford did nah we haven’t but we’ve also been the better side both times we played Brentford. That’s ignoring the contradictory sentence which also includes 3 home games against sides above us in the table (two European spot chasers included) as winnable so we are so good that we should easily beat top half sides, but all our players are shite?
