Rugeley Villa Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 7 hours ago, VillaChris said: It's a double edged sword with Newcastle's support...yes the numbers are good but you could hear on tv they were starting to whine and get on the players backs at 0-0 when Afobe fired over. Eddie Howe also mentioned it in his post match press conference. Along the lines of keep it 0-0 for first 20 minutes and the crowd would start getting frustrated and demand Newcastle get forward more so they would leave space for Bournemouth to counter attack in and so it proved. 52k is great when things are going well, but your right because i imagine the pressure with that level of support when things are not going well is huge. the geordies for the most part have always been well supported.

Tomaszk Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Best thing they could do is hire Di Canio or Sherwood, then sack them after they keep them up, but before they accelerate the ruining of the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's similar to us really, many of the crowd will remember the mid 90s when Newcastle were a relevant force and really should've won the league and were regularly in the top 4, even 15 years ago under Sir Bobby they were that standard and had a really good team....Given, Woodgate, Solano, Robert, Gary Speed, Bellamy, Shearer so it's a bit hard to understand nowadays the shite they're watching fighting relegation every season so patience will be very thin.

rodders0223 Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Spat on and hounded out Sir Bobby for finishing 5th. **** the lot of them, bunch of fat words removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 (edited) Hounded out big sam when they were top half because they demanded better then got relegated. Did exactly the same with Pardew. Deluded idiots. Said on talksport yesterday that over the last 12 months they've only scored 3 more points than us.

PieFacE Posted March 9, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted March 9, 2016 Personally I think they're far more likely to bring in Pearson than Rafa. To go from Real Madrid to Newcastle would be insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 To take that risk on his CV is insane, I thought Rafa was meticulous too, loads of preparation and coaching, that's not throw him in with 10 games left and hope he motivates the players to get them over the line 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Benitez is a very good coach and organiser but seems to have lost his way in recent times, his Napoli side's defensive record was awful and Real Madrid have looked very dodgy at the back for most of this season. And then we come to CoColoccini and co... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A point off safety with a game in hand (albeit v Citeh) and still 9 games to go. No point crossing your fingers or waiting another month. Roll the dice now and see what happens. A new manager boost might be just the ticket. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
