Sorry Pierre, the club badly let you down with a terrible transfer window (thanks again Matt Hobbs), but today was a terrible result. This isn't a good Newcastle team. And they've breezed past us. Off you go.

Who's sacking will be announced first? Sage or Carrick?

Times up, just not the right appointment for us and surely Parish is counting his days aswell as it was his choice.
No charisma, no touchline presence, must be so boring in the dressing room so how does he expect to inspire the players. Had one season in France that was good and now looks like it was more due to the squad than him.
Move on, Thomas Frank would do a better job.

Think Sage,has worked hardest for this outcome!!
Time to pack your bags and go back to France for a quiet life.

What pisses me off is the way managers are so wedded to their pet systems. Every game we are being overrun in midfield and yet first Glasner and now Sage are too stubborn to change it. An extra body in midfield would give Wharton and Kamada so much more space to play but no it’s my way or the highway. This approach by Sage will lead to his sacking….
Has the club given Sage the best chance to succeed?
No.
Is there any evidence that Sage can turn it around,
No.
That being the case, I hope Parish has a credible candidate lined up with a clear operating plan to get the best out of current squad and that such person is ready to start immediately.

Indeed. What we don’t need is Paddy trying to tread water for a month. We’ll be adrift by then.
Something has been off with Sage ever since he came in. The pre season performances were awful and it’s got worse from there. There were stories as early as mid September he was on the verge of getting the boot and people in the club had concerns. He clearly fell out with several players very quickly.
Difficult to know the truth but something has gone on off the pitch as well as on it.
Losing drains confidence but the players just don’t look convinced in what they are being asked to do

We need a new manager in place as soon as possible but we can’t carry on with Sage a moment longer. The defence is awful. The attack isn’t much better. We are getting worse under him and something doesn’t look right off the pitch as well as on it. Keep him and we are just writing off the next games. He needs to be gone as quickly as we can.

For goodness sake - can’t some of you see it!!!!!!
The players do not like Sage. Just watched their reaction at the final whistle - they all avoided him! He went up to a few players - they didn’t want to know!
His methods and approach to the game are clearly confusing the players.
For Gods sake Parish - put Sage and everyone at the club out of their misery!!!!
Phew - got that off my chest

The fact he’s fallen out with three or four players can’t be good. The fact the club were looking at him going only weeks into his tenure tells you something has gone wrong behind the scenes. No doubt senior players have made their views know to the hierarchy as they did with FdB. They certainly don’t look like they buy into the tactics. Not a surprise. A blind man could see they are wrong
