Pity about the Burnley vs Watford game.

Honestly, if I had to put money on it, I do think they will stay up as both of the aforementioned are absolutely woeful.

But Newcastle must be shitting themselves now after Saturday.

They don't really have a lot of winnable home games, and away games in the PL especially are often a bit of a write off for bottom half teams. They could be going into games against the likes of Spurs away where a draw is going to end up being a poor result as it doesn't help them enough.

A bit mental that a team can win 1 in 20 and still have a decent shot at survival. Just goes to show how relatively poor that bottom of the PL is this season.

Watford vs Norwich on Friday is a big one. If Watford win that, the Mags are essentially 6 points from getting out of trouble because of goal difference.
 
We know how fickle those lot are but twitter is full of Newcastle fans sticking the boot into the owners and Eddie Howe, shortest honeymoon period in history :lol:

Their last 5 games
Norwich (a)
Liverpool (h)
Man City (a)
Arsenal (h)
Burnley (a)

Couple of 6 pointers in there, shame Man City will have the title wrapped up by then but hopefully Liverpool need points for 2nd.
 
They may pick up unexpected points toward end of season as other teams give up on the league / rest players for other comps . .. . but then that will be the same for the other relegation threatened teams.

Newcastle always seem to pull of the odd unlikely result ( then make of a mess of the next easier ones :) )

Why would a mag love Beheadie Howe? He's been a disaster thus far. I would be very sceptical of him at this stage.

All the mags were saying the team was better than the results Bruce was getting. Due to poor tactics, wrong formation etc. Howe comes in, doesn't get a new manager bounce and gets worse results too 😂

Thus far Howe has been dog 💩
