I’m not sad to see Hull go but I wouldn’t have minded them staying up due to Marco Silva. He impressed me since joining the club and really improved them, they were a shambles when he took them over and already looked dead certs for relegation. He’ll still get credit for that and could still have a very good career so it’s not disastrous for him, but I would have quite liked to see him remain in the Premier league and see if he could build on his progress.
hopefully a fun northern club comes up, as well as newcastle.
Well it won’t be with Hull but I think he’ll get a Premier League job within the next year, the next mid-table manager job that comes up - probably Southampton.
Well he still has to do the A1 to get to Newcastle
*she
3 dull northern clubs out (we usually struggle out there), 1 northern in (Newcastle where we always do well). Not bad in the end!
I actually like Newcastle because it’s always felt like a big club
If a lower-to-mid Prem manager gets sacked, I think he’ll be one of the first people on the short list.
I agree with you, I’d have liked to see more of him.
Silva will be at Watford or Southampton next season.
bit of a drop down from Man City
Big stadium doesn’t equal big club.
I mean, don’t get me wrong, I like Newcastle. I don’t go to a lot of away games, but that is one I always make sure I go to. They’re a bigger club than some, for sure, but big? How do we decide that? Villa and Forest are European champions, Newcastle are not.
I don’t mean big as in loads of trophies and great success but they are just a well recognized team, a big fan base and just feel like a premiership team should be, hard to explain but they’ve always felt like a big club to me
Yeah I think I know what you mean. They’re certainly more likeable anyway, I was quite sad when they went down.
Newcastle stopped being a big club after they sold Harris and Munez in the same window
haha that’s the film goal isn’t it?
Blew the final in the sequel too with a 2 goal start. Fucking bottlers.
Watford, imo. Mazzarri won’t survive beyond the summer.
I cant remember us losing at Hull and I’m pretty sure the last time we lost at Sunderland was like 2000.
Yeah, but still hate playing them.
No, we lost against Sunderland away in 2009.
