It's fans like this who are making the atmosphere around Newcastle United toxic.😡
He's excited because we've sacked one of the greatest managers we've had, who improved every player he coached. If he was that bad why does everyone want our squad ? he took us on when others wouldn't as we looked doomed for relegation.
So being in the Champions League 2 years out of 4, reaching the last 16 of Europe, wasn't exciting? Reaching 2 finals in 4 years and winning our 1st trophy wasn't exciting?
But picking an unproven manager who has no experience at a club like Newcastle or managing in the biggest league in the world makes him feel like a 13-year-old. I am in disbelief
I get sent videos daily from friends and rival fans who support other clubs saying our fans are embarrassing and its videos from these influencers who only appeared once we were taken over ! spreading negativity and calling out the owners , the manager the players, and the worst thing is, the outside world actually think this is what a newcastle fan is!
These influencers only want an audience and clicks to raise their profile. But the damage this does to the club and the image it portrays to the outside world is a cancer to the club, and by following them just gives them a platform to do it.
This is not just aimed at this person, as there are others who the club, for some reason, has supported initially and given them a voice who are now using it against them.
If they fully understood what the club is about, use your media talent and if we are losing and need a pick up, use your influence to promote and support the team and manager rather than creating a dark cloud for others to laugh at.
Too many fans arrived after the takeover, seeing the riches, and seem to think success is an overnight guarantee because it happened at Man City. Maybe the owners even thought it would be easier, but as we have found out, nobody wants us to succeed, and therefore, red-taping everything so we can't compete.
The fans I'm talking about didn't live through the highs of the Keegan era, the misery of the Mike Ashley years, two relegations, players using wheelie bins and an inflatable swimming pool to cool down,a neglected stadium, poor training facilities,dwindling sponsorships, and watching the club slowly lose its identity.
Some lifelong supporters even gave up season tickets they'd held since childhood because they believed it was the only way to force change.
At one point, Newcastle fans were sending their talented kids to there rivals academy Sunlun because it was seen as a better pathway. That's how far we'd fallen.
Now, after just a few years of progress, these people expect us to win every week like it's a given right.
I actually think this is because they were lucky enough to see us lift a trophy or compete in the Champions League in such a short period.
Older fans, the ones who still packed out the stadium despite failure after failure , have patiently waited 70 years for this privilege.
Then suddenly we have a bad season in the league, and they called for Howe's head. He's suddenly crap and the owners don't care and the players aren't good enough.
Every manager goes through difficult periods. Howe had already proved he can turn things around when we had all the injurys , they called for his head then, and the very people demanding he be sacked were celebrating him a year later winning the cup.
If your support only lasts while we're winning, then you're missing what supporting NUFC is all about.
We aren't a London club with all its attractions where the top players want to be located, so we will always be fighting that battle. What we do have, which rival fans have always admired and has always set Newc apart, is the passion, loyalty, and backing of its supporters through good times and bad.
I was gutted when Bobby was hounded out. I'm gutted Howe's been hounded out. But still, I will support the new manager and players regardless.
You were idolised and adored by every generation of our brilliant fan base, legendary status.
You have shown your true colours and thrown it right back in the face of those same supporters.
Good riddance.

Fuck right off man. The game is dead as soon as something like this happens. Everyone involved in Spanish football from players, coaches & fans need to do everything in their power to put a stop to this from happening.
@GazLFC@GianfrancoShoIa I mean if it was written in his contract that he could leave for LFC if they bid £110m he'd be contractually allowed to leave for LFC. But he hasn't, so pay up if you want him released from that contract.

Almiron, Wilson, Longstaff, and Dubravka all gone within 6 months of each other. The squad needs refreshing but 746 appearances between them. All gave their absolute everything and were part of some of the most successful times in recent memory. Truly an end of an era. #NUFC
Bit of a review of yesterday at Heaton Park. The best feel good concert I've attended. The friendliest crowd you could imagine, many parents with their kids and everyone just feeling so lucky and happy to be there. Staff were fantastic in that heat, water stations etc
I’m just going to say it - and yeah, plenty won’t like it - but the excitement around the Oasis reunion isn’t just about the tunes. It’s about Britain. About a time when things still sort of made sense. When the country felt more grounded, more stable, less like it was spiralling into some third-world, open borders clusterfuck. The music matters, of course... but so does the memory of a nation that hadn’t completely lost the plot.
