@LiamJKennedy23 Disappointing, but tells us everything we need to know. He sets the tempo from the front & we are a better team with him in it. Sad to see him leave but let's make sure we get a huge fee for him!
For those asking why he's in the squad, he can still affect results!
A week tomorrow we will be paying tribute to a club legend ahead of his final game in black and white at St, James’ Park.
Every Newcastle United fan knows how important he has been and it is our opportunity to say thank you.
Help us give him a send off in style:

🚨 Eddie Howe on the absence from NUFC XI of Nick Woltemade & Yoane Wissa...
🗣️ “Like with every player not playing they have to show their worth on the training ground and I think that’s their shop window.
🗣️ "For me to pick them is how they train and how they commit to the training, and how much they are prepared to put individual disappointment to the side for the team to then come back fighting again. It’s a gradual process, but I believe in both players still.
🗣️ "I’ve got no issue with either of them. I think they’ve got unique qualities to offer the team but it’s got to be on merit and deserved.”
@LiamJKennedy23 Good. Don't let loyalty be your downfall again Eddie. Accept players have been playing above themselves until recently and move them on! Eddie Howes black and white f***ING army.
Right. Let's leave Howe be. Season's over. We gave cups & CL a good punt. Always on the back foot missing top summer targets & Isak sale.
Let's hope for good transfer window & pre-season.
Howe deserves next year. If things still stale after, yes, managerial change.

A league high 25 points lost from winning positions for NUFC now this season.
They are soft. Gone is the nastiness & smarts to defend a lead.
For Brian Brobbey last time out, see Jean-Philippe Mateta this time. They can be bullied. Mentality minnows.
@CraigHope_DM Will back EH every time. Adamant there is no better man for the job. Block out the noise & get to work on putting it right. We want to see you combat the reoccurring issues. I.e 2nd half drop off, late goals conceded, opposition no.10 having the freedom of the park.
@SkySportsPL People are damn right to be angry and ask questions of EH but have some perspective and let’s show him we’re different. He’s having a rough spell, BACK HIM! #NUFC
Chelsea players have decided to do a huddle around Todd Boehly's cheque book before the match against PSG at Stamford Bridge in order to 'Respect the £10m fine'
Interesting that in the Everton points deduction verdict the Premier League said “A financial penalty for a club that enjoys the support of a wealthy owner is not a sufficient penalty” and that “the requirements of deterrence, vindication of compliant clubs, and the protection of the integrity of the sport demand a sporting sanction in the form of a points deduction’.
Presumably the Chelsea fine (which ultimately is just a deduction from what billion dollar Clearlake will pay to billionaire Abramovich from the £150m held back at the deal date) is then neither punishment, a deterrent or protecting the integrity of the sport?
If I was an Everton or Forest fan would not be happy with this outcome.
£47.5m is more than double Everton's breach that led to a Premier League record sanction of 10 points being deducted (it was recalculated to 6 on appeal)
While this is a different charge, the commission said EFC "gained no sporting advantage" but still agreed a deduction.
🟥Peter Bankes the referee tonight.
Was also on VAR duty when NUFC were denied a penalty against Chelsea in December, which saw the club lodge an official complaint.
Latest documents filed in New York show that Manchester United have £777 million of borrowings, of which £295 million is due within one year, and owes £422 million in transfer fee instalments, of which £238 million is due within one year. #Glazernomics
🗣️ Eddie Howe on Anthony Gordon as striker...
"Anthony's legs, his desire to press, makes the team play better. It had a really fluid look to it. We wanted to play with a fluid frontline. We wanted to press aggressively. You need quick & mobile players (to do that)."
@caseysean51 We look so much more fluid going forward with Gordon playing through the middle. Solid performance, good result & on to the next. P.S.. I fucking love Sir Edward of Howe.
