And I hope we never stop doing that.

I'm hoping we actually make a start at it before I pop my clogs

Good to see the Jambos maintaining an interest - must have acquired more reading skills since Vlad said “the people that will invest are the simple fans”…

[glenberviehibee]

Stay 100%

Only 27 of them though.

We never do though. Unless we sign SPL ready players or grow our own

[HendoDelivered]

Stay 👍🏼

[Exuberance1875]

Should be nothing more than a squad player IMO.

[Brooster]

Stay but he needs more games like yesterday.

Everyone still happy with their votes?

There’s threads across here and on the PM forum discussing Rocky, Wollacot, Hanlon as well as Newell being discussed disparagingly by balanced/positive posters across various threads after today’s game. Is it just my post and this general thread you take exception to?

[HIBERNIAN-0762]

Didn't look interested today 😔

Anytime I have looked at a JN thread for the last 12M, you are all over it. I totally get you don't rate him mate (and your view is no less valid than anyone else's), but the sheer number of posts you make saying the same things skews the argument.

As most will say, Joe Newell is the least of our problems.

As I said before, he is th

[TheCabbage]

Go.
Don’t employ convicted drunk drivers

[Hibbyradge]

Go.

We need someone who dictates the game from the middle.

Joe couldn't dictate a letter to a receptive typist.

[CapitalGreen]

0 tackles & 3 fouls today against a midfield containing Connor Randall. Pitiful.

[JohnM1875]

Not for the first time this season I’d say that’s his worst performance in a very long time. Something definitely not right the last wee while.

[Greensunshine]

I like Joe, he’s got real quality. However I would question his overall fitness. Blows out his arse early second half and starts diving into tackles he’s never winning.

Time to go.

[NC1875]

Hopefully NM pisses off back to OZ and takes Joe with him. 👋🏽

[B.H.F.C]

He had a wee burst of energy after we went 2-1 down. Ran over to take a long throw. Then ran to tackle their goalie when the ball was out of play and he was trying to waste time. Shame he never showed that kind of urgency when the ball was loose in the middle of the park for the previous 90 minutes.

He’s been central to too much crap for me. Time for change.

I’m not in the stay category as I think he lacks real innate desire but in fairness, as a midfielder, it’s not easy playing there when essentially we are 4-2-4 and you have Boyle and Emi (or whoever) playing high and leaving him and AN Other to do all the grafting - it’s no surprise he fades badly. That said, as technically good he is with the ball (and he is), he always severely lacks drive - which you need as a midfielder who has the technical ability to get forward and create. The poor tackling is at times no doubt frustration, but for me, he’s on the “go” list - I genuinely believe we wouldn’t miss him if we got in the right blend and character in midfield, and I mean on field character because he’s a genuinely nice lad. Just doesn’t have the leadership qualities you need at this level as a senior pro for me. Playing really well one in five or six games isn’t good enough.

[Hibs4185]

Newell epitomises everything that has been wrong with the club over the last few years.

Hes a decent player but he has to go. He loves the club and Edinburgh but that’s half the problem. Hes too comfortable.

Need to clear the rot out before it gets too ingrained

[IberianHibernian]

He`s obviously a very talented player who makes some great passes and could probably play at a higher level . Doesn`t miss many matches through injury either . But he doesn`t seem to get the best out of younger teammates , gives away several unnecessary fouls every match and doesn`t seem to fit in to any system where we`re trying to play fast , attractive football . Well aware his replacement ( if he leaves ) may well be less talented but given Joe`s age I can`t see him making a much bigger impact if at all than now .

His level of consistency or ability. Goes missing so many times

Dunno, is it the same thing as when he was putting in s*** performances under Johnson and Maloney?

[blackpoolhibs]

Another class performance from Joe again, what would we do without him.
