In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Ok mate. Not exactly relevant in the context.
Did you see Palhinha's last week? Straight in with the knee and a forearm to the jaw on Gross, should have been off, then scores a goal.
It's obvious they just go looking for issues when they feel like it. Clear and obvious means something different every game.
At least City are good, though it pains me to say it.
Totally agree. They got the win today but I thought the ball was over the line and Gordon, who is bang average BTW, was offside!
Yes Arsenal are further away than them,however nothing like saying their invincible season ended
Really good defensive performance from us, the attacking was pretty much as disjointed as you'd expect given that we're relying on the likes of Wilson to play basically every week due to injuries.
Both teams were lucky to finish with 11. Harvetz could've went, he was lucky not to get a second yellow for the follow through on Wilson. Bruno certainly should've been off for me, he needs to chill, but having said that he's one of those players who needs that edge to his game.
Was Saka even on the pitch in the second half? Trippier tucked him away neatly in the opposite pocket to M'Bappe. Livramento made light work of Martinelli too... What a player he is going to be btw - three (substantial) appearances so far and he's bossed Grealish, Garnacho and Martinelli. He looks seriously impressive.
Joelinton - beast. Lascelles and Schar - beasts. The latter has been unreal all season, doesn't get anywhere near enough credit.
Really tough season for us so far, and it will only get harder, but a great time to be a Newcastle fan nonetheless. So good to have a team full of players who have so much desire and spirit.

Aye, Newcastle will never be a good team to watch. Even though City play good football, I iust can't watch it with any appreciation, it's probably down to the cheating.
Invincible? It's been 11 games ffs
They have the highest xG in the league and 2nd in xGA.
+16 GD while we're on -4.
Their performance levels are lightyears ahead of ours despite the moderate gap in points.
Arteta’s post match interview meltdown was a thing of beauty. 
He said everything I wish EtH would say. Now, I wonder whether he gets an apology or a charge for his comments.

Been one of our best players this season, if not our best. 8 starts, 4 goals, 2 assists and absolutely relentless off the ball running. He's one of the most unselfish players I've seen play for us.
What a coincidence that two clubs owned by totalitarian mega rich states get so many questionable decisions in their favour.
Feck Newcastle, shit club with cnut fans who think they have some kind of rivalry with us because they nearly beat us to the league once until their shit manager had a meltdown.

He lost it there. He's definitely getting a fineArteta’s post match interview meltdown was a thing of beauty.
He's not all that. He struggles to put a pass together and just runs around like a headless chicken, bang average!
Not a prayer, he will probably get some kind of apology and crowned king of the FA or something. They love him for some reason.He lost it there. He's definitely getting a fine
Can’t believe how shit Arsenal are, they’ve spent close to £500m and still shit.
Yeah dumb fans who completely sold their soul to literal murderers.
As someone who watches him week in week out, I can't agree. He's the kind of player who you hate when he plays for the opposition, but when he's in your colours you see his value. When you watch him from the stands in particular, his movement and workrate are second to none, he's the perfect fit for our high press.
I've seen enough lately as Sky are ramming your shite hole of a club down our throats. I'm not a fan but I don't have to be, as you've said, you're happy with him.
"Shite hole of a club" suggests you aren't exactly judging from an unbiased perspective.
I agree that we've been on TV too much though.
Annoying how teams get decisions we don’t! The inconsistency is a joke! We’ve been denied so many points by crap decisions. The goal against Brighton. The one against Arsenal where Garnacho was on.
Call it as I see it.
Maybe a little crass but following the sale of the club to a regime that kills people for loving the same sex, I don't believe your lot deserve anything else. Your fans contribute massively as they get overly defensive at the mention of human rights abusers.
A despicable Club
Before living in the UK, I never understood how someone can dislike Newcastle (and Liverpool actually but knew they were our biggest rivals).
Newcastle got relegated right after me moving there but nowadays it's easy to see why others dislike the Geordies. They're like a Lidl version of Liverpool - deluded, entitled and with a crazy amount of love-in from the media which is even crazier than the scousers, given they don't have many ex-players in media, except that human representation of vanilla called Jenas.
And those in the media call them a big club, even though they don't win anything but hey, they've got great support! Another clam made like every other clubs fans are of a lesser nature
Bernardo is flying right now, I’m saying best player in the league
We're a real football club, not a plastic sportswashing operation that will never have the respect of onlookers regardless of what it 'wins', so I'd gladly take falling whole leagues below the club formerly known as Newcastle if that's what it takes to retain our integrity.
With that said, we were the better team today. VAR is the story of the season, the talking point of every weekend and something surely has to give soon.
He was spot on IMO. Hope he does a Klopp and asks for the audio. Officiating in the PL is a farce, and the authorities appear to have no accountability.Arteta’s post match interview meltdown was a thing of beauty.
The fellow grabbing his face when caught in the neck is a little bit embarrassing, isn't' he.
Joe Willock getting racist abuse from Arsenal fans, disgusting!!!
Referee having a shocker again. No consistency in this league
There's 4 or 5 yellow cards there.
If that was done by our players, I can be 99% sure a VAR review would ve initiated and 99% our player would be given a red. That is the issue of VAR as they have not been applied consistently. VAR officials can pick and choose when they want to apply a certain rule to the incident and when they can choose not to. This is similarly subjected to human judgment. We should just leave the job to referee. Any errors are just part of the game. Typical instance of too many chefs spoil the broth.There's 4 or 5 yellow cards there.
Who was your top scorer when you won promotion to the top division?
I'm no fan of our owners. However, if you expect me to down tools and stop supporting the club I've followed for 35 years, who play in a stadium I walk past every single day, then I can't for one minute believe you're a local fan of your own club, as you have a complete misunderstanding of the love of a football club.
Yes some fans get overly defensive on twitter and the likes, I'll agree with that. But it's a vocal minority, and mainly young'uns who have no understanding of the nuance of the situation. Most Newcastle fans are uncomfortable with the Saudi regime but support the club. Just as City fans do, Chelsea fans did, and Manchester United fans would have had their oil deal gone through.
Debatable that you were the better team, I can't remember Pope or Raya doing much at all - but at least Raya had one to pick out of his net.
You did a lot of side to side passing on the edge of our box, but had no cutting edge whatsoever. Saka and Martinelli were pocketed, and you had no plan B. Lots of corners too, but defending those is our bread and butter.
What a load of tosh!
I've been a season ticket hold at OT for 35 years. Born and raised on Colley Street not 290 yards from the front gate! Don't understand supporting my local club? Unbelievable! You can use whatever excuses you want but the fact is you're doing exactly what your disgusting owners want you to do, sportswashing at it's finest!
To me, football is massive, it consumes a lot of my life. Not just United, I'll watch any game I can get but some things are bigger but hey, you do you and I'll keep on calling your club and supporters disgusting and desperate. Sold their souls for the prospect of silverware
It's easy to gatekeep from the outside looking in. But if you expect fans to down tools and just stop supporting their club based on who the owners are (something we get no say in whatsoever as you should know), then no, you just don't get it. Sorry. To me that's the definition of a plastic fan.
There are different levels of interaction. There was a period of time under our previous owner - a cockwomble called Fawaz - where my only interaction with Forest was to check the score at the end of the match. Fawaz thought it was a great idea to post a picture of him on Twitter posing with a Ram (Derby metaphor) he’d just shot in Africa. Fawaz was a prick but the Saudi’s are in a different league. Not subscribing to success at any cost doesn’t make you a plastic fan.
