Howson signs 1 year extension

Just watched it. Good interview. Be interesting to see how he gets on in the prem. if we get there. He will be remembered as a good, solid championship player, who is maybe not quite good enough to hold down a premier league midfield spot. No shame in that. Let's enjoy the rest of the season first.
Thought he was good for Norwich in the prem at times too be fair. Would be great if he gets one last shot at it with us. As he say that’s his dream and what he would class as success.
 
I would have given him a 2 year contract. He's been an awesome player for us. I'm not sure what his plans are in football when he hangs his boots up but I really hope he's involved with MFC
 
New contract for next season is probably a good move as it takes a security concern away for him and shows confidence in him. It also says be a Premier Leagiue player next season. It can't do any harm to his performances on the pitch for the rest of this season.
 
I thought it was quite a powerful end bit to his interview where he was basically saying that his time here would be a failure if we're not promoted as that's what he was brought here for.
I bet the years closing in on his career is probably making it seem more important now.

I hope we manage it, he does just seem like a good guy.
 
The guy is an absolute delight, a god like aura is developing. JH stands firmly next to many enduring greats in my opinion like Mr Mustoe, The Gate, Mogga and Supa Coopa.
 
Clearly he is enjoying his football and playing as well as ever. MC sees him as a key player and his contract extension was a priority to sort out. Done. Great business done and dusted
 
Howson is on that list of players over the last 10 years or so that have been a bright spark in some pretty dire times… Howson, Robson, Leadbetter, Friend to name a few… so glad he’s here another year, difficult to find pro’s in land of mercenaries.
 
He needs another 85 league appearances I make it to break into our top 10 (to go level with Pears). 254 v 339 currently

Thats quite a lot tbf.

All 8 games for our run in. Every game in the premier league for the next two seasons. First game of the 2025/26 season.
