I could give you 3000!! I feel ANGRY, FRUSTRATED and CHEATED.I feel like all the progress that Eddie Howe made in getting this club back to where it belongs has been thrown awayThree words to describe this summer 2026 NUFC transfer window so far?Three words on current transfer window…JOKE, RISKY and INEFFECTIVE.With the imminent sale of Bruno we are at serious risk of having no or little experience in midfield..why wasn’t his replacement sorted earlier..now we are going to be held to ransom financially.Do you think Newcastle United would have had more or less chance of having a successful 2026/27 season if Eddie Howe had stayed?Yes, if Eddie Howe had stayed I think we would have more chance of a successful season, although if he was not allowed to bring experience in it would have proved more challenging.Hand on heart, what position do you currently believe Newcastle United are most likely to finish in the 2026/27 Premier League season?I think we will finish 14th.If Eddie Howe had stayed would your 2026/27 prediction have been different (up or down…)?If Eddie Howe had stayed I would say around 8th.Do you see a potential lack of leadership on the pitch next season if Bruno Guimaraes follows Kieran Trippier out of the club?Yes, a total lack of leadership, and if Ross Wilson or Hopkinson can’t see this then we are in deep trouble.The opening six league games are Liverpool home, Spurs away, Bournemouth home, Leeds away, Hull home and Coventry away. How many points would Newcastle need to take for you to be happy and what would you predict will be the reality?I would like to think 10 points, unfortunately I think it will be nearer 5.What do you see as the biggest priorities in the remainder of the transfer market this summer?We cant afford to sell any more players in this transfer window and we are desperate for some experience coming in.Sandro Tonali leaving, your thoughts?Tonali leaving is a sleight on us as a club when you consider Spurs nearly got relegated last season, I know we got a good price and he’s got a hefty pay rise but for me the trend is worrying. There seems to be a queue of players to get out the door, Bruno for example has always professed his desire to remain here and yet now he’s joined the clamour for the exit door. This is particularly worrying for me, no other club s
