Newcastle Utd (and Viz)

Might be a decent transitional manager for them if they can take a potential relegation on the chin. Even if he keeps them up, it'll take a couple of seasons to prepare them for a better manager if/ when they start to stall under Howe and that's if everything goes their way.

I'm sure they're all up for a good man if it is Howe as he's quite an underwhelming option given they have uber rich owners.

Indeed. People forget we are mid season atm, you can't just appoint Pep and buy everyone in Jan. First few years the main target will be becoming a West Ham / Wolves like club, finishing 7-10, if they succeed that, then they can force their way to be a Spurs/LCFC with the huge cash from the Saudis, a top manager and loads of stars.

Nah, go have a look at RTG. Take football away and we’re all the same, my best mates support Sunderland. Forums tend to track the worst and loads of WUMs. Have a good read on RTG, there’s some amazing stuff on there. Sunderland, despite having Nissan voted for Brexit; that’s a whole swath of folk voting out. A local was yesterday found guilty of racial abuse after shouting at a man with a broad Scottish accent thinking he was East European and there are regular reports of questionable behaviour with their fans.

The media tend to go looking for our numpties, the Mackems get a bit of a free ride despite their shenanigans. We have a huge surfer flag from a good few years ago that has images of local landmarks. One is of The Spanish City at Whitley Bay, have a read of some of the remarks claiming it was a Mosque in tribute to KSA......

BTW, if Emery’s heart wasn’t in it then I’m glad he’s turned it down. If it is Howe, he’s got a huge job on his hands but also a great opportunity.

Pfft what’s this?!. Think Newcastle and their fans have been given a free ride by the media for years. Cheeky friendly Geordie fans. So passionate though. Oh so passionate about their footy. Sleeping giant etc. They deserve this after years of Ashley being fiscally responsible and making them a fairly constant premier league team.
Lived there for many years and was greeted with a wall of delusional nonsense every working day.

Saintly Newcastle Fans of Newcastle, eh?
 

It’s certainly an interesting challange to try and stay up this season. What do you do in January ? Guess money no object, but you will need to sign players who know the league and are ready to go immediately.
Would they sign a short deal though knowing they will be replaced sharpish ?

Top keeper, arl arse centre half and a proven striker alongside Wilson.

Their keeper is half decent.
Best bet is accepting they will go down and buy players without relegation clauses. Have a feeling they will spend badly. These guys may get there eventually but they aren’t the next Man City for a very long time.

It really is a real difficult situation they are in being desperate to move forward quickly to become one of the big noises in European football to the reality that they have a very good chance of being relegated this season and all the problems that will bring. Not sure the new owners have the football knowledge to sort out that conundrum. I have a feeling that all the recent euphoria will be replaced by abject misery come the end of the season

Asmir Begovic, Michael Keane and Cenk Tosun fit the bill nicely. £90 million and they're all yours, my Geordie friends!
