It's very bad ownership combined with very passionate fans who have a tendency to turn against the manager very quickly when things go bad (personally, I think this part is due to years of bad ownership causing trust issues with the fanbase). It seems like the owner just got around to realizing just how dire of a situation the club was in after owning the club for a decade+ now. If by some miracle Rafa stays at Newcastle, I think in 3-4 seasons the club could be in a great place. But at the same time, if we aren't in the top 3 ten games into the Championship next season I could very easily see the fans turning on him. It's just a toxic relationship between the fans and the owner in my opinion and that toxicity spills onto the pitch.
