Relegation

[street end]

We can stay up by the skin of our teeth if we approach home games like the City game then in away games just try and keep the score as low as possible, but Im not sure how much I trust this group of players. I do worry about the summer though.

Understand where your coming from but I think we need to approach the home games like we did against Leeds and the away games like we did against City.

Yeah I agree it was more about the effort levels tbh, I worry the damage has already been done though sadly.

Thank God we never got Eddie Howe eh? What a disaster that would've been if you'd have read anything on here. An Everton supporting manager who had remarkable achievements at a tiny club. Replicating it at side who are and have been garbage with a couple of smart acquisitions.

A fantastic manager.

I like Frank, but his record ain't a patch on Howe, who continues to do a fantastic job.

We have to get behind the team and we really do need to get 6 points from the next two games and take it from there, these games are there to be won and the crowd will definitely have a part to play, atmosphere against City etc definitely helped the team I think.

Those players have maybe 3/4 games like that in them top whack per season.

We need to shift them out by the skip load this summer and get a few bargain basement Championship players in with the stomach for a fight and try and fast track academy players.

It's desperate as a plan but it'll be our only hope of holding relegation back until Moshiri sells up.

Anyway, relegation will put us in a competition where at some point we should be in a position to win. I doubt that will be next year though.

It will make a change to fighting for seventh to fourteenth every year. It was all becoming so boring.

 

[Bluestar]

No question about it. We;ll be relegated in the next few seasons, for sure.

We will be. There is worse to come from this squad and the biggest offenders are not leaving any time soon.

Brentford v Burnley. What’s the best result for us then? With our games in hand on Brentford, I guess we want them to win?

A draw but I just don't want to see us slip into that relegation zone

Hence why I went for Brentford win

given how bad we can be, i think it's better for teams below us to lose every game possible. As if finishing 15th would be different to finishing 17th

I have to admit Inwasnt convinced by Howe myself but in Franks Defence Howe took the job in November and and more tie to access the situation. He had a pretty average start at best but the Dan Burn and Trippier signings in the window have helped Newcastle alot. Frank came in at the very end of the window and hasn’t had much time. We’ve just got to stay up and then see how he shapes the team.

3 draws, 4 losses, 1 win.

Those were Howe’s results up to the January transfer window (excluding the embarrassing cup defeat also) where they then made key signings that have changed their team.

Let’s not act like he’s the messiah just yet.

Shame we don't play the version of Newcastle we should of played in December next week

All eyes on that Brentford - Burnley fixture this afternoon. I just can't seem to decide what's the best outcome for us is in that match?
