Newcastle United fans destroy 'lucky' Eddie Howe after win v Wolves

Newcastle United fans have been left raging at Eddie Howe despite the manager overseeing an impressive comeback victory against Wolves.

A first-half goal from Mario Lemina on the counter-attack saw the hosts lead at the break, before late screamers from Fabian Schar and Harvey Barnes, as well as a top save from Nick Pope, won it for Newcastle.

However, fans were left frustrated despite having taken all three points as their side turned in yet another below-par performance in the Premier League.

The Magpies have taken ten points from their opening four games this season are are proving tough to beat, but it has not been enough to appease some supporters.

Given the nature of Newcastle’s late goals, both moments of magic from outside the box, fans are insisting they were “lucky” to take all three points.

Howe has also faced criticism for leaving the likes of Barnes and Sandro Tonali out of his starting XI, despite his use of the strong bench which ultimately changed the game.

Howe’s squad selections and tactics have come under scrutiny this season as a result of the lacklustre performances on the pitch, with tensions building.

Calls for the boss to be sacked are nothing new this season, with fans echoing the demand following reports of a bust-up with sporting director Paul Mitchell.

Now, they have been left fuming despite their impressive record this season, with supporters insisting their “luck” cannot continue for much longer.

Bluffer Howe with another steal, 2 great goals saved his job today. We have been battered nearly every game this season. Wolves played us off the park. This isn’t sustainable. We should have 12 pts from 12 HOWE OUT #NewcastleUtd— TonysSellersHOWEOUT (@SellersTonys) September 15, 2024

Still #HoweOut ,
For being such a coward— Jonas (@Jevrath) September 15, 2024

Howe is clueless but lucky.— Heero ???? (@1amspecial) September 15, 2024

We can’t keep getting lucky wins, it’s ought to catch up with Howe and this is really poor from him. #nufc— Akin (@A_sahin09) September 15, 2024

Why is he picking this team? I don’t get it. Hall is there to be an attacking full back and almost looks like he’s not allowed to overlap. Bored of it mate. Lucky to end up top half let alone top four. Watch Howe walk by Christmas and be England manager in the new year.— Will Smithson (@will_smithson) September 15, 2024

He’s so lucky Howe mate getting out of jail every week.— TonysSellersHOWEOUT (@SellersTonys) September 15, 2024

IF HE PLAYED TOONALI & BARNES FROM THE START THEY WOULDN'T HAVE TO COME ON & SAVE US, HOWE OUT????— Tony Kirkwood (@My5cherriepies) September 15, 2024

Eddie Howe gets out of jail ????— Durham lad (Bow) (@way4422) September 15, 2024

I’m starting to feel that a gap is opening up between the attacking options of Villa/West Ham/NUFC and other midtable sides…

Eddie Howe bailed out of trouble…undeservedly.#NUFC #WOLNEW— Its_Ibz (@ItsIbzFFC) September 15, 2024

Never been in the Howe out club. But we haven’t produced a top tier 90
Minute performance since probably PSG. We had injuries last year, but with no midweek games & a near fully fit squad, our performances and Eddie’s team selections have been questionable it must be said#NUFC— Devon_Magpie (@Devon_Magpie) September 15, 2024

Howe is finished and he has been found out. Clappers can clap all they want and win fuck all— Scott (@scottyt5089) September 15, 2024
