Iād give us more chance of staying up under Bruce than Schofield. We'll have to agree to disagree on that. If we appointed Bruce I'd stop going. Town of lately do like employing x personnel, never say never!!! |

Lovely stuff. Is Brucie raging? Thought he was going to explode when they didn't get that penalty 5 mins from the end. Great that it wasn't given but once again summed up the joke that is officials in this country. How can you look at that and think it's anything other than a penalty. Striker nips around on the blind side and clumsy defender boots his calf |

In fairness, Corberan had zero experience, and little calibre, when he took over. Are you suggesting we need a dinosaur? Are WBA happy with their manager with experience and calibre? I'd "like" this post twice if I could. We don't know if Schofield will turn out to be a great coach or not, but if the reports of him being "highly rated within the game" are accurate (and tbf I've only heard that from within the club) then he deserves the time we afforded Carlos at the very least. It's clear to anyone with eyes and a brain that what's holding WBA back is their "experienced" manager. Would I swap Schofield for Bruce? Not in a million years. It's not as if we've got stacks of cash to throw at someone like Sean Dyche either. Carlos in his poor season had us out of the blocks in the first half of the season. This time we are bottom dwelling in the bottom 3. It's not good enough. Schofield was the cheap appointment and I feel with a more experienced manager we may see a better gameplan. |

I thought it was alright. Midfield was poor and made me wish we had Scott High and i never thought iād say that.
Apart from that not a bad display and not a bad result.

We have some decent players. We donāt have any system or organisation. Time to stop pissing about, Dean. Your last 2 appointments have, frankly, been embarrassing. Weāre a decent Championship club, appoint a proper manager Apart from the keeper Anjorin the steady away centre backs Pearson and Lees who exactly are these decent players and when you say decent what exactly do you mean championship quality or just professionals ? And by the way Dean doesnāt give a Fook since he got better itās just a rich mans plaything like a game of chess or monopoly |

Completely agree, looking forward to Kasuma giving us hopefully a bit more energy, Rudoni was excellent, a very good point against a strong attacking team, thought there defence was poor. |

Sorry but Schofield needs replacing now. He is so far out of his depth it's unreal. We need a manager with experience and calibre. Our game plan looks non existent But heās Dean buddy how dare you even suggest that! one of the jobs for the boys brigade |

ESPN commentator said that Turton is known as āThe Ginger Cafuā in Huddersfield and highly thought of. Whilst Iām not necessarily disagreeing, I canāt admit to hearing this before. Is he? And, is he?

Too deep, too quickly, too narrow and in there for too long .
The personel isnt the issue, its the amount of balls that come into the box both in the air or on the floor.
Sort that out and defend a little higher and we will be ok.
They got a goal in the second half and had plenty of possession the best two chances after that were ours.
New players coming in, Hogg and Pearson to come back.
Lets still give it a bit eh??

I keep seeing that we've got a "decent squad".
It's a wafer thin squad, lacking in quality in key areas. It's not decent, it's nowhere near that.

Lovely stuff. Is Brucie raging? Resentment not much Paul š¤£ tbf, he's past his best and I think he's had a good career at championship level, not a PL manager thats going to suddenly grow into a better coach though. Despite the controversial circumstances, footballing-wise, Newcastle are in their best place for almost 20 years - playing good football, highly rated young manager, stadium absolutely rocking, making exciting signings, and putting together a really useful team, Bruce should really be nowhere near my radar, but WBA's results are still one of the first I look out for  I've said it before, we've likely had some worse managers in my near 30 years, and some proper dubious characters as well, but wor Steve has definitely left the worst lasting impression on me out of all of them by a mile, and it's not recency bias either. A shame you couldn't have held out, but as others say, many would have probably taken that result at 3pm. |

They're now an extension of a brutal regime which beheads and tortures political activists. A vile regime which is using Newcastle to sportswash it's image. It's beyond disgraceful. |

We play what I would call "hopeful football". We hope for a set piece, bit of magic or mistake from the opposition.
There is little control in anything we do. We don't control the ball/possession. Our players always seem to be either too close or too far away from each other. An easy pass is rarely on.
The defenders and the goalkeeper are clearly instructed to put their foot through the ball, yet all this does is constantly present the opposition with easy possession.
In terms of defending, we get everyone behind the ball, but we don't stop the opposition creating chances. They are still able to play through us.
I just can't see Schofield's present tactics bringing us much more than a relegation battle. We spend massive parts of most games defending our own box, and we don't seem to have a coherent plan to attack the opposition.
Perhaps this makes me a negative poster, but I can only comment on what I see. And I see a team with little direction scratching around for results.

He was crap so to come out and say he was excellent is baffling. Praising players when they have clearly been poor is ridiculous. |

Yea, as per my above, town reckon they've replaced obrian and toffs but my question is, where are the replacements for colwill, pipa and sarr. Letting sarr go is looking stranger by the game. Whilst not been his biggest fan he is a championship defender. Weve got a 19 year old from the B team, REG coming back off a loan and whats his name from Cheltenham. As well as no replacement for ething and no striker for the second year running. Yikes. Although I'm prepared to accept JR is a good goalscorer at this level. |

It's not as if we've got stacks of cash to throw at someone like Sean Dyche either. There is an alternative to a very inexperienced coach like DS and a ādinosaurā coach as some like to refer to. What about someone from League 1 with previous experience of managing in the Championship who isnāt in his 70ās? There are a few around in management likely looking for that next challenge. Sure thereāll be compo to pay and that will likely be the issue hence we trundle on with DS at the helm hoping it all comes good for which I gave serious doubts. |
