villa4europe Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 5 minutes ago, desensitized43 said: What they do have going for them is it looks like another year where an incredibly low number of points will keep you up. People used to take about 40 points but last year 29 would have been enough to stay up. Hard to see if being that bad but it could maybe be 33 or 34. That's the thing with this not winning the first 15 games, has to be put in to the context of how many points adrift of 17th they are which ultimately is all that matters They could have had more wins in the first 15 games but still be more points away if 17th were better As it is 3 points after 17 games is nothing, even if Watford win their game in hand it's not exactly the great escape 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Goal difference will dictate a lot too - Watford have a 9 goal cushion over Newcastle - so even a win doesn’t lift them automatically - especially if they win their game in hand. That Newcastle defence is diabolical and Howe’s team leak goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 A temporary football consultant to head up the January transfer window that could see them go down and be lumbered in the championship with expensive high paid players who don't want to be there?

MWARLEY2 Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 I cannot see anyone selling to Newcastpe from the prem apart from maybe Burnley with Tarkowski. No chance . Man utd will not sell lingard to them. Anyone with realistic ambitions of european football will not sell to them. Maybe ambamayang but hes a busted flush now. So they will have to recruit from abroad. With big wages and big relegation clauses. 2 months on and still no proper director of football. I think they thought they could swan in and do a Man City . But Ashley has let that club die by a thousand cuts. No infrastructure no visible plan. A training ground thats league 1 level . A shit youth system. It could be the biggest damp squib of all time.

Xela Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Hope they words removed go down. Would serve them right for welcoming the new owners in like they did. Hopefully the Premier League teams refuse to deal with them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted December 18, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted December 18, 2021 It would be hilarious if they got relegated, spend money like water (like we did) and struggled to get back up (like we did) and the owners just get bored and walk away. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m very much onboard with the @sidcow vision of Newcastle’s future. I’d like to think they could attract another visionary like Dr T, go the extra mile and build the Bigg Market Theme Park. With a proper Alan Shearer Big Dipper ride and an Ant and Dec all you can drink for a tenner bar. Edited December 18, 2021 by DaveAV1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nepal_villan Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Think the Saudis will quickly realize they ain't going anywhere with the current management team. It will take them 5-7 years to get up to speed. Let's see if they have the patience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why wouldn’t Man Utd sell Lingard to them? Money for a player not playing and out of contract in 6 months, not a team directly a threat to them (anytime soon). If you’re going down the ‘morality’ route, then I don’t think many clubs will refuse to deal with them on principle alone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 I think sell him yeah they would But they wouldn't loan him Even for the likes of utd it's not in their interests for Newcastle to stay up But sell them Lingard for £30m,£150k a week and they still go down? That's the opposite 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
