Late to the party I know, but that match has put me firmly in the Gerrard out camp. An opportunity to go ninth by beating the bottom team and we looked like we couldn’t care less. MOTM a 37 year old who has looked better than most when he has played this season, and the only real sign of interest from Archer. I’ve now seen Dendonker twice, I’m not convinced I’ve seen him touch the ball yet.
Spent the last two matches before looking like a Dave Bassett side only to play very pedestrian football on the floor in this game. I just don’t get it.
Newcastle have managed to turn a corner significantly with money and Eddie Howe while we have also spent to keep treading water with this fella. Another wasted season, and that’s if we avoid the drop. We should have taken much more advantage of the relatively easier opening fixtures, but we haven’t.
