By the way, I’d like to say a big thank you to all the stewards and members of the public who helped my son when he suddenly took ill at the match last night. Reassured us both not to worry about the mess and helped him get cleaned up before we left.
People are nice.

Was waiting for a 10-game sample, but last night's post-match comments (as much as the performance itself) have the alarm bells ringing for me at the moment.

I hope Jaissle proves me wrong starting at Fulham away this weekend. #NUFC

#NUFC How we all feel bout now

It’s been lost in what followed but we have to ask what is wrong with our fans who don’t understand the concept of a minute’s silence as part of the #NUFC Remembrance. The PA repeated the silence request at least x3 times. It’s not the first time. What’s so difficult about being quiet for a minute?

My wife is getting her make up done for a little party we're having tonight so I'm treating myself to some merch and a pint in The Strawberry. #NUFC

I don’t think #NUFC looked badly coached tonight. It was worse - they looked uncoached. What was more worrying that after that appalling first half they listened to Jaissle at HT and proceeded to get worse. Disorganised. Shapeless. Sluggish. No courage or invention. Reminiscent of McClaren etc

To paraphrase Dolly Parton - it cost a lot of money for #NUFC to be that shit.

Swap the managers tonight. I think you swap the result. #nufc

I don't think I've ever watched a game where Newcastle players get in each others' way as much as this

Constantly seeing two players in the same place tripping each other up 🤷

In case you missed it yesterday, I pulled together a newsletter about what the underlying data is showing (spoiler - it largely agrees with your eyes), but it's here should you fancy a read with a cofee this morning. #NUFC

Full-time: #NUFC 0-1 #EFC

Dreadful, directionless & toothless display, with no shot on target until 85th minute - & again goal #NUFC conceded was so soft & self-inflicted.

Boos at half-time AND full-time. Fair few fans left early. Stupid Ramsey red, too.

Worrying.

The players might not be good enough to challenge top 6 but they're good enough to string 5 passes together.

MJ had some context, but we can see this isn't working, that it's not getting better & it looks like he doens't have the tools to turn it around. He's also turned on the players now #NUFC
Unless the players are shit… most of whom failed EH last year.

Not many managers would have picked up this lot.

Round pegs. Non existent holes.

Nowt about this attack feels suited to the personnel that we have.

No structure, intensity, zip or purpose with the ball. #nufc

If this were the team it looked like Jaissle was trying to build, #nufc fans' patience would be endless. We'd all see it's a group of young lads trying to adapt to the league, to each other, and become a cohesive unit.

Razor and I don’t always agree, but this, THIS, is bang on.

A managers first job is to convince the players to follow the plan. #nufc

⚫ Unique qualities 🔎
⚪ Fans can buy into Steur as faith in approach dwindles 👥
⚫ Tops progressive passes, carries & accuracy stats 🤩🎯
⚪ Imperfect solution to turn to 18yo early ⚖️

👀 Why it's time for Jaissle to expedite Sean Steur's ascension into #NUFC XI:

The plan had been for the 18-year-old to be gently eased into the Premier League, but Newcastle could really use his talents now

Ahh yeah. When the “players aren’t doing what I say” lines are coming out, the whole thing is cooked. Getting players to follow you is legit job #1 for a football manager. #nufc
⚫️⚪️ REACTION: Pretty strong stuff from Matthias Jaissle after the game as he accuses his #NUFC players of 'failing to carry out the tactical instructions they were given' in their 1-0 home defeat to Everton...

Jaissle has not improved anything at #NUFC - our team play has not improved and individual performances are regressing. We are playing terrible football and losing football matches - some thoughts from me on how his exit is inevitable and what it might mean -
