Newcastle: Eddie Howe would resign as manager if he had doubts

Despite a run of one win in eight games, Eddie Howe remains confident and backed by the club as Newcastle pursues FA Cup and Champions League progress.

  • On Feb 8, Eddie Howe, Newcastle United head coach, said he had no doubt he was the right man and would step aside if he believed otherwise ahead of the Feb 10 trip to Tottenham Hotspur.
  • Following a run of one win in eight, Newcastle were booed off after their 3 loss to Brentford at St James' Park, increasing pressure on Howe.
  • Howe acknowledged defensive weaknesses and possession issues, took responsibility for results, and answered questions directly in a 15-minute club's media centre meeting.
  • Given Howe's past achievements, the club hierarchy continues to back him, and upcoming FA Cup and Champions League ties provide opportunities to turn the season around.
  • With just nine wins from 25 and no victory in five matches, club sources say by May everyone will know whether change is needed or Howe gets another chance next term.
