'I'm just glad this season is over' but 'interesting summer ahead'

We asked for your as a disappointing Newcastle season ended with defeat at Fulham.

Here are some of your comments:

Samuel: When Newcastle were taken over in 2021 we were promised change. You can't deny that we've been very successful since the days of Mike Ashley, but taking 17 defeats in a season is very bruising. The ambition to compete at the top level exists at the club, there's just something missing. This will be an interesting summer…

Gareth: Eddie Howe has took us as far as he can, thanks for the trophy but it's time to go.

Richard: It was an entirely predictable result and probably good in that recent results have been a little better and it wouldn't be helpful for the enormity of the rebuilding task needed this summer to be fudged by a few almost half decent performances. This season was a disaster before it even started and although I don't want a change in manager (just yet) I will expect things to be very much improved next season. This game typified our turgid, guileless and insipid season and, frankly, I'm just glad it's over.

Rollo: A miserable season right to the end. Howe's teamsheet, at times, has been bewildering to say the least. Last summer's buys have been damp squibs, totally out of their depth and what quality is in the team will be moving on. My opinion is a whole new back shop is needed as we seem to be out-thought every game tactics- wise.

Kevin: Absolutely shocking again. In my opinion, Eddie is responsible for this mess and should be held accountable. The team look like they have no idea what's happening and how to fix the mess. Eddie is the one person who's responsible for this situation. He bought the majority of the players in and has no idea what's happening.

E Walton: The pressure is ramping up for Howe. We need to hit the ground running next season or I'm afraid Eddie could be an early managerial casualty. Being beaten twice by the Mackems is not acceptable.

Decka: Sunderland rub salt into the self-inflicted Newcastle wounds. Well done to them. We will fight another day. No more panic buys. No more players holding a team - no, a whole city - to ransom.

Gary: Absolutely pitiful display from Howe's team - clueless, lacklustre, disinterested, I could go on. It's been a shambles of a season from start to finish and I'm pleased it's over. It feels like Eddie has come to the same point as he did at Bournemouth - he's relying on the same team around him, no new ideas or thoughts. Keep on doing exactly the same things you get the same results time after time.
