This is what matter. In assumption Staveley wants Rafa. The Reubens through their son Jamie wants Poch. The Saudis want Allegeri. You know it's coming, after a week of abuse when the takeover is official. "Toon-Army: Owners go to war." Battle lines have been drawn as new turmoil hits disaster club Newcastle. In an exclusive, the Mirror understands that the three new ownership parties are unable to agree on who they want to take the hot seat in one of football's most thankless positions. The one thing they can agree on is ripping away the "job of a lifetime" for lifelong toon fan Steve Bruce. Classy Bruce declined to comment but many top names across the game have thrown their support behind the former Manchester United legend and branded his treatment "an absolute disgrace." Speaking exclusively to Mirror readers, Paul Parker is one of many sending a message to the magpies new owners. "It's not surprising in a game now dictated by who has the most money but Steve obviously deserves better. He deserves a chance." Former Newcastle idol Kevin Nolan added "He is popular up there and people love him, Stevie didnt get given any resources yet look at the job he has done up there with nothing. You would think they (new owners) would want someone that knows the club and area." Follow us tomorrow for an exclusive sit down interview with former executive director of football Dennis Wise about what the new owners need to do to succeed at Newcastle.

I know the transport links are simple now but I would be disappointed in the least if our manager didnt live in or around Newcastle. I guess it's not the be all end all though.

One can only hope. There is literally no reason to keep Bruce on. To find favour with his press/pundit buddies? Does that matter? Will they really care? There is more damage to be done keeping Bruce on when they are going to bin him anyway. Get the new manager in and give him more time. If they don't think the manager they want to bring in could safely navigate the rest of this season with where we are at then he probably isn't the right manager to bring in.

Knowing his luck he will likely get fully fit and get Covid just before the restart.

Please. It happen. *Upon further inspection* It not happen. He going to Spurs.

I don't understand why people are fleeing out of the woodwork now. Where was this when the government first said they wouldnt interfere? People with opposition to what this means are just grabbing anything they can to throw to try and scupper the deal now. Beyond stupid now. It's one thing if it's the same opposition from the start but when people are popping up now it's taking longer just seems silly. They didnt have a problem with it a month ago when it was "going to be done in a few days or next week."
