Thank you Mike… for the wisdom, for the laughs. You did it so one day, someone will go, ‘There goes Mike Ashley. I must remember to thank him’. Wanker.
🚨 EXCL: Aston Villa in process of finalising move to sign Johan Manzambi from Freiburg. Newcastle United had agreement with #SCF but #NUFC lacked player approval. 20yo Swiss midfielder wants #AVFC & deal now accelerating towards conclusion @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/UTfbtXcSaH
If Bruno has told #NUFC he wants to go to Arsenal BEFORE Arsenal have actually contacted Newcastle, he can get to fuck anyways.
Take decent money. Get him gone.

@TheFootballFeed@TheFootyFeed This was said a while back wasn’t it and I like the guy, but he’s saying more and more daft shit as time goes on isn’t he.
@geordiejosh You can’t outgrow a team you’re not performing to your best in. His poor form is part of the problem we’ve had this season along with others.
He’s a quality player, but if this is all true he doesn’t give a fuck about #NUFC, so why should we give a fuck about him. Get him gone.
We stretch them every time we get the ball into the channels. But Osula’s stopped chasing so we’ve stopped putting it there.
Get Joey on early second half for transitions and get at them again. #NUFC
@HollyRoeder1@NUFC Aged 17, I was one of the lads to be one of the players your dad coached to get his Pro License as #NUFC manager.
I pestered him for days for his jumper. On the last day when he called me back, gave me his jumper and asked me to “look after it”. Still have it!
What a guy!
PENALTY GATE
I shouldn’t even need to post about this given the great win we just got but it’s impossible to ignore given the reports that came out earlier about Woltemade considering his future, seeing these images it’s very obvious he’s not 100% happy.
And who can blame him? He’s the Germany number 9 and Eddie Howe is playing him in midfield after dropping him as a striker earlier this season. And let’s be absolutely clear he’s playing as a centre midfielder NOT as a 10 despite many wrong opinions on this.
That alone is disheartening and damaging to his career given his role for Germany. It’s quite baffling how the Newcastle fan base are just overlooking this as if it’s normal to sign a number 9 and play him as a centre midfielder. Imagine Sesko or Ektike doing this? It’s mental. We signed him for a record fee & Howe was absolutely clear he was the main striker.
Anthony Gordon was stat padding against these farmers with ease, people will say that’s grounds for him to continue up front despite the piss poor opposition and track record over the last year but obviously this was a very weak opponent. 1 goal in open play in 13 MONTHS against premier league opposition, 4 goals in 45 minutes against a pub team - great night but it doesn’t disprove the last 13 months.
Gordon bagged a hat-trick and refused to give the 2nd penalty to Woltemade, after both Woltemade & Trippier asked him to do so. We were out of sight & Gordon came across as someone who couldn’t give 2 shits about anyone but himself despite Woltemade playing a role that sacrificed for the team. Not the first time Gordon looked like he didn’t want to help Woltemade this season. The issues between the two are now clear as day.
Woltemade looked absolutely GUTTED after the second penalty as seen in the image. He knows as a “striker” he’s judged on goals despite Eddie playing him in midfield. This was a perfect opportunity to give him a role up front and get more chances and Eddie still stuck him in midfield. A vote of no confidence…
Nobody could blame Woltemade for leaving this summer as his career is going backwards under Eddie Howe and that’s a FACT. #NUFC
Not many better scenes in football than 9 mags running full speed towards the corner flag chasing the match winner.
I’ve watched this so many times just for this moment, man. #NUFC
Torreira has a tattoo of his hometown club, Fray Bentos. This is where he started his youth career.
Back in 2022, he even joined the ultras for a match.
Happy birthday, Lucas Torreira! 🇺🇾🧨
First goal comes cos we just amble out the fucking box with only Murphy pressing and rightly being livid about it.
Second goal comes cos Tonali continues to play like he hasn’t been arsed for months, and now we know why.
Elanga and Ramsey change this game. Get em on.
