    I defy any real Newcastle supporter not to be extremely concerned after watching that match on Saturday. Don’t let 10 minutes of gung ho at the end let us forget 80 minutes of drab cr*p.
    It’s expensive to watch football these days and the club isn’t investing to make it entertaining. Ashley has tested the loyalty of our fans to the limit - we’ll never stop loving the club but don’t want to be taken for gullible idiots.

    So what's all these buys then?

    Almiron.
    Saint-Maximin.
    Joelinton.
    Willems. (loan)
    Carroll.

    What exactly should the club be buying to make it more exciting?
    Bruce has the opportunity to get these players firing along with the back up of the seasoned players at the club.
    We have the potential for an exciting team once again. It's just a case of hoping Bruce is the man to put it together.
    many think he won't but many also say "give him time."

    The club should not be employing a manger of the standard of Steve Bruce. His record is very poor and blindly hoping that he does something that he's never done before in his career is pathetic for a club of Newcastle's stature. All 'those' buys as you put it, is the best we've had for many a window but still completely sh*t compared to any other PL club.

    You are so easily pleased - maybe you've got used to Jack Ross.

    Who should the club employ then?

    His record isn't very poor. His record is actually ok.

    What other premier league clubs have had better buys than us, apart from the obvious elites?

    No I'm not easily pleased but I'm able and willing to give managers and players a chance until I realise they're either not for us or they actually do well.

    Rafa Benitez.

    Are you joking?

    All of them.

    Get your head out the sand.
