@NUFC Love the man and the memories but the marriage has turned stale and unproductive. Leave as a legend EH

Eddie Howe on this afternoon's game at Selhurst Park 🎙️

@hol40900 @GlennMCcready The claim 'migrants built this country' oversimplifies UK history. Core infra like railways, roads, ports, sewage, grid were designed, funded, and built overwhelmingly by British domestic labour and engineers over centuries. Migrants (esp. Irish) played vital supplementary roles.

Paul Nowak: “A coked up street thug like Tommy Robinson. A tax avoider like Richard Tice. A grifter like Nigel Farage.” Migrant families built this country. They just exploit it. Tax the billionaires. Fund the NHS. Unite against hate. That’s how we win. ✊

@KingsyAVFC Think you've overpriced Guimaraes and underpriced Barkley

My ideal Villa summer window SELL Buendia- £50million Bailey- £40 million Watkins- £85 million Barkley- £30 million Digne- £45 million BUY Lacroix- £10 million Jaiden Anthony- £3 million Igor Thiago- £20 million Xavi Simons- £15 million Bruno Guimaraes- £25million #AVFC

@NUFC Sponsor his UEFA Pro license ASAP and get him in the academy, with fast track to senior squad mngmt

Kieran Trippier appreciation post 👏

@noisingoff @juneslater17 He worked in the labour govt for years and is now a labour MP for Swansea! He's been left all his life.. On the topic of funding, I can't imagine it would come from anywhere that isn't a boomer/ doesn't benefit the boomer generation. I assume you haven't watched Teflon's videos

@frogonthatyne @juneslater17 Torsten Bell in the Govt Cabinet came from the Resolution Foundation ( as did a few others) Check out the smug,self satisfied cretan policies now and tell me if you think he is "Left Leaning". They produce stats to favour the views of whoever/whatever is paying them .

I'm often called a boomer, it's meant as a slight and usually comes from younger males who think we had it easy. They're posting from their double glazed homes with the heating on Fridges, multiple TVs, gym memberships, and they love playing on their X Box keeping their working hours under 21 per week so they can claim benefit The reality of being a boomer. We had parents who served in a war and suffered a further 10 years of food rationing so breast milk was scarce due to malnutrition. Being born in a cold damp house heated by a coal fire, your dad's army coat was used as surplus bedding. Vegetables were seasonal as were childhood diseases. We fought them all off Measles, Mumps, chicken pox and even scarlet fever. The countryside was a world away, and you only saw grass if someone in The street had a car and took you there as a weekend treat. We didn't need a computer to occupy our Sunny Delight hyper active minds, the journey, looking out of the window was the treat. We walked everywhere, We usually had just one fat kid in school not a full class of them with their allergies and syndromes. We had one special outfit known as our ' Best Clothes' and these were looked after like the robes of an ordained dignitary. Hygiene wasn't even a thing, there were no bathrooms, the toilet was at the bottom of the yard heated by a paraffin lamp to stop the pipes freezing. The only hot water was the kitchen sink with a water heater known as a geyser . Used frugally to keep costs down. Teachers smoked in schools, everyone smelled of nicotine. Windows weren't opened till May as heat was precious. Often the bills outweighed the income and were juggled for payment . No automatic washing machines or dryers, mangles were in the back yard to squeeze out the excess water after a dolly tub wash . You might have to research these items. If you wanted to learn you had to read books, there was no Google short cut . Communication was someone five doors down who might have a phone you could use as long as you took a threepenny bit to pay for it. The operator would put you through!. You didn't follow your dreams, you didn't dream, you just took a job to bring money into the house and tip up to your parents to help with the bills. No spa days no film star beauty treatments no weekends away or hen nights abroad, two weeks in Blackpool once a year if you were lucky. This went on till you could afford to start your own dreary journey of a life as a working class Brit in the very early 60s. This is the same generation now helping fund kids and grandkids education or house purchases because you've blown it on take aways, tattoos, designer clothes, stag nights that last longer than family holidays, and other such self absorbed bollox. Boomers have usually contributed at least 50 years of a 42 hour week so they can have time to themselves before some health issues steals what's left of their lives. So if choose to use social media mind your own business and get up your own end!

@noisingoff @juneslater17 His research is actually derived mostly from his newer role at the resolution foundation - a left leaning social policy think tank. Sorry their empirical data usurps your opinion- not diminishing your personal experience...

@frogonthatyne @juneslater17 I know who/what he is Teflon Head was an affectionate term for him. But he wasn't & isn't always right.A "generational study" doesn't go to the ground.They got nothing for nothing and the harder they worked the luckier they got. They ensured they young fared better . No H& A 🤣

@noisingoff @juneslater17 He's talking about the broad macro scenario, backed with empirical data. I don't believe you're exaggerating at all, however you have to look at broad data sets for generational enquiry. The data doesn't lie and Teflon head is a highly qualified boomer with honesty and humility

@frogonthatyne @juneslater17 I remember "Teflon Head" as he was called and like him but lived experience is subjective and his isn't mine.(Or the majority) Info on paper from stats is not the same.

@geordiejosh They're a great small club with solid, positive fans that enjoy brief moments of success, just like us last season.. Fans appreciate proper football and they think highly of the toon.. Weird vent man

I’m happy at Palace’s downfall to be honest. That bellend Parish thought he was the dogs bollocks rejecting £60m for Guehi, ended up taking £20m, now embarrassing themselves in Europe, sold all their best players, players refusing to play, manager wants off. Good stuff 👏

@BBCSport BBC "Verify" clearly not integrated into BBC sports journalism... he's publicly expressed his admiration for Newcastle but you're pasting a bot account from Germany 🙈🙈🙈 Unfollowing

Woltemade is reportedly unhappy at Newcastle and would welcome a move back to Stuttgart or Bayern Munich. Read more ➡️ bbc.co.uk/sport/football…

@CraigHope_DM EH have to change the 4-3-3 domestically. Too predictable... looks great in Europe but need 4-2-3-1 to make best of your squad in EPL

🗣️ Eddie Howe following defeat by Brentford... “There’s a harsh reality for me. I’ve got to think long & hard, not about my effort because I can’t question that about myself, but I think I’ve got to work better, I’ve got to do more. I’ve got to take full responsibility for everything you see on the pitch, & I’ve got to work out solutions. I think that’s for me to do. "Then, of course, I have to ask the same from the players. I have to ask them to be really honest with themselves & look at their best level, & judge how they’re playing against that now, in this current moment. I don’t think there’s too many that can say they’re playing towards their best. I think that then gives us growth to improve"

@2001TJSahara @VladTheInflator David Willetts is the voice of reason on boomer intergenerational inequality. A distinguished boomer himself

@VladTheInflator So much Boomer wealth envy in this country. And I'm Gen X.

@NUFC Go full knuckles 1s half with best team. If we're no level.. 5 subs a HT give the bairns a chance

Eddie Howe on the Carabao Cup semi-final second leg: "Part of the Liverpool performance, for the first 30/35 minutes was very strong. Against Paris we had a strong performance all the way through, barring the first 20 minutes. Put those two together and we've got an outstanding chance. Firstly we have to try and win the game. If we have that mentality that we're going to try and get all the disciplines of our game in a good place and attack the game, let's see what we can do."

@Miagy__ @Magpie24_7 What's your rev growth ideas big man/ lady

@frogonthatyne @Magpie24_7

🇨🇦 David Hopkinson on the club’s plan to become a major footballing force by 2030: “By 2030, I see this club (Newcastle United) being in the debate about being the top club in the world. That’s where I see us by 2030 - and that kind of progress doesn’t take as long as you might think. What it takes is clarity of conviction. First off, we need to be totally aligned about the fact that that’s what we want to do. We have to have the courage to ignore those that doubt us, and even those that laugh at us, because there will be some." "I've done it with a total underperformer, and that's definitely not what Newcastle is. Newcastle is already good. I've worked at a club that was really bad, lost all the time. In 2014, we lost just about as bad as you can. In 2019, we were having a parade. So, it's eminently doable, but it takes that clarity, conviction and commitment." "We want more cups. That is how you define success. Eddie is special. My job is to help Eddie succeed in his job. Can Newcastle win the Premier League? Yeah, of course. Why not? Our job is to set ourselves up to be perennial contenders." "This is a tough league, and the correlation between points earned and revenue is undeniable, so, again, so much of this is self-help and doing everything we can to try to increase our ability to compete by driving revenues. I love the reference to 2030 because if it's not time-bound, then it's fantasy. It's where do we need to get to by the end of 2025? Where by 2026? 2027? Where are we ahead, where are we behind? What's our mitigation plan? How are we adjusting things?" "What I will not tell you is that we have written the plan for every granular element that's going to happen between now and 2030. But what we have got is a highly specific direction of travel and key milestones that need to be hit. We're not going to win by accident. We're going to win because we've been thoughtful and strategic about the organisation we've constructed, whose sole purpose is to win." "We have some gaps. Very shortly, we'll be in the marketplace looking for a chief strategy officer. We'll be looking for a chief marketing officer. With Pete's departure, we're going to take the opportunity to think about whether we should have someone focusing exclusively on revenue. I want to make sure that we're recruiting world-class talent." "I had two conversations yesterday with folks that are saying, 'Look, I see where this is going, I want to be part of it, it's a rocket ship, I see that, and I want to get on that rocket ship'. We're going to be very thoughtful and disciplined about some areas where we're not world-class today. I'll just use one example. Our digital ecosystem today is not world-class. We're not going to achieve our ultimate ambition without world-class digital and data capabilities." "We are not well structured today to be in the same conversation as some of these top clubs, Madrid, Barça, We have to close that gap. Madrid have the number one revenue and a lot of that is digital. It drives revenue. When I was there, they offered eight different languages. Regional content is very important to them. We have to look at our global following growth. We have to grow our revenues. If we get this right, most of our fans will never come to St James’ Park." There may be bumps in the road on the journey, but the ambition towards greatness is there! #NUFC #NUFCNews #Newcastle #EPL #PremierLeague

@AdamP1242 He has a clear vision. Growth markets are east Asia. Plenty of strong Japanese and Korean players to recruit. Hard workers + technical. Couple recruitment w world classs data/ tech strategy in region... Tottenham shirts everywhere in Seoul last 10 years

David Hopkinson is the real deal at Newcastle United btw, was incredibly impressed with his comments about the club despite some of it being bad news #NUFC

@NUFC360 425-0 if we play 433 formation 0-1 win if we play 4231

It’s taken 7 games, highs & lows, twists & turns and so much more. It now comes down to the last game and a visit to a place which deserves some revenge dealt to it. Let us know your score prediction! #NUFC #UCL

@simiafc Livramento is way off mate

@agbnufc_ Need to meet it head on Keegan style.. 4-2-3-1 otherwise we get battered

Can't believe it's actually PSG (A), Liverpool (A), Man City (A), in the space of a week man. If we can all come out of this not blocking each other on here we've done well.

@NUFC Rambo Trippier Botman Thiaw Hall Tonali ( Bruno 60 mins) Miley Barnes Woltemade (JJ 60 mins) Osula ( Gordon 60 mins) Wissa

Eddie Howe on Joey and Bruno: "Joe won’t make the game, he has had a scan, we don’t think it is a bad injury, but we think he will be out for a few weeks. He will miss a few games. Our other Brazilian, Bruno, is with us, and we will know more in the next few hours."
