These clubs are not the big six in football terms. Arsenal and Spurs have been dreadful and so have Real Madrid who are playing in a league similar to the SPL with only 2 teams capable of winning their league. No, what the big six are is the six greediest owners

Spurs must be gambling on Steve Bruce becoming available

It gives the so called self appointed big six even more financial clout, buy all the best players available and make it impossible for anyone to break into their club. It is easy to imagine these big six doing all in their power to stop the takeover of NUFC because it might threaten them.

The squad of players that we have are every bit as good as what West Ham have. A decent manager would have us in the top half of the table. Sadly I don't see us getting rid of our repulsive, useless, head coach unless a takeover transpires.

Jones may well have had a word but I doubt if the repulsive one would listen.

I read recently that Rangers have only just rid themselves of the backdoor merchandise deals that Ashley had put in for SD while he was involved up there

Bruce has not moved on from the old 442 system in which he played all those years ago. Anything which deviates from that is alien to him and because of that he has no confidence in the different formations he is forced to play. As soon as a formation plays badly he tries something else. He has no plan and because of that he has no belief

We need to get 4 points ahead of Fulham. If we go into that last game with just the 3 points and a worse goal average then I don't fancy our chances with the fat slob in charge

It doesn't mean that you're not a nice person?

I heard that Ashley is going to do something similar,like give away some 5% off discount vouchers for Sports Direct

I agree with you there. Bruce has already declared his point a game strategy. It's a pity that he didn't factor in the fact that you get 0 points when you lose

My biggest dread is not relegation it's having that repulsive bastard still in charge next season.

Burnley won't be pushovers like Spurs. It will be a battle. There is a possibility that both teams will be happy to play for the draw

The damage was done long before the last 20 games

My support for this club ebbed away when Rafa left then ended abruptly when the fat slob was appointed. Trouble is that after supporting them all me life, I'm 77 now, I just can't let go. I watch bits of games but the sight of lip licker on the touchline makes me hope for the worst and I get more pleasure out of seeing them lose than I do with a rare win

Why would you stay if 95% of your people don't want you there. It's impossible to succeed with that level of support and it must be felt by the players

Maybe we've had a big offer from Liverpool or Man City for Joelinton and we need cover

I wonder how much Ashley would lose if he put the club into administration

The value of the club must have already dropped without being relegated. I don't believe that we are trying to be relegated. If that was the case why bring in ASM, Wilson and the others

Maybe Bruces contract says that if he walks away then he has to pay compensation to the club

It's madness. Bruce still in a job and Rafa sitting at home

The fact that Ashley is doing nothing just tells me that there is no takeover. Even if there was the position we are now in must have devalued the club, the Saudis will want it for its current worth and not what it was worth when we were sitting fairly comfortable in the table.

Bruce is evil enough to do all he can to stop Jones being seen as successful. Team selection is Bruce's as are the subs, like Andy Carroll coming in for 60 seconds.

Jones said when he came that he would advise on formation etc but it would be up to Bruce if he wanted to take the advice /ideas. Maybe the ideas would work if carried out to the letter. Perfect example is Shelvey and Hendricks, if you wanted to play a high press where lots of mobility is required then they should be giving out the oranges at halftime

Bruce will think that when ASM comes back we'll sneak a win. That's the sum of his forward planning
