Tom

I’ve given him grief but that’s sensational from Pears

Billy K looks like he’s never played football before, he’ll cost us a goal here

WHAT?

It’s been coming

These subs are not what I wanted to see

Yet the BBC felt moved to talk about why, which is the objective Shame it wasn’t more but the criticism there has to be at non participants rather than those that did

Really good half the concern is that you wouldn’t expect Newcastle to be as bad again second half

Got to give Murphy some credit, can’t stand him normally but he could have been far more cutting about the club he was actually relatively fair saying we deserve better

You’d certainly expect to see a yellow for that in the premier league these days

Love to see it but at 0-0 it could have been really bad for him if the ref had seen fit to give a second yellow

Seen the highlights and two lovely goals for us (weak keeper for first mind) and their first is a stunner but the second is awful the keeper has to do better I would have taken a point before kick off and after it went 2-2 but still it’s disappointing to give up that lead so easily Feel Gally is going to be huge for us and we need him in form

Argh can’t believe we didn’t snatch an undeserved point there you couldn’t ask for a better chance Shocking all round and a waste of an evening

2 minutes into stoppage time and Pears boots a free kick out of play - ideal

Bad as it’s been this, shockingly bad. Grind out the season and then try and work out a plan!

I presume my stream is just stuttering because I’d swear I saw Pears start to dribble it out then just stop and abandon the ball

That’ll do, win ugly and see this season out, get rid of the parasites somehow and start over

I’ve genuinely never expected us to go down to be fair

Wow Pears stepping up

Good luck to him love that we made a statement of ‘we will not be making a comment at this time’ Then immediately followed up with this ‘news’ Looks like Benson may keep his job if he’s only bringing in an assistant

Benson survived again? Given they didn’t say anything about interim manager you’d assume the next announcement is coming tonight

I’ll maintain you did right to attend and give it your all Things can be spun either way and I think the PR risk is tangible but at the same time ‘we tried to engage with fans who didn’t want to’ is also spinable Any frustrations are at the regime not the players or fans

Please no

FWIW I also think it’s not a great look by Roverschat saying effectively ‘tune into our next podcast to hear all about it’ At this point in time tomorrow is light years away and discourse is needed now

I was one of those people that went to Pune, I also spoke along with Tris formerly of this parish at uncle jacks the week after and shortly after left the fans forum as I didn’t think it was the right vehicle to approach the challenges faced We were used as a publicity stunt 100% I saw it first hand but we tried which is why I won’t berate anyone for trying But I share your fears, even things like the fact other things were discussed but can’t be disclosed is going to cause discontent

Said on twitter but I’ll repeat here I will never blame any fan for doing what they think is right and taking a chance to voice concerns, I learned in 2011 that a lot won’t agree with that. However on the face of it todays meeting feels very odd, I take solace in the fact we had some great guys there representing the fans but worry how it can be spun by those that want to, the comments from it have already potentially given ammo to dissenters. That leak is very bizarre as well Never quite known anything like the last few days
