Apparently we are going to lose all of our games and somehow a new manager means a shite Newcastle side win there games.

Have there been any Mag player rallying calls?

Not one single one, there was a statement put out on Saturday where the players said they supported Tufty, the purpose of it was to contradict the spat with the journalist on Friday.
It's subsequently been reported that the players didn't have a clue about the statement

If that's the case, then the fans have to take the blame for creating the impression he is a terrible owner. He's no better or worse than most owners of premier league clubs, imo.

Surely the lack of them just shows their heart isn't in it to play for McClaren?
Did you read the match thread yet?
I've copied and pasted my post for the links again

If you've got time have a read through the thread as you won't believe some of the comments and I thought this place had a fair few doom mongers but that thread makes ours look like f***ing happy clappers!
Read the posts after the goals as some are chuffed when they concede and gutted when the pull one back as they don't want the draw!

They don't - never have, never will !!
No idea mate. What I do know is that in the 30 odd years I've been supporting this team of ours that we never do things the easy way. Also, the derby rarely goes with form or how you expect it. Also, this run of our has to end sometime.....

The players publicly backed the manager before the Bournemouth game
Makes the players look like f***ing idiots this mind
did they back him tho, or was that more spin & a nufc released statement. talked about on talk sport if that was real & publish by media partner.
Just read them, you see call me naive or old fashioned but I could never in a million years want my team to lose to get rid of a manager. Or for any other reason relating to the club itself, like getting rid of the owner.Surely the lack of them just shows their heart isn't in it to play for McClaren?

What if they'd won on Sat, then lost to Leicester and he'd gone after that, the 3 points against Bournemouth could still have been massive.

Tbh, any half decent manager will get more out of those players than SM has.
Whether it will be enough for them to get 12 points is a moot point.

I'm not necessarily worried about any particular manager taking over.
I'm worried only about a new manager boost. At this stage of the season with the margins so tight, and us struggling to pull away from them despite them being toxic, any short term boost would likely be enough for them.
We've had Di Canio, Dick Advocaat and Poyet in same position and although none of them turned out to be anything remotely like fantastic managers, all managed to save us.
Sounds obvious but we have to match and exceed anything they do so our players really do have to raise their game even further in the run in.

Agreed footballing myth.
If he is still there for the derby, do you think they will want to lose that to get rid of him?

Moyes is a good long term target.
Not short term in the situation they are in now... They would need a Paolo di Canio or someone even more crazy to spark some life in to them.

I wouldn't be surprised judging by some of the comments I've just read on that link.

I'm not too sure about that . They have a couple of good individuals with individual being the decisive word . Shelvey for eg is a player that is an individual , he has something about him but lacks team spirit . Swansea have done good business there and just look at how well they have done since he went . He hadn't been missed and looks like his influence may have been a reason why they were struggling .
