This is going to push us into the next category of club, from stepping stone to destination HWTL

Him and Eddies’s first interviews have been so professional, carry themselves with such class

Who came here after the United links?

Signing of the offseason, Dan is going to be the glue between all wings of the club. Can’t wait for the future! ⚫️⚪️

Biggest signing of the new era so far. Great times ahead. HWTL!

Can only be a massive asset to the club its shows the ambition of the club and owners. Newcastle dream team

Everything I’ve read about this fella being so qualified and one of the best at the job, but little mention of what a sound bloke he is. What a refreshingly nice and well spoken man. Seems genuinely excited too.

The guy comes across very articulately, professional and ambitious. I think we are in safe hands going forward with this project. Newcastle United now is everything Mike Ashley never wanted us to be, I can’t wait for the future

This is what us Geordies have wanted for years, ambition and a team that has a go week in week out. Can't wait to be back up the top and fighting for a European place. HWTL.

He speaks so well here, can’t wait to see what he does

Another great appointment by the owners. Dan spoken so well here and is explained it really clear. Future is bright 👏

Proper geezer♥️ thank fuck we’ve actually got someone like him behind the scenes he’s going to really boost us in ways we havnt seen at newcastle in recent times

I saw my first game at SJP when I was 8. In all the years I’ve supported this Club I’ve never seen a more impressive interview than this one. The Club has never been in better hands. Happy days ahead. HWTL.

Let’s build slowly, take our time to get to the top. We want this to be a sustainable project instead of blowing money away like Everton and Man United. Let’s get back to playing great football on a consistent basis and never having to worry about relegation ever again by establishing ourselves as a solid top 10 premier league club. Only then can we start looking at pushing for the European places. There is no point in us heading into Europe without a good squad. This is why we must take our time and not rush into buying anyone and everyone. Slow rebuild is the key.

What a signing! Amazing to have someone competent in the background driving the club forward. Bright Future 🤩

As if we’ve managed to get somebody who actually knows what’s going on. A huge shift from the days of Wise and Kinnear! Onwards and upwards, can’t wait HWTL!

Good questions, good answers. Seems like a smart guy. Think we've got ourselves a good one!

This is so weird we actually have owners, players and manager that cares and we have a proper sporting director

Wow very excited for the clubs future under the owners,Dan and Eddie and his staff,loved listening to Mr Ashworth speak pure class.

terrific insight. looking forward and excited about the future!

Might sound silly but for the first time ever I feel relaxed about our clubs future, I know we have the right people in place to take our club forwards!

Welcome Dan looking forward to see you do your magic ⚫⚪⚫⚪

I'm so proud of the new direction, professionalism, and ambition of my beloved Newcastle United. This guy is going to be a huge addition to the club and will provide Eddie Howe with excellent support. 👍

You literally could not have a more polar opposite of owners, director of sports and manager from a few years ago to now. Ambition , professional and a short medium and long term plan waiting to unfold. Amazing

At last, a professional approach. A vision, a plan 👍👍

I love it here at Newcastle......BUT if Manchester United come calling I'm off. 🤪😝😍😍😍

This man has vision what a future we have hwtl

This is the signing we should all be singing about this summer. This man will take us to top 4 and europe within 7 years.

Welcome to the toon Dan. Lets hope you can be the strong hub of the wheel that drives the club forward to a future that is full of success

very professional interview like Eddie Howe. He brings respect, vision, experience, hard work ethic and confidence...you can just sense it with how he carries himself. This will resonate with players and staff both at Newcastle and elsewhere. Everyone likes to be part of a winning side. Big name players will be made and developed within Newcastle, others will want to come and play for the team..not sure how long it will take but it is being done right. Building a big fan base ..England..Saudi Arabia..and around the 🌎.

This is going to age well

I like the sound of Dan, very articulate and clearly already knows exactly what it is he needs to do and what he intends to do. Looking very much forward to the future.

Arsenal Fan here. This man is an Absolute GEM and has been for the world of football. His resume just speaks volumes of how he transformed Brighton Hove and Albion and West Brom on a such a tight budget. Now he's part of the most elite clubs in English football.

Giving me a warm feeling just watching this.

Really nice to see a focussed, professionally driven “signing” if you will. He comes across fantastically, exactly like Eddie, well spoken, endearing & intelligent. Really looking forward to see what he does. 🤍

You get a feeling that things are finally getting done properly now! Proper structure, link between departments and driving the club into the future. Hopefully quality academy players wont be getting overlooked in the future like they have done in the past with Toney, Forster, Tavernier

Well, this aged well

Welcome to Manchester United ❤

So excited love what he’s had to say

I’m scared of Newcastle United now this man he ain’t no joke he’s football mentality different

Remind me please. Who’s the team we call United?

Great sporting director(truly missed by all West Brom fans) and he will push Newcastle in the right direction that’s for sure. Maybe champions league qualification with the right recruitment in the next two to three seasons for the toon

NUFC making moves and I love to see it

Buzzing!!! Our club is on the up!!!

Love him already. Sir Dan Ashworth

Our most important signing this summer.

Let it sink in bonnie lads & lasses, we’re in for a hell of an upward ride! Enjoy the feeling of being UNITED, Newcastle UNITED! - HWTL 🙌

UNITED IS COOMING FOR YOU

The evolution as begun !!!!

What a sound bloke. Someone who talks football. Up the Toon!!

best signing so far....this man is a genius..he is gonna build an empire with Newcastle

‘Have one plan’ literally this is what we’ve needed for years. There’s been such a huge disconnect between the youth sides and the first team.

Soooo excited 🔥❤️

First impression a serious individual and a deep thinker, obviously a man with a clear vision, plan and focus, he has a template, he is a major cog in moving forward to the level we wish to go to. A significant signing at last everyone will be singing of the same hymn sheet.. For owners who branded clueless and no idea what they were doing by certain pundits, they aren't doing to bad. This guy is way to articulate for our previous manager.

Excellent signing.

He’s saying all the right things, hope he follow through, what a time to be alive

Signing of the summer already

He’s a very impressive guy, feels like a very safe pair of hands to take is forward.

Good to see another professional executive joining Newcastle.

Best singing then any other player. This is a great investment 👌

These men are going to take us where we have never dreamt of let's enjoy the ride

Thank you for sharing,...goodluck 🤞

Absolutey awesome news 🤟🤘👍

The new owners of nufc have been wonderful. I see we are growing day by day. ❤️

Speaks very well, got his head screwed on thats for sure. On wards and upwards

Thanks Newcastle appreciate it.

HE'S FINALLY HERE!!!!!! 🤩

Welcome to Newcastle United Dan I hope you half as good as you did at England, Brighton, and others if so we'll be playing for top6 thank you TOON TOON BLACK AND WHITE ARMY 🏴🏳🖤🤍⚽️⚽️

Onwards and upwards. New era begins. Exciting times ahead. Nufc fan from 🇮🇳 since 2002. COME ON YOU TOONS!

Welcome to Newcastle!! The monster has awoken and this is the right person to feed it. I can't wait for the new season to start, something that hasn't bothered me since sir Bobby was here. #HWTL

What a guy

How refreshing is it to actually act like a normal club now

Welcome Dan👏

Welcome to the Toon Director Dan! 🖤🤍

Bruh this is a GARGANTUAN upgrade from Lee Charnley lmao

Ashley brought in Dennis Wise. Amanda & Co has brought in Dan Ashworth. One of them is an ambitious forward thinking executive that any club wanting success needs. The other is a fucking cockney dwarf that i wouldn't shit on. Thanks Amanda.

Yes Dan, from Afar make sure you empathises that ;)

Worked wonders at a smaller club with a much small budget at brighton, he's gonna be a monster with the budget he's got now. Good luck Dan

What a great signing.

We are the GEORDIES 💪

forget about the next 3 months, wait for the next 3 transfer windows! If we can recruit 1 established international level player per window and also 1-2 signings to bolster the depth of the playing staff then i think we are in good condition to really aim for UEL spot in PL and really challenge for a cup silverware from the 23/24 eason onwards :)

Here because of the United news 😏

Welcome dan

Welcome aboard Dan and good luck.

Signing of the summer right there!

Welcome Dan 👍 ⚫️ ⚪️

very impressive comments

Welcome to the toon 😊

ASHWORTH IS A GEORDIE!!

But can he play right wing? In all seriousness, what a signing. What an opportunity for NU to have someone of his calibre. Not just for the men's XV but for everyone involved in the club. Exciting times ahead.

Signing of the year. Hopefully Dan knows how to deal with PGMOL Managing Director who obviously tried to drag us down last season, 5 obvious and crucial penalties were not given, wow.

Welcome chief, delighted to have you at my club 👍

Welcome to Newcastle Dan 🙂

Brilliant

Oozes class!

Gone are the days when the club are signing the likes of Dennis wise. Now this is a proper signing 👏

Brilliant signing for us ,some spark plugs on him like.

what you can take from both Howes and Ashworths interviews is the sheer professionalism and passion to do well and you know they have the weapons to do it just listening to them,I sincerely hope that PIF are going to back them and that's going to be the defining part ! $60 million for a summer transfer is awfully slim pickings

Lots on the to-do list 😉

Sounds promising!!!
