Newcastle United supporters have taken aim at Stan Collymore after the former Liverpool striker suggested Eddie Howe could be sacked if the Magpies qualify for the Champions League. The Toon are currently third in the Premier League table, two points ahead of Tottenham Hotspur in fifth having played the same number of games.
Collymore believes the Newcastle owners could bring in a head coach with experience of playing in Europe to help further their ambitions. However, the black and white faithful have branded that call ridiculous.
Howe has unified the fanbase and helped transform the Magpies from relegation favourites into European contenders. For the calendar year of 2022, the Toon boss registered more points per game than any of his predecessors, notching more than the likes of Kevin Keegan and Sir Bobby Robson in years gone by.
