Nuno has done an absolute number on Howe here. #NUFC

Could we not just have a breather? A bad half? Absolutely! Issues with depth at RB/LB? Sure! But isn’t this the modern game playing out? #NUFC players have been performing well for weeks and some are clearly gassed.

Eddie Howe and the Mad Dog are on the phones!! #NUFC

I can’t help but think that #NUFC as a business entity could do with some refreshed leadership.

Rusty, lacked sharpness, but a good result all things considered.
Excellent response from the playing group.

Silly idea #57
It won’t happen but wouldn’t Kai Havertz work for #NUFC right about now?

Silly idea for #NUFC.
Approach Palace and offer them £50m.
“Wharton or Guehi” your choice!!

I mean… he’d be more expensive than that now. #NUFC
Anyone else reckon Strand Larsen is worth a cheeky £45m punt for Newcastle?
Could rotate with Isak or even play alongside him in a two.

Heading to the Lions Rugby games in Melbourne?
Remember that Rugby Australia despises Victoria and will send every $ to NSW and QLD to fund the game there.
A First Nations or Pasifika player from Victoria no longer has a pathway to a pro career in rugby, due to the circus that is Rugby Australia.

If this is Bunce’s influence, we should prioritise keeping him. 👍 #NUFC

This one is for you.

Exactly!
‘That’s not why Villa aren’t in the Champions League, they aren’t in the Champions League because they haven’t won enough games. They haven’t beaten a terrible Manchester United.’

Did the PGMOL rob Aston Villa of Champions League qualification?

The panel aren't so sure ...

I wasn’t too far off it… would have preferred the .6 points though. #NUFC
By my rudimentary calculations #nufc need 22 points from a possible 36 to finish in 5th. 66.6 points is the target.
It’s doable but not much room for error.

I’d be tempted to throw Osula on down the right from the off. His speed and size could more effective against Cucarella than Murphy. Also an almost permanent out ball over the top. #NUFC

Will take a point. Could make the difference later on. Chelsea is the cup-final. #NUFC

We really could do with learning how to beat teams who shithouse their way to a lead and spend the rest of the game frustrating us.
The chaos isn’t helping. #NUFC

Heads haven’t dropped from conceding the goal, which is a good sign.
Still a lot to do but they can get this done! #NUFC

UCL (ish) target is now 16 points!!!

LEI, MU, IPS, EVE. (12)

Update: Target is now 19 points.
Must win:

You’d have to be embarrassed if you worked on the Australia myGov Id project wouldn’t you? I mean… it’s a piece of crudely ‘designed’ utter garbage, capable of locking the user out of the government services entirely, with less than a click.

New Trafford looks like it was designed by someone who’d recently won a meat tray in the pub, and stuck three random candles in it.
