-Wilson disallowed goal vs Brighton
-Stonewall penalty vs City
-Stonewall penalty vs Wolves
-Isak disallowed goal and almost double initial extra time vs Liverpool
Potentially 9 points robbed from us from refs/VAR. Pisstake
#NUFC
Not one for scaremongering and was very sceptical that Bruno could be off... but he separated from the group and looked really emotional on the final whistle
Head in his hands ages
#nufc
Result and sadness aside...
That was an absolutely world class performance from Joelintion. One of THE best performances I've seen from a man in the black and white
#nufc
Newcastle are now in the bottom 5 teams for January spend and have spent LESS than the average PL club over the last two windows.
Mad to think about
#nufc
Already people calling Newcastle "anti-football" "boring" "embarrassing"
- 5th most goals
- 3rd best GD
- 4th most wins
We're managing games perfectly. Approaching them in the best way to get a positive result whilst playing some pretty fucking nice footy along the way 👍

Miguel Almiron over the past season and a half:
19/20 goal contributions
CAM - 6 in 11 games
Other positions - 4 in 31 games
20/21 goal contributions
CAM - 6 in 8 games
Other positions - 2 in 17 games
PLAY HIM IN HIS NATURAL POSITION
#NUFC
Feel like we'll always struggle to explain to other fanbases how little money had to do with our upswing this season.
Joelinton went from a waste of space to player of season, Krafth transformed into Mr. Consistent, Schar playing with confidence all over again. Eddie Howe ❤️
Worth remembering that, due to amortisation, whatever fee we might get for ASM is worth A LOT.
If we get £30m for him, it raises our FFP threshold by 120m+ if we sign players on 4/5 year contracts 💰💰💰

Steve Bruce performing his usual, infuriating act of shutting down
@SkySports_Keith
- before he can even finish his question on the totally reasonable concerns raised by
@nufctrust
.
Seriously?
#NUFC
#BRUCEOUT
Gordon absolutely belongs in this England team.
Does exactly what he does for
#nufc
. Loads of energy, superb presser, protects his full back and incredibly direct when he gets on the ball.
Nightmare to defend against... and he'll only get better.
Willock and Joelintion were screaming at ASM towards the end of the first half after he decided to down tools for 15 mins
Imagine everyone busting a gut after a midweek game and then seeing a team mate who's barely played acting exhausted before half time
Diabolical
#nufc
Would be nice of Sky commentators to acknowledge that is also a VERY weakened Newcastle side.
Won't stop going on about how it's a second string City side and how incredible their dominance is.
We've rotated 10 players ffs 😭
#nufc
The team that started the final game of 17/18 season when we beat Chelsea 3 nil and finished 10th. Hayden, Joselu and Haidara came on:
We have since signed the likes of Wilson, ASM, Fraser, Almiron etc yet can't string two passes together.
Wonder why that is...
#BruceOut
#NUFC
Maguire clashing heads with Ronaldo and then using Mandava's hand to punch himself in the face is the most slapstick thing I've seen in football in years
Eddie Howe appreciation post.
Passionate. Hard working. Tactically solid.
And doesn't make himself look like a twat by constantly complaining and making excuses in interviews.
Wouldn't want anyone else 🖤🤍

Steve Bruce - Post Leeds Defeat
"It's now 5 without a win in the premier league."
No Steve, it's NINE without a win.
There's a new lie every week. Disgrace.

Steve Bruce:
"I've been very very pleased."
"We've got to keep that momentum going."
'Momentum'

The bar is the lowest that it's ever been.

I don't think I've ever seen a more committed performance than Joelinton gave today.
At £40m he is an absolute steal. One of my favourite toon players ever.
Can't believe I'm saying that.
Matt Ritchie getting a lot of praise here. Shows why the club are keeping him around. Think people underestimate the importance of having characters like him around especially during times of big change on and off the pitch
#NUFC
Pete Graves with a good point on his Instagram. Maddison vs Szoboszlai
- Similar transfer fees
- Szoboszlai would demand a lower wage
- Szoboszlai 22 yrs vs Maddison 26 yrs
Szoboszlai could potentially be a better option. Be interesting to see who we go after
#nufc
Can't believe I'm saying this... But this man is the sort of player
#nufc
are missing atm. Would provide everything that Shelvey / Longstaff can't in games like this. Charging midfielders down, actually putting himself about.
Utter shambles.
Forget Steve McClaren, Alan Pardew... even John Carver.
Steve Bruce has forced this club backwards... even further than I thought was possible.
Has to go, tonight.
#BruceOut
Much prefer Joelinton as a battering ram in midfield. He's having a decent game on the wing but we need to have more control in the middle if we're to get anything from this
#nufc
That insight into VAR tonight was interesting but kind of pointless. The majority of clips were just them explaining how they got to the correct decision.
How about using the opportunity to justify the dozens of blatant errors they've made over the course of the season.
#NUFC
The shift in the mood surrounding the club over the past 18 months is depressing. The atmosphere after Rafa's last game at Fulham was just immense. For the first time in a long time the team, fans and manager pushing in the same direction. Compare that to now...
#NUFC
#BruceOut
If Arsenal dont win the league then Eddie Howe should be 100% nailed on for manager of the season. Don't see how anyone could even debate otherwise.
#nufc
Given the context, this is one of the most impressive 45 mins under Howe.
Countless players with no match fitness whatsoever slotting straight into a system and they've been coached to the point of fluency.
Improves every single player
#nufc
Why has the toon's very existence seemingly driven Everton's fan base into a violent frenzy before a ball has even been kicked?
Seeing all sorts of death threats aimed at geordies on here, some mentioning children.
Not even a dig, genuinely curious
#nufc
New coach comes in. Vocal on touchline. Photographed going through tactics in training. Huge improvement in performance. That's not a coincidence
#NUFC
#BruceOut
After today I never want to see Hendrick in a
#NUFC
shirt again. His complete lack of competence nearly cost us the game today. Thank god for Miggy Almiron
Remember when Tiote's rocket was disallowed because Gouffran got within 5 yards of the shot, but that somehow counts when an offside Rashford literally shields the ball all the way to Bruno? Mental
#nufc
#MUNMCI
Tonali sitting on the France defensive line right alongside striker when Italy have possession and then dropping into DM when they don't. Absolutely everywhere 👌🇮🇹
#nufc
I mean we're completely throwing this competition, but it's the smart thing to do.
Howe's claims that we'll do everything we can to progress evidently BS, but I'd take PL and CL any day
#nufc
Whilst there's something to be said for not letting clubs take the piss and negotiating from a strong start, some of our offers for players like Maddison, Diaby etc. have been WAYY under any sane valuation of those players in today's market - we'd be laughing if it was reversed👀
#NUFC
at home this season:
5 Wins, 3 Draws, 0 Loses
17 Goals Scored, 5 Conceded
St James' atmosphere back at its best. Genuinely believe we can go unbeaten there this season 🖤🤍🔥
Just a reminder that Manquillo, Lascelles and Schar were part of one of the tightest defences in the league in 2019.
Wonder what could have happened. 🤔
#NUFC
#BRUCEOUT
While we ain't spending €100m straight up on one player, I can see us spending it on a player when everything is factored in. Fee spread over many years + performance clauses etc. can inflate a €60m transfer up to €100m over several years while hardly dinting FFP in near term
West Ham having a blinder of a window. Were already ahead of us, but they've also improved more than we have so far. Don't look like they're done, either. 😬
Need to start pulling the trigger on these deals if we wanna have any hope of finishing above them.
