  1. No doubt we will hear this is the Bruce way after the game and we are showing signs of the hard work changing the mindset paying off. This feels like a huge moral victory for Bruce. No way he gets sacked tomorrow.
  2. If we had someone that could take set pieces we could be 4 or 5 up.
  3. Not even a day on the job, literally and look at the effect Graeme Jones has had on the players. Did he do the half time team talk or did Biesla and Bruce accidently swap dressing rooms?
  4. The time and space the opposition gets in and around our box is incredible.
  5. Almiron fouled the entire way then told to get up when he goes down. Wilson swan dives.. FOUL
  6. "Seen enough today that the players want to fight and we can turn this season around. We just need to be patient and keep working. I can't do anything about what anyone else is saying. Thats up to them, but I trust my players and I know I am still the right man for the job."
  7. Murphy didn't take on board his piss poor shooting in the warm up. Closer though.
  8. Biesla mates with Bruce or something? Leeds gifting us everything this half.
  9. We are just clueless. These players are clearly better than what they have been conditioned into. well a few of them at least.
  10. "Well, I've been in it a long, long time, I've been in this situation before and you draw on your experience with it." Thats reassuring given his experience is the club gets relegated and he swans off.
  11. ...and Nick Powell... YUMMY. Are we actually already in the Championship? https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/exclusive-newcastle-united-submit-enquiry-to-stoke-city-regarding-26-year-olds-availability/
  12. Facing relegation, in desperate need of proven quality to give us a lift...so we slap in a few panic bids for kids according to reports, with Sporting Lisbon’s 22-year-old Brazilian midfielder Nunes and PSVs 20 year old American Left Back Chris Gloster. Bid for the former already turned down Sounds like us.
  13. If we are humiliated tmrw I can still see him gone by weds. Certainly after everton if we lose both.
  14. Get Barton on Sky or BBC, preferably Warren but I am sure Joey would go in to talk honestly.. before turning heel defending Ashley and posturing for the job until the end of the season.
  15. Key to all that, if it's even true, is the word "endorses". It is clearly not his idea or hire. Involved in the process ie he was told it was happening and he spoke to Jones. It is an odd one. Who is hiring him and why him?
  16. He is not as openly arrogant. Delusional yes, especially when it comes to his own abilities. Probably also why he is still in the game. Scale of rancidity for me remains: Pardew Souness Bruce - Carver McClaren Fat Sam - Despise him but his tenure here on balance was better than the above. Kinnear Roeder - Good honourable bloke and only on there because he was terrible as a coach. Bobby, Rafa, Kev and Hughton n/r obviously If anything Bruce far exceeded my expectations, I presumed we would be down by last Christmas. He should never have been here. It is as much as embarrassment as Kinnear at this point. Outwitted by every manager, young or old.
