Same as Bielsa he over achieved massively one season and then the fans, and outside media, suddenly expect them to do even better despite them suffering from injuries.
Yip He's had an absolute load of disruption to his team this term, and not much added at all.
Is the clown there by any chance.

Personally, I can’t see Howe going anywhere just yet. The fans still seem onboard with him, particularly the away fans which is generally a good barometer.
From memory, there was minimal investment from the previous regime, so the £400M spend was probably needed and over the last 6 years or so id guess their overall spend is not that bad against the other Top 6/7.
Don’t cry because you said goodbye to your pet, smile because you said hello
Although I actually like the job that Eddie Howe has done at Newcastle its only a matter of time imo that he will be replaced.
Newcastle just need to get on the right side of the Financial FP rules and then they'll be able to strengthen the side. There are top
managers out there with the experience to get Newcastle into the top 3 sides in England... Now if you had 300 million to spend on a side would you give to Eddie Howe or Xabi Alonso..
"Yeah teammates bit s**t mate, hopefully we sort it out"
Moron Sherwood.
Sherwood is just being such a smartarse, The Producer on whatever programme it was, should simply ditch him for that. Very good at opening mouth before engaging brain!
The ten clubs who blocked the new £900mil EFL deal are reportedly
Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham, Liverpool, West Ham, Aston Villa, Wolves, Nottingham Forest, Crystal Palace and Bournemouth.
London massive, excuses FC, irrelevant Wet Spam, newly minted Villa who nearly went out of business in the EFL but its alright now so sod everyone else
Potless Forest who've barely been outside of the EFL for decades.
Palace who are well nobody important and little Bournemouth
Citeh, an average PL club who had won nothing for years and were skint, suddenly go out and spend Billions upon billions on turning them into the worlds best club.. Along comes the new Newcastle owners looking no doubt for a repeat of what happened down in Manchester, the fans go wild at the prospect, then suddenly out from behind the Iron curtain pops FFP with its poultry 4-6 point fines.
If i was one of the richest people in the world i would treat FFP the same way PSG did. No club is bigger than the prospective bank balance.
We get relegated from the prem into the most competitive season in the championship possibly ever.
Meanwhile the prem is easier than ever to survive in with 3 awful teams promoted and 2 with points deductions
Then assuming we go up with Southampton and Leicester the prem will again be extremely competitive at the bottom
Timing and circumstance has never been a strength of Leeds united has it.
The rich six were allowed to spend spend spend. Now for other clubs that door has slammed shut. The notts forest supporter was right, "how are we supposed to stay in the premier league if we're not allowed to compete with those six who have got away with it before these rules came in"

Just wait until parachute payments are gone as well something the EFL seem desperate to make happen - dammed either way then, spend on the hope of staying up and get hit with FFP if you do manage it.
Or spend and get relegated and risk oblivion with no parachute.
Forest will appeal I presume. Everton did and succeeded although I think they’re due another dockage. Meanwhile the rich clubs at the top do as they please.

Everton's appeal was just to get the points deduction reduced. I feel that the Forest point deduction has already taken into consideration the Everton revision. I don't see Forest getting any points back.
This points deduction is all completely backwards. Penalties need to be imposed in the season they happened. Maybe it's nit possible to align the football year with the financial year. But we already have two teams that benefitted last season and we got relegated. Leicester could possibly make it 3.

I would imagine Forest will appeal but that if they get to a point where they will stay up despite the 4 points deduction they would suddenly drop their appeal and accept the punishment. They will no doubt appeal as long as the 4 points makes a difference.
So the EPL have decided 4 points is an appropriate punishment for violating its rules. It doesn't seem to me to be much of a deterrent to stop teams doing it. Surely Forest have benefitted by more than 4 points for cheating?
If we get promoted and by January are comfortable ie no threat of relegation. Spend spend and spend to get the team ready for the next season and take the four point deduction we'll be able to afford. Simples.
What an utter disgrace the so called 'Premier League' is.

The greedy 7 might as well have their womens team in the PL, they are richer than the bottom half anyway.
