Amanda and Mehrdad didn’t need to put on a drinking act to build a connection with the fans. They did it through good communication, effective management and showing their passion for the club on a regular basis.
“The mark of a good side is its ability to play badly and still win!”
Said someone somewhere.
Whatever happens behind the scenes at nufc, whoever the owners or the ceo is, one constant will always be there, 52,000 geordies willing their team on at sjp. The fans are the lifeblood of this club, not eales and his cronies.
i agree with your take on the ceo, he should be the ultimate professional, we don't need the early ashley stuff
We lack the type of player to control a game, we have fast ,direct, hard working players but many of their skill level in terms of first touch and passing vision isn't a strong point. But the key to us keeping the ball well is movement off the ball into space to receive the ball. Our movement is poor compared to many teams at the moment.
100%, I love our midfielder, I really do but if we want to get to the next level we need more players comfortable on the ball. Tonali still needs to get up to speed fitness wise but I hope he can bring that a bit. Our current three you have Joelinton who isn't the most calm player (bar the odd moment like today for the goal), he plays with his heart on his sleeve, super physical and loves the battles but he's not one to be composed and dictate the pace, Longstaff is maxing out his limited abilities and I have a lot of time for him but he needs a few extra seconds on the ball that he just doesn't always have, even Bruno with all his ability can be a bit frantic when our backs are against the wall. I think having better footballers at the back would help too though so Isak/Botman returning helps.
Tonali as a 6?
Not quite the same as before. - L
If nothing else, Eales should have learned from this window the danger of making bold predictions and then not following through. His interview (from Germany?) where he said it would be a transformative window and that the club will spend every pound in every window allowable under PSR? Building massive expectations among the fans and then producing nothing... I'm glad the Chairman was in town this week. He needs to fix the back-office divisions asap. The cameras panning to Mitchell, Bunce, and Eales during the game... not a smile among them.
Its yer geordie journos! All together again. Great result today chaps 🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍
Cheers! - L
Decent video overall as always but to call Newcastle 'awful' I thought 'are you kidding me'?
I mean I have seen Newcastle play awful and it was nothing like that today. Not at their best I'm sure but glimpses that they are coming back but to call them awful is so way off.
I mean, it's relative. I can think of a million performances worse, but I'm not comparing other eras. Talking about this team. - L
I was not referring to other eras either. I was talking about this team too. A few games last season was far more 'awful' than Sunday's game. Perspective required.@GeordieJournos
We played the same tactics as last season, let Spurs have the ball, spring the attack!
We weren't as effective as last year on the break, but its still an effective tactic against Spurs!
We will play better
Good point. Need to improve with the ball, been particularly bad recently, om that front. - L
Brilliant video - spot on around Eales and the performances this season
Video topic: Honest opinions on the stadium situation - move or expansion and reasons why from each journo
I think Eales is lightweight and that is shown by our limited progress in many areas: transfer signings, PSR fiasco, new / enlarged stadium, new training ground/new sponsors for significant new revenue streams etc etc
he seemed to be doing fine before when there was less scrutiny coming his way, without Amanda and Merhdad as the face I guess there is more focus and pressure on him and maybe he's not used to that. I like how he comes across in interviews though, doesn't sugar coat things (re: PSR and potential stadium name change). It's hard as fans to really know what goes on and who does what in those roles, it was a crap window but it's done now, I can 100% say who is to blame and why so I just get behind Eddie and the lads, what's done is done.
We need something tangible, I think. - L
Another 'Top' PMR fellas, honest and concise.......keep it coming lads HWTL&L
Much appreciated - L
When we play badly but still win - that is the sign of a great, tough team. We are 5th & unbeaten. And we have 2 weeks to sharpen up 🖤🤍
Hope they can. - L
Great to see the 3 GJ back. As one🤗
Like the honest videos. Good seeing u at the match. Class start but still can't keep the ball
Thanks! - L
Another great review 👍🏻 and agree with Liam about Eales, it’s not a great look especially with PIF looking on. Great start points wise but hopefully our performances improve after the break 🙌🏻⚫️⚪️
Thanks 👍
Well said Liam, rolls Royce do not fit karaoke machines in their cars !!
Picking up points while we're not playing well is a great sign. For context we still won and kept a clean sheet playing with 10 men for 60 mins vs Southampton, we ground out a point on the road, and today in transitions we beat one of the best technical sides in the PL. We were never going to have allot of the ball against this Spurs team, they had so much more technical quality than us, so Eddie set up defensively to hurt them on transitions which we did and scored. Yes we conceded a calamitous goal but Eddie made changes to get another goal which we did so I'll take it any day HWTL
we all know we CAN play well, so let's just enjoy the fact we're getting results while not playing well like you say. I'm still entertained in many other ways even if the football is a bit dour. Seeing Bruno celebrate a tackle, watching Joe play a perfect through ball, seeing Pope pull off a top save after a few clangers. Some fans want to be entertained through the football and I get that but I think we need to remember how far we've come in recent years.
@@dddgtsd Absolutely agree on all points!
@@Bennyboy138 just shite that it's international week but that might allow us time to work on the all round game a bit before Wolves.
I totally agree with the professionalism angle. Especially with our owners being who they are. People in management roles set the example. How can you tell a player to be totally professional when you aren't? Also the owners haven't really invested yet. No new ground, no new training ground, no new costly infrastructure. It's all been cosmetic so far. I want the owners to show COMMITMENT. The last two windows have been shocking. They can't keep using PSR as an excuse especially with things that don't cost towards PSR. Manchester City are the exemplar. We are behind Leicester and we are three years into the new regime.
Tripps box was just behind my seat, last home game Tonali was in it and today Botman was in so club using it
Darren Eales is a clown, he could not lace Amanda’s boots and nowhere the same amount of class. To leave the side weaker post window is unforgivable and looks like he lost sight of his job. Feels like we have an uncertain future ahead of us.
I loved Amanda and Mehrdad. - L
Agree Liam dont want Eales acting the clown he's already made a circus of the transfer window
hard to know who does what and what mistakes were made, I'm willing to give Mitchell and Eales a chance - also happy to get behind Eddie regardless of any negative impact he may or may not have had on the recruitment. Eales comes across well in interviews and is now getting more attention and scrutiny with Amanda and Merhdad being out of the picture.
@@dddgtsd yes though Eales forced Staveley and Ghodoussi out by the sound of it,if Mitchell and Eales don't improve in the next window they deserve major criticism,they're certainly lacking the personality of the other two
@@grahamtowler1761 as much as I liked the two of them, I was never sure what their actual roles were - at first, being a cynic I felt like they were just the smiley happy faces of the sportswashing, Amanda being a white woman helping to distance from the Saudi ownership to some degree. That still may have been partly the case but they were great like you say, bags of personality and seemed to genuinely care but it's also worth remembering neither of them had experience working in a football club and it was only a matter of time before we starting filling up the exec roles with people with more experience. It's a bit ironic since they've gone the apparent guys with experience have ballsed up a window but...I also appreciate Amanda and Merhdad were around for the fun bit, the feel good vibes of the takeover, spending big money and now it seems we're having to weather the financial limitations a little bit and perhaps Amanda was more than happy to get out and be remembered fondly than have to deal with the hard times. Who knows what went on but we'll see...I remain optimistic in the long term and just happy to ignore the politics (as much as poss) and get behind the squad/staff.
@@grahamtowler1761 I also see some numpties placing all the blame on Howe because of this unfounded belief he 'only wants Bournemouth players and hates anyone outside the Prem'. As much as I'd rather see blame aimed at Mitchell and the suits at the top, I still think it's all based on hearsay without any understanding of what goes on from PIF to Eales to Mitchell to the recruitment team. It would be great to have a better understanding but that stuff will always remain behind closed doors.
@@dddgtsd Howe has worked wonders since he arrived at the club don't get it when he loses two games in a row and they shout for him to be sacked, I've supported the club for so many years I know how many grim times we've had and these times are definitely some of the better days
2nd Journos vid in a row I disagree.
Gonna get well carried away, and this is why.
That 6 pointer is a massive momentum builder, feck the performance, beating them is huge.
Wilson could be back after the break.
Schar will be back after the break.
Issy off the mark.
And I think that was Tino's coming of age match, he got his call up, esp as Trips might be leaving, it is a proper changing of the guard.
E....I....E...I...O, up the premier league we go!
Get in!
Fantastic summary, Love this channel
Glad you enjoy it! - L
Cheers! - L
Your chat is spot on, just waffle if you can't chat, keep it up lads.
Cheers! - L
I can see amanda coming back in some way shape or form 🤔
Barnes started out on the right when he went out on loan to wba in his younger days and then when he broke into Leicester’s team.
Showed v Forest, he can play there. - L
That Egyptian bloke in the middle made some good points on Eales. Plus Amanda / Newcastle just got deals done with stealth - we've never done that before. This window has been played out in the open with full transparency and it's the second window we've done nowt. Eales stating we were fine with PSR then trying to flog off any talent to meet it. Then says it's a new cycle and sign no one. Agree with the Ashley style drinking with the fans bit - it''s not needed and is embarrasing. Plus he's dragged the squad to the other side of the globe twice pre season which would feck off Howe as it disrupts his preparation. I'm not in the know but is this the reason why there's not the same vibe at the club?
🤣
Yes hopefully they'll kick into fifth gear soon , disappointing if Eales has forced out Staveley as Craig Hope alludes to
get back to training 7 points from 9 next round of the cup onward we go jid saw pieces are finding their place things are looking good
Hope so. - L
To play so poorly and win is great and hopefully all will click soon but I've never seen us having to defend so much at home a couple of seasons ago we controlled home matches
Agree. Very back foot. But hopefully that shifts. - L
Darren Eales out - Mitchell out - Staveley and Mehrdad in
Big call. - L
Totally agree with Liam re "song anddance" unacceptability
hope the chairman has sacked eales today him and Mitchell today looked like they had the riot act to them today looked very sheepish sitting next to the chairman
Hard to tell what's gone on. - L
In terms of Eales, the Japan Karaoke event was good and you need that touch for the far flung fans who can feel isolated. Same with greeting people at kit launch as it is a sense of approachability rather than aloofness
The Stack thing though at a critical moment of the summer window when people are on edge wasn't so good an idea, people want to think they are burning midnight oil.
Intensity was our identity! Hopefully, we’ll get it back at some point. 🤔🖤🤍
A long way off that right now. - L
Eales and Mitchell have messed up and the face for relations front of house are now disappointing which weren't when Amanda and Mehrdad were here
They were top figureheads. - L
Somethings changed, reduced intensity in training by new setup? Reducing impact on players chances of injury? It's showing on the pitch, different from last season when that setup wasn't here. Hope I'm wrong.
Interesting points. - L
Watching the Spurs game it's obvious Bruno is not a '6' - Sandro has to play there. For the away games and against Man City I'm going 4-5-1.
Pope
Trippier Schar Burn Kelly
Tino Sandro Hall
Bruno Joelinton
Isak
Gordon, Barnes, Osula, Almiron, Murphy, Longstaff, Kraft on the bench.
I think it's only going to get better! HOWAY THE LADS!! 😃
Play the BIG and let them swap positions to confuse the opposition
Kudos to Kraft and Murphy. The amount of personal stick these (and others) guys get from so-called Newcastle fans is unreal and unacceptable.
Going forward - how do NUFC get control on the field? For me, Bruno needs to focus on building up his fitness and speed, rather than acting as cheerleader in chief. Perhaps playing Tonali as a '6' will help with our ball retention and, like Schar, he can also hit a long ball. I think 3-5-2 may be the way forward in terms of making the midfield competitive and effective.
Pope
Kraft, Schar, Kelly
Tino Tonali Longstaff Bruno Hall
Gordon Isak.
No Joelinton? - L
The first 20 mins against Girona we were electric. What’s happened?
The real ball. - L
I said all along Darren Eales is a mug - cut from Mike Ashleys cloth
I like him, I just don't like the lads act. - L
@@GeordieJournos he wont change, thats Darren Eales, he acted like that at Atalanta ( the MVP of his CV BTW......) he is poor mate, hes not best in class, not even close, and we deserve better
Did Eales do the Q&A at the stack before the game?
He needs to come out and be accountable rather than letting Eddie face the firing squads
No. - L
Inverted wingers are the daftest idea I've ever known. Jacob Murphy is right footed yet Miggy is all left foot and they both can't cross a ball. Are players these days not learning the art of crossing? It is the single most effective means of assisting a goal yet so few teams do it. A good cross causes chaos in the box and goalkeepers and defenders hate them.
It's the modern way. - L
You can be realistic without doubling down on negativity. Do you actually think if after a win like that, a player hears you say that, they are going to fight for you? Liam, I swear, we are not Everton fans. Let's not become toxic ffs. We won against Spurs who are battling against us playing the worst we have under Howe. Back the team man.
Why does it feel like people are looking to bring up the negative bollocks. We don't need it right now. I get being real and being journalists but considering our results, there is no way players would feel good about hearing this. We've gone unbeaten playing the worst we have under Howe.
If players are coming to UA-cam for validation, then they have a serious problem. This isn't negative or criticism, just honest opinions on the topics of the day. - L
Eales’ style is totally irrelevant. It’s a results oriented business. If the club keeps winning, he could dress like a clown everyday and it wouldn’t matter one bit
Not for me. - L
Eddie called out in his press conference, we are building momentum but are not playing to potential yet. Grit & determination and enjoyed the flags for Tonali. Atmosphere was good but it was very different from previous Spurs home games. No pressure on Eddie with how the transfer window and sense international break will help and we will have Schar back from the suspension. Good to have you back Liam
Cheers! - L
Individual errors, spot on! We've stumbled through these first few games. Don't get me wrong it's positive on paper, wins points and cup progression but it ain't been easy on the eye....... who's that tanned adonis? 🤪
😅
I thought it during the summer and still think it now EH should have replaced Pope.
Budgets didn't allow, clearly. - L
Why were you lads not around pre takeover? Cashing in on it
What a weird comment. We're all lifelong NUFC fans and former season ticket holders. I have covered NUFC as a journalist since 2016, so aye, been around a bit. - L
@@GeordieJournos No L lads. You cashed in
Dear all,
Canny video as always👍
Regards,
If we had bought a centre half, I doubt this rant would have happened. 😅
The piece referenced was written well before a centre back was off the table. - L
Could you ask, when is this so called imminent dossier about the stadium and the training ground coming out. Also , I agree that eales should act more professional , instead of acting a like a clown.
I asked Brad Miller. No date. Just repeated imminent. And won't be rushed. He was very impressive btw. - L
Excellent before , that so called injury to linesman? Long time out helping spurs ,took the advantage away and Newcastle lost momentum
It did. - L
Slippery Eales
We want Darren & Co to deliver. - L
i think football has lost its way completely, it was about entertainment, now people are happy if the team wins regardless of performance. it is a results driven business but there has to be some enjoyment
Boring now. More about stats and money thank ffp, prs, the cabal and bad transfer decisions. Amanda et al ousted too. Pleases we won but that 2nd half showed us up
Of all the things wrong with football these days, I'm not sure fans being happy with a result regardless of performance is one of the biggest issue? Each to their own but that is something that has been common amongst certain fans regardless of all the other factors. I for one get different enjoyment from Newcastle games than say a neutral game, I couldn't care less how entertaining my own team is because I just want to see them get the result (good performance is a bonus). For example I'm entertained by the shithousing, the effort, every little tackle, seeing the guys I back every week pulling through to get the result. I am definitely happy regardless of the performance but like the lads said, we know they can play well on their day so winning when playing bad is a good thing in many ways. We've not been convincing but I'm still definitely happy with the results - got to take the happiness where you can because like you say footy has lost it's way with all the money involved.
If you don't enjoy it when we win, probably best to stop watching. If Isak squares it to Barnes we run away with it
@luketaylor348 so you watched the match fully? We were great in the 1st half and the 2nd half, not. I get the mentality a win is a win and great, but you know if you're a true fan, you hopefully would know that we needed re-enforcements in the past two transfer windows. It hasn't happened and shows a lack of ambition. Wait until the injuries come as they inevitably do.
@dddgtsd I agree with the money aspect. Used to be the working man's game. Now it's a buisness/corporate
I think darren else was brought in to do a job with the likes of journos and the geordies along with behinds the scenes.... why can't he be doing a thing with you and working on other things you don't see?
He can. And I hope he is. - L
Eddies human….Eales puts ok fake
Eddie is a proper pro. - L
@@GeordieJournos agree he’s fantastic, look at the parish thing..Eddie didn’t go off telling the world the crack. He also isn’t in stack jumping around to be ‘one of the lads’ fake crap
A and M didn't sell themselves sufficiently to PIF. Despite their obvious success, they are no longer here. Attacking DE for that is to ignore that PIF are pulling the strings. DE is here in no small part because his experience building a huge modern stadium and football club from nothing. Don't agree in the professionalism take but DE getting stuck comes with the territory if you going to get your geek on. Hopefully he has a stadium project to present to us in glorious detail which would go a long way to remind us of his corporate credentials. Let's not other him, he is on our side and so is Mitchell.
I want nothing more than this. Proof of the pudding is always in the eating. - L
Tan??? Radish 😂
🍅
Eee lads are just fans like the rest of us. Talk shite. It was a tactical masterclass from Eddie. This club is on the up .
Hope so. - L
Eales taking a selfie in the bed with the Sela Cup and The Diriyah Cup was absolute cringe!
Act like a CEO for god sake.
🙈🙉🙊
So negative Liam..... Weird tbh are you on sky / daily mail payroll?
Tactical masterclass from Howe today! So good without the ball. We were the best team in both boxes which is the main thing in the premier league.
Liam does not understand this and high level football!
Clueless tbh funny listening!
You think the fact they couldn't keep the ball or string passes together was on purpose?
@@dominicstar273he's just one of these weirdo's that can't accept that everything's not sunshine and rainbows 24/7 with the club.
Respect your opinion, even if I think it's rubbish. - L
saying It's been a terrible transfer window - makes it sound good!! Absolutely lousy - Eales is out of his depth - bettter at Karaoke - Eales by name and nature - Ashley twin - Mitchell has it wrong - look at those amanda and co brought in - by January it will have been a year!! Not good enough for nufc anymore - fans now being alienated, togethrness suffering and its on the pitch - hope the owners have flown in to get rid - and send Elaes to X factor - un professional waste of space
Ashley gave up his box, because he didn't like seeing Dom's font change above the east stands. Eales can do whatever song/dance he wants, after a cup/title win. 😃🖤🤍
😅
We were absolutely shite once again.
This takeover is stale and feels dead.
You're stale and sound dead.
I'm trying not to be too pessimistic but I think they need to communicate a bit now and maybe just settle some of the concerns the fans have. It's clearly not the 4/5 year plan they thought it would be. If we keep growing revenue and stick with Howe for this difficult period, I think things will look up. Be interesting to see what happens in January, transfer wise.
It's not quite that bad. - L
Yalreet it’s the 3 Amigos😂the Notorious BIG🎉beyond them tho it’s pretty fragile, however credit to Murphy…he is full of effort and passion🖤🤍Eales clowning 🤡 around will get him a rollicking from PIF😮I’d like to hear your views on stadium 🏟️ move redevelopment or brand new one.
A good talker, we might look to address that one. - L
