@Kevisanotter @NUFCLC The expectation and declared ambition of the club is to be number 1 in the world man. For God's sake. Quite obviously unobtainable but they're the ones saying it. All the while launching prices up. Incredible how many people refuse to see what is in front of their face.

@BettingThePitch Is that the Southgate whose team scored the most goals in a world cup from an England team?

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@OSB9_ @Culturecams Bigger than beating our oldest rival? Bigger than getting to two finals? Fuck me.

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@NUFCLC Why were they so believing? Why would the player come to Newcastle over Liverpool? They seem to never have a sense of what's waiting around the corner. Either overly credulous or insufficiently questioning.

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@peter199108 Was genuinely stunned to hear Alex and crew on the TF Pod after the Fulham game saying top 5 is the aim next season. It worries me that people are still blind to things and thinking in those terms. As it stands we will struggle massively.

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@Slaughts_1 Left a load of points on the table during the first few games last year too, because they hadn't sorted the striker situation. Even if you were to follow Craig's point of giving it time, everything has to be in place for the first game.

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@RichySouthern I'm more concerned about why they don't seem to be able to read people. Why can't they sense what the agent/player/club is doing? What are they not picking up in the conversations? Why do they seem so oblivious to the player's reps waiting on better offers?

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@richysmith100 @IvXv @NUFC360 @MsiDouglas Stop with the excuses. We've lost out on two outfield players already. Last summer was humiliating, this is on the same path. Wake up.

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@NUFCLC The fanbase is largely aligned though. They'll blame this on PSR and how unfair the world is.

@CraigHope_DM What rating would you give this fella?

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@NufcMags93 @ZDiddy___ @MattyTJW It isn't a comparison? How can you be so thick? No one is saying SB is the better manager. It's describing the scale of disaster that this season has been. He finished in the same position having spent a lot less, with a worse squad. Sorry if that's too much for you.

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@leecarty8 In all the recent weeks/months, none of the Eddie-in lot have made a present/future tense argument. Nothing about what they're seeing now.

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@50pMillionaire @_laurennn92 What are you on about? Our budget dwarfed the teams we beat.

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@50pMillionaire @_laurennn92 We did not have a fantastic run in Europe. Can we please get a grip. We got to the exact point an English team should get to as a minimum.

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@sinceApril1970 Why are they? Any English team in the tier 2/3 European competitions should get to the very end. Why don't you get in the real world?

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@davidm176 @cjhhhh21 @MarcSDuffy WE ARE IN EXACTLY THE SAME POSITION AS HALL AND SHEPHERD. A series of mid-table positions under then with KD, RG and BR before the upturn.

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@Neilfarrington You're almost there Neil. Almost.

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@MarcSDuffy Remember where we were

[Ben Tobin @BenMTobin]

@JakeJackmann Of course, I disagree with a fair few. But a lot of the anger on here is basically: "Player I like that plays for my team, should be in over player I don't like who plays for team I don't like."
