Branston Pickle 3,702 Posted April 23, 2023 (edited) I’d be interested to see the list of those who thought he would have no future at Newcastle? I don’t even recall it being discussed. Edit - people perhaps did think Newcastle would splash huge amounts here, there and everywhere, but it’s actually good to see that they didn’t feel the need to (yet) - despite their owners being totally unfit on any level.

He's not made it up- first couple of seasons he struggled and was loaned out to West Brom and Sheffield Wednesday. Most Newcastle fans will tell you he's improved amazingly. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There was definitely an element of people on here enjoying him struggling from memory. Not loads but plenty of our fans are resentful of anyone who has the temerity to leave us and for some reason the Murphy brothers were particularly popular targets. Never understood it myself.

Chichcan 148 Posted April 23, 2023 My brother in law is an Oxford fan so I've watched them a few times this year. Josh Murphy has ended up there and is super unpopular. Apparently his attitude is terrible. I saw them against Bolton last weekend and he started and got booed whenever he tried anything and got hooked off at half time to the biggest cheer of the afternoon I felt sorry for him - he was always the promising twin.

Watching them I always felt Josh appeared to be the more naturally talented one, Jacob more limited. Maybe the fact things came easier to Josh meant he never developed the same work ethic that Jacob clearly has. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chichcan 148 Posted April 23, 2023 You're probably right I always thought Jacob worked really hard to develop an all round game and turn himself into a team player, but Josh just relied on individual moments of magic He does give the impression that he feels he is too good for Oxford. I can understand why their fans are unimpressed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
