@NBCSportsSoccer Had zero bearing on the game. Just a sideshow.

PURE PASSION. 📸 Newcastle fans showed out with an unbelievable display before kickoff against Sunderland in the Tyne-Wear Derby.

Fair play but what everyone need to understand is that the club and the fans prioritise different things. Derby = #1 for a lot of fans. Not even in the top 3 for the club. CL first.

Shortermism tonight. Swapping manager today would have zero effect this season. Take the emotion out of it. Mackems were low priority. Look at it at the end of the season and maybe our finishing place in the PL without 2 games a week + CL and cup performance looks ok.

@285tb The is there better than EH out there because looking at other clubs. There is a round of jokers going about.

@285tb On the other hand. Do we back EH get his 1st choices in this summer and give him another go? Questions on if he can do 2 games a week given we’ve struggled both times we are in Europe and EH seems to know how to run a 1 game a week team?

Eddie Howe’s foot off the pedal mags. I’m a huge EH fan but this is the first time I’m starting to see question it. Indefensible today. Not sure what the answer is #NUFC

Classic manager craic. But when players cannot pass a ball 20 yards and cannot clear their first man. Appreciate him taking the hit but any manager in the world can’t stop Willock running out out of play. The noise tonight it emotional shortermism.

@285tb Was it?

@FatCabaye A new manager. It was obvious back in December.

Shortermism of our fans is astounding. Changing the manager now you turn into the merry go round of spurs and Forest. Taking a step back, Sunderland is our lowest priority. Get into Europe, make a decent account of ourselves in the CL and get 1st choices in the transfer window.

@SRDNUFC @CraigHope_DM Read between the lines though.

@CraigHope_DM If not a single member of the press pack took him up on those comments. Especially about technical delivery then please hand in your press pass.

⚫️ Eddie Howe on Sunderland defeat 🗣️ "This was very, very painful. But it was most painful for our supporters, and it’s them I think about now. There is no excuse, when you have not performed & have not delivered. We have not done our jobs well enough. I understand the reaction at the end of the game. My first thought as a leader is to front up & absorb it. You can use whatever word you want, I won’t challenge it. The only thing we can do is come back stronger from it. 🗣️ "Our technical delivery was off today. We missed three midfielders who would have given us control. It left us unbalanced. The game became transitional & we made it too much like they wanted it. We lost control in the second half. 🗣️ "They were two poor goals to concede but that’s not a one-off for us. We have defended poorly since the turn of the year"

Top, top effort from the lads tonight! Refs are a joke. OSSSSSSUUUUULLLLLLAAAAAAAAAA #NUFC

130,000th man. Clear off! #NUFC

@paulmcdermottt Exactly. Would be a disaster. Club and players need to come out and back Howe.

@FatCabaye If it was up to the clowns on here we would end up with Mourinho in the dugout.

Feel sorry for Howe, losing the best striker in the world and not getting suitable replacements, depleted squad and a horrendous run of games. He’s fighting a losing battle. #NUFC

That trips is still to be beaten. First European away… class!

Metalist Kharkiv away 2013 #nufc

We don’t do things the easy way do we? Think I’m going to have a hearty #NUFC
