I don't think Bruce is intelligent enough to be clever with his words. If he's commented about not being in the job much longer, that'll be him trying to be funny in light of all the criticism he's been getting. He isn't daft enough to let slip something about the takeover though.

I think Ashley would only sack him if we were clearly cut adrift at the bottom. I think we'll stumble around 4th/5th bottom eventually and Ashley will gamble on luck keeping us out of the bottom three. Bruce is a perfectly willing puppet; Ashley will only let him go in an extreme situation imo.

I'm not quite there yet. Feels like we've had these kind of tenuous links before.

I can't get wound up by things like this any more as it's clearly them just sticking up for a mate and not a genuine opinion. I think we all know now that if he was called Stefano Brucioni they'd be tearing him apart.

What's the context of this and where's it taken from? All it seems to do is confirm that Bendtner is a complete prick (as were his fellow BCFC team mates).

Ah, remember those early days when the Companies House changes were found and it felt like the takeover was just days away

Knowing our luck, he's been sacked for fraud and has had all assets and savings seized.

Aye. "Take it to the wire" FFS. He's not fit, man.

Because even though he's a massive geordie working in his dream job it makes his life easier if he promotes the stereotype that Newcastle fans are more demanding than other fans. So yeah, massive cunt. That's the angle he's trying to promote and it winds me up massively.

Why does he persist with the line about "as manager of NUFC" like criticism only ever happens here. Someone should remind of having cabbages thrown at him at Villa What a fucking cunt.

I have to be honest, I have no clue as to what is going on here

Empty, vacuous, bullshit

He did. Always seemed to do better when he wasn't given much money so this could be his dream job

Fucking hell

Really sad

He's parked on Barrack Road, biding his time.

I find this an interesting comment because if you want to accuse someone of that, I would have to argue that it's possible that you yourself are guilty of this. You maintained last season that 'Bruce was doing ok'. I think many people would say that what happened last season was in spite of Bruce and not because of him. That's gleaned from many years of watching football (and personal experience with Pardew) Some people might say that that shows a basic lack of understanding of football from you. Others would say it's your opinion. If you don't agree with someone's opinion, give them a counter argument, don't belittle them.

Sums him up perfectly. I have no problem with his affinity to Manchester United but he has absolutely zero connection with NUFC.

It does make for an interesting discussion

Bit harsh just because someone has an opinion, regardless of how wrong you think they are.

Yeah. He's widely regarded to be one of England's best uncapped players. He was a good player.

Attention seekers. They're everywhere. Just stick him on the ignore list. I did back in May, works a treat. Dont really understand how people complain about him when there is an ignore list. That's a fair comment. With Penn, I quite enjoy laughing at their sadness.

Whoever Penn[/member] is, they are quite pathetic to continue with the persona that they have developed. I don't see what they get out of it except some weird sense of superiority because they feel that they've put someone in their place.

Harsh on Rod, that! Not quite as bad as believing a random on here because he gets team news though, is it? Knowing someone who knows someone on the first team staff =/= having any sort of source with Ashley, his solicitors, or the now non-existent 'consortium'. Still, probably a step up from the parody Twitter account! Ey up. School has finished for the day.

Your swing from one extreme to the other has been quite impressive. You were so positive and convinced it was going to happen mid may, and now you are so negative and convinced that Bruce is safe and he knows what's happening. I was sure it was happening and it didn’t so now I’ve got to try the other way as well, you never know! I like your thinking.
