4/5/2023 0 Comments Im your man![]() It’s a great opportunity for them to show their potential and to give Mowbray some different options.The appealingly peculiar result lands somewhere between “Ex Machina” and “Toni Erdmann” on the tonal spectrum, if you can imagine such a hybrid - yet also riffs playfully on a wealth of hoary romantic comedy tropes, including the uptight career woman with no room for a love life, and the strictly-for-practical-reasons fake relationship that blooms into something complicated. I’d love to see the likes of Pierre Ekwah and Abdoullah Ba given a chance. Tony Mowbray has demonstrated a lot of loyalty towards the likes of Michut and Neil, which is a positive, but they definitely need to have their workload reduced or they’re going to be completely spent with a good chunk of the season left. Personally, I do feel that some of the young players are being overplayed right now, and it’s showing in their performances. It’s hard to play at a high level every three days, and will Dan Neil and Edouard Michut have learned anything from this? Tom in FranceĮd’s Note : Hi, Tom. Is this strategy? I suspect it is, because we’re guilty of flogging them right now. I’m worried about the form of some of our players, some of whom need resting but keep playing. That alone should be motivation enough for the Lads this Saturday, and the determination to show Neil that he was misguided to abandon us when he did ought to give everyone- players and fans alike- even more desire to see us through and pick up a victory. I’m sure that nice, lucrative bet365-funded salary is helping to sweeten the deal, but will he ever manage a bigger club than us? No. Neil walked out on us in thoroughly unprofessional fashion last year, leaving behind a young and promising team and choosing to coach a team of, well, not very good footballers down in the Potteries. Thanks for your letter!įrom a pride point of view, it’s absolutely a must-win. We can’t afford to lose to him! John HallĮd’s Note : Hi, John. Given what we know about Alex Neil and Stoke, is this weekend’s fixture a ‘must-win’ game? Perhaps it’ll be addressed at some stage because if attendances keep climbing in the future, it could become an even greater issue. The streets surrounding the stadium aren’t exactly the best places to park, either, and there’s been a multitude of issues all season regarding safety and traffic being redirected, which can lead to frustration among the fans. ![]() I tend to park in either St Mary’s multi-storey or The Bridges rooftop, which are both safe and easy to access, but can often be difficult to get out of, resulting in a longer journey home when the traffic is heavy. I sympathise with you regarding parking on match days. It’s annoying that the match day experience is spoilt by the worry of finding a parking space. This means that we have to park much further from the stadium. Parking anywhere near the stadium is becoming a joke, with wardens issuing tickets and setting up ‘No Parking’ zones in many streets. However, by leaving at that time, I can be out of town and down the A19 before the final whistle. I leave on eighty-eight minutes, purely because if I left at full time, it would take me an hour or more to get home. I hate leaving early, but I do so every game!

I did find some of the social media content regarding the Carabao Cup final quite strange, and I simply can’t get into the mindset of someone who’d wish Newcastle good luck on the basis that a victory for them would’ve been ‘good for the North East’. I’m sixty years old and I’ve supported the club on the Fulwell End terrace since the late 1970’s. After all, have you not seen the abuse we receive constantly? If you’re of that persuasion, you need to shake your head or detach yourself from the club. As Len Shackleton once said, “I’m not biased when it comes to Newcastle, because I don’t mind who beats them!”. I simply can’t grasp how any Sunderland fan would want Newcastle to win anything, let alone a cup. ![]()
