Off topic...who's their manager now?

Not sure if it's different from his 'own' YT channel but watched a few recently of him on one called the 'kick off'. He's come across quite well on that I thought.

This!

Brilliant!!

Just read that Gazette article?!!! WTF?!!! I should stop being surprised/shocked...... United’s head coach said: “I put Jetro on in midfield, where he played all last season, and then very quickly thought 'do you know something? That's a bit unfair on him'. “Maybe I should have (thought) beforehand ‘it's a bit unfair on him, because he's making his debut I will put him on in his favoured position', so I switched him very, very quickly.” So you, being the head coach (manager in his own warped world) was standing on the touchline watch the match unfold before him, taking it all in, the strategy of it all.... like that often used analogy of it being like a game of chess, looking at his team and finding out Shelvey has a niggle and needs to come off, what does he do.... looks at his bench and goes "oh look, a new signing! lets throw him on, they'll love me for that, doesn't matter he can't understand me, here sheep, look at my expensive new toys!" The stupid prick sends him on and puts him in centre mid (not Willems mistake like we were originally led to believe but all his the daft fuck!) only for 2 minutes later to change his mind all because he felt sorry for him, nothing to do with what's best for the team etc but no, gotta make the new guy look good so in turn I look good. FUCK OFF!!! Ps. like how he tries to compliment himself for changing his position 'very very quickly'. Poor lad wouldn't know if he was coming or going!

Did it now?! Care to explain how exactly? We also won quite a few of those "tight" games when we where being "defensive". Edit: and I'd argue that being 'defensive' in those games helped us win them! Fuck nugget!

Hang on.... so he meant to put Willems in to centre midfield? So what was his "what the fuck is going on?" exclamation about then? or was that him just catching up on his N-O thread and joining in with the rest of us asking the same thing?

Brilliant read!! Well done!!!

Exactly! Surely if you went past your 4th/5th choice any prick with an sense of self-awareness would stop and ask why he's being turned down and maybe change what's being offered, you don't just go 'fuck you' and on to the next name. Fucking amateur hour!

From being emotional after reading that I'm now raging...just finished listening the the True Faith podcast with 'special' guest Luke Edwards. What a fucking fanny that boy is!

oh for fuck sake...sitting at my desk at work welling up here. :'( Said it many times before and I don't care.....I love that man!!

It wouldn't have made sense even if there hadn't been a miscommunication. Ritchie is never, in a million years, an outright CM. Especially when you've still got Longstaff on the pitch, who was forced out to the right as a result of the change. Well said and another point..... when bringing someone on, trying to tell the lad where you want him to play, especially someone who's grasp of the Geordie lingo isn't great.... how about having an ipad, fuck how about a bit of paper and a crayon with simple diagram. But don't worry lads cos brucey is a good man manager. Not got a fucking clue what he's doing!! It's like putting Graham Norton in the playboy mansion! FFS!!

Honestly, didn't think we'd turn to shit that quickly. Hoffenheim must be pissing themselves like. Fucking idiot bruce like...not a clue, subs made to appease the crowd, no tactical thought behind it at all.

hahaha... welcome to the future!

they've not got a fucking clue what they're doing do they? Oh, look at all those "super" fans leaving sharpish.

ps. the 'support the team' brigade really sound like they're getting behind the "lads".

woo-hoo!! second shot on target! keep the faith!!!

I'll be watching. Hoping for a sub 45k attendance and some decent protests going on.... tho come kick off I'll be 'emotionally involved'... Fucking hate the FCB. Hate the cunt for making me feel bad for wanting to see my team win. Hope he losses every last fucking penny he has!!

So they could be told you're not in the 25 but then can't get a move to another equivalent club within the same country? That not come under restriction of trade or some bollocks?

So for the 5 players getting told today they're not in the squad they can't go to another team in the top two divisions? So its either the old firm or abroad? Apart from our ginger cockback who will be called home to the s.o.s. where he belongs.

Tomorrow https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/steve-bruce-reveals-cull-five-16726318 Was the deadline for loans to prem/champ 5pm yesterday as well?

According to brucey boy he has "all" the attributes you'd want in an attacking player, he's got "lightening pace" and.... .well that was it.... He has not got a clue whose being bought for him!!

HOOFball incoming!!

Got a wonderful crop of players - only needs maybe one or two more - have the likes of Colback, Lazaar, Aarons and Gayle back so squad is very deep - Colback to be vice captain Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!
