@Mickjameshughes @RobThompsonNUFC And Bristol… truly dreadful there!

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@SundryTomatoes Though I’d follow that up by saying Oppenheimer was much better in addressing this. Think there was just more opportunity with Odyssey, but cant imagine the studios wanted a 6hr film!!

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@SundryTomatoes Totally agree with this, and it’s my biggest gripe with Nolan films. Visually incredible and atmospherically brilliant, but lacking the depth and the challenge of the human element. Always find the characters to be pretty shallow.

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@timos373 @DomScurr Botman was utterly horrendous today. He is not reliable enough across a season at premier league level.

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@NUFCdiscussion Was at the match and he was definitely one of the better players, who always looked to play forward. As someone else mentioned though, he’ll need to get a bit stronger and more robust.

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@MsiDouglas Agree with all this. Think everyone comes out of this situation pretty pleased.

Does this change the talk around Bruno at all, Mark?

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@LukeEdwardsTele Is there the impression that Bruno is open to or subtly pushing for the move? Or is he more relaxed about it?

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@AdamP1242 Totally agree. Has there been any signing that Howe has put straight in, other than when forced to due to injury/availability?

Jaouen is 20 years old coming from the second division in France. There is no way Howe puts his trust in him from the off.

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@MsiDouglas It’s a good opportunity for the club to show how they can handle these situations too, as the whole ‘holding him against his will’ narrative played out with Isak, regardless of how true it was.

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@kendallrowanx I love him, and really want him to turn it around, but I can’t get my head round his awful in game management. The substitutions are clear for all to see time and time again, and he doesn’t make them for some reason. I don’t think that changes with another season unfortunately.

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@NUFCTalkRadio It’s bollocks though, isn’t it. If Tonali or Gordon say they want out at the end of August, and there’s a club looking to buy them, they’ll go. That’s the way it is. Club needs to not be naive and just get on with the window instead of briefing pointless ultimatums.

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@NUFCEdge Was calling it from the 35th minute; how he lasted until the 94th is shocking. That will be Howe’s undoing, his in game management is awful.

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@manxpie86 Murphy was dreadful all game. Every choice he made was the wrong one, stray balls etc. Again, how he’s still first choice this long after the takeover, it’s very underwhelming.

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@LiamTaylorMade @NUFCLC Dreadful all match. Whenever he had a choice to make, he always made the wrong one. Real drop off this season…

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@CraigHope_DM Craig, who is the person asking the questions in the Q&A? Is it a Newcastle press staff member, or external media?

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@CraigHope_DM Craig, on the business front, is the club a little behind the curve? This is an obvious appointment from a business and financial capability standpoint, and I’m surprised it’s only being identified now. Is it the club, or football as a business, that’s a little less mature?

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@CharIieBennett Don think there’s anything wrong with this from Tonali. He also had a sudden exit from his boyhood club that he loved, so I can imagine that has impacted his way of thinking too.

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@JB4t00n @MsiDouglas Seems like it is Semenyo. Ben Jacob’s story on it earlier today too. Someone’s agent is briefing… 👀

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@howaythalad @MsiDouglas I’m surprised PIF and/or others haven’t gotten more creative with this stuff before. You see it more with American sports, through indirect sponsorship deals etc.

[Harbour Company @CompanyHarbour]

@JB4t00n @MsiDouglas Semenyo possibly? Though I’m not sure if he was nearing the end of his old deal?…
