Please read our Please read ourI have found the conversations interesting around Eddie Howe in recent weeks.
We all know that after an intensive process including football recruitment specialists, the Newcastle United owners narrowed it down to two choices, Unai Emery or Eddie Howe, to fill the vacancy. That vacancy came about when the clueless Steve Bruce was kicked out after yet another home defeat, to Spurs, the new NUFC ownership having been the subject of a quite ridiculous media campaign, demanding that Bruce be allowed a sentimental 1,000th game in management.
That then followed by the fourth place finish of 2022/23 and the League Cup final appearance, then last season where despite the worst season NUFC have ever experienced in terms of injuries in their entire history, Eddie Howe still managed 60 points, missing out on top four and Champions League by only eight points.
Yet they have failed miserably, the very rich ownership ending up not able to spend any more riches on players, a succession of mainly very poor manager choices and with their help, so many disastrous signings made. Leaving them unable to keep buying players with money not generated by the club’s normal revenue streams, caught up in so much PSR trouble, the club carrying so much debt now, struggling to find a new owner willing to take over the absolute mess that they have ended up with now.
Howe’s second signing was so brave. Wilson injured on 27 December 2021 in a draw against Man U, had meant Newcastle without a single Premier League level striker. Chris Wood had a £25m buyout clause and Eddie Howe was ridiculed. Yet in Wood’s 15 PL starts that season, Newcastle picked up 29 points, whilst Wood’s old club Burnley dropped like a stone and were relegated instead of NUFC.
