@StevenM91505424 @SupportersNufc No you aren’t 😂

@Jim21093 @SupportersNufc I am correct

In all the years of running NUFC pages, I’ve never seen the fanbase so divided. The phrase getting thrown around now is “happy clapper” — just for backing a manager who’s literally made history. 🏆 Let’s not forget… Eddie Howe delivered our first major trophy in most of our lifetimes, and TWO Champions League qualifications. In today’s Premier League, that’s no small feat given the quality of loads of teams. Those calling for him to go — fair enough - but remember that stance if a replacement comes in and doesn’t hit the ground running… because we’ve been here before. The grass isn’t always greener. Long-term fans will remember how quickly things can unravel (Bobby Robson etc). On the flip side, you can’t even offer constructive criticism now without being labelled a “mackem” or ‘not a real supporter’. That’s not right either. Truth is — this season in the league hasn’t been good enough by our standards. Eddie Howe, like the players, should be open to criticism. If you judge purely on this season, you can understand the chants for him to leave as 14th really ain’t acceptable especially given the spend. But if you look at his full time here, has he not earned enough credit in the bank for one poor campaign 🤷‍♂️. We don’t tell fans what to think — that’s the beauty of football and want this to be a platform where people can share their range of opinions. But right now, the divide in the Newcastle United fanbase feels bigger than it has in years. One thing should unite us though… we all want Howe to turn it around asap — and we all want the best for Newcastle United. 🏴🏳️🏴 #nufc #newcastleunited #fblifestyle #eddieHowe #nufcfans AI image

@cjon63 @oldheatonian It was, he then let the exact same thing happen and we nearly lost the exact same goal about 2 minutes later. He wasn’t even engaging with Rayan he was just letting him dribble at him.

@oldheatonian Definitely not just Hall’s fault as you say but poor defending by him. Made it far too easy for winger to get to by line

First thing to notice is once we lose possession, how deep & passive we fell into a defensive line. Then watch Botman provide no support to Hall. Ditto Barnes. Botman’s poor positioning see’s Thiaw drawn weakly to front post. Tino fails to get across his man EH & JT blame Hall

@Giniesta10 I couldn’t give a flying fuck, Botman has been utterly dogshit in most games he’s played this season. His risk reward at the weekend was literally falling on the ball and nearly losing an absolute comedy goal. He’s not who he was.

@Jim21093 Botman consistently average over 90% passing accuracy whilst trying to play more progressive passes compared to BDB. I don't mind the odd poor pass, no risk, no reward

This is something we have rarely seen, central overload - Botman played it centrally here, I can guarantee that BDB would play it sideways - 4v3 " Box midfield shape" with Tino inverting next to Miley at the base or the box, Ramsey & Tonali at the top of the box shape #NUFC

@KinderCopUk @DarrelBirkett Where in the league were we when Bruce was sacked pal?

@DarrelBirkett Their worst seasons weren't anywhere near as bad as Eddie's mate

Howe cult saying he shouldn't be sacked because Newcastle have been finishing higher than their squad wage ranking. But look at this... Bruce: 17th in wages → 12th finish Pardew: 11th in wages → 5th finish Howe: 7th in wages → currently 14th #NUFC

@YSLRNUFC The vast majority of the players have been praised like fuck by most of the fan base the last few years 😂😂

How come the players get blamed by parts of the fanbase for what’s going on at the moment, yet when we have done well over the last few seasons it’s always the manager that takes the plaudits? #nufc

@StevenM91505424 @SupportersNufc What in fucks name are you talking about? The “older” players have literally all had their roles lessened.

@SupportersNufc The reason people are annoyed with Eddie is not the league position, or even dare i say it the performances. They are annoyed at him for the way he handled the summer xfers. The way he panders to the older players and has stubbornly refused to “move on” from the 25 team

@PutTheShpudsOn @SupportersNufc I mean that’s literally not true

@SupportersNufc It's not just that we're 14th that has everyone so pissed off, it's the lack of willingness to do something about it, every game it's the same formation, same subs at the same time, same tactics, same style of play, same rehashed talking points after every game. It's insanity.

@jbyron1994 @eap101 @NUFCJordd *was a long time ago. He’s won a Conference League in the last 8 years.

@eap101 @NUFCJordd Absolute serial winner. And don't give me what's he won lately. Howes won a league cup in his whole lifetime bar the tinpot promotions. Makes me giggle that toon fans turn there nose up at Jose 😂

I’ll just leave this here for the Jose haters 🫣

@Nufc_kai39 @NUFCJordd He’d have lost most of the support by December I reckon.

@NUFCJordd No he won’t. He’s shite he’s past it

Jose Mourihno will LITERALLY reignite St James Park 😭

@NUFCJordd Leave that as well?

@addressthetoon @thompamoo You’d think you’d post a less fucking idiotic stat about Howe then eh

@thompamoo I've been a fan since 1992. Hope that's okay.

Bournemouth have signed a manager with a 57.58% career average win ratio vs Eddie Howe's 43.8% #nufc

@mynameisaaron88 Shit for a year?

“It’s just one bad season”. It’s been shit for a full year. If I underachieved at my job for a full year with ZERO signs of improvement I’d be gone. If I invested substantial funds then refused to use half of what I’d bought and the other half didn’t work. I’d be gone. #nufc

@StevenM91505424 @NUFC360 😂😂

@NUFC360 This is why Eddie may need to go. We would be absolutely bang on for Europe spot this year had he the balls to stand up to gordon the complainer. Instead he dropped Woltemade

🇩🇪 Woltemade has shown what he can do upfront when he signed for Newcastle. Do we need to see him return as striker for the rest of the season? #NUFC

@nevz202 @NUFC360 How in fucks name is what you’re saying anything to do with what I’m saying to you 😂😂😂

@Jim21093 @NUFC360 I don't get ppl that are like this to players At our team fucking support them

@Sport_180 Our last run in the CL was nothing like now. 😂😂 We didn’t actually really ever have a squad fit for a CL season then lost one of our players to a gambling ban 😂😂

"Fergie tactic #EddieHowe must copy to save #Newcastle United job before it's too late" #NUFC chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football… My comments: One of the best pieces I’ve read on ChronicleLive. However, the symptoms were visible two years ago; the refusal to rotate and the over-reliance on a fixed XI led directly to the injury crises we've seen. Now, we are seeing those same issues on a much larger scale. I have immense respect for Eddie Howe, but that shouldn’t grant him a free pass. Football is an evolving game, and stagnation is a risk. For the health of Newcastle United—and for Howe’s own career—he has to adapt. Personally, I suspect a total rebuild under Howe would be more difficult than parting ways and starting fresh with a new philosophy—perhaps someone like Oliver Glasner, who has shown how quickly a clear, modern tactical identity can transform a squad.

@nevz202 @NUFC360 Aye great, again. You know a lot of those points came when Woltemade was taken off yes? 😂😂

@Jim21093 @NUFC360 I have said said since the second session on Eddie he is reliant on speed and not footballers

@Y2Craig Make your statement make sense You’re arguing he has control over signings AND He would blame a player HE signed What a fucking idiotic thing to say 😂😂

"he will give his assessment of what's gone wrong and what needs to change". Probably blame it all on Woltemade then suggest he needs even more control over transfers in future.

@nevz202 @NUFC360 You know a lot of those “points” came in games AFTER Woltemade had been taken off though aye 😂😂

@Jim21093 @NUFC360 This argues Eddie lacks football IQ, relying on "track runners" rather than skilled players. By sidelining Nick who was winning points but doesn't fit his rigid system Eddie is accused of sacrificing the team's success for his own tactical stubbornness and obsession with pace.
