Quinn was just average, not the worst we've had by any stretch Thought he was dreadful tbh. Painfully slow and constantly out of position. Wingers used to have a field day against him! Think he probably only managed about a dozen appearances in the 3 years he was here. Krafth has probably already managed that this season.

People saying the near £6.5m settlement payment shown on Sheff Wed's accounts is what we paid them for Steve Bruce. Surely not?

Been racking my brains thinking of worse full backs I've seen playing for Newcastle. I remember Mark Stimson being bad. Wayne Quinn is another who I don't remember fondly but this lad trumps both them for general shitness.

Aye I've followed Aberdeen closely since I was about 5 years old and get up to Pittodrie a few times a season to watch them. Been on the decline for 3 seasons now and this season has been awful. 1 goal scored in the last 9 games! He's done well overall though and won a trophy. Nice touch the mutual agreement to leave. You don't see it all that often these days. No idea why they let cosgrove go. Was scoring for fun last season was he not? He'd gone off the boil as well and they were struggling to get him on the pitch as he was suffering from various injuries. Birmingham offered £2m which offset some of the loss that they were making due to COVID and no fans in the ground. I watched them draw 0-0 with Hamilton on Saturday in possibly the worst game of football I've ever seen in my life. Honestly it made WBA v NUFC look like a classic. You could tell in McInnes' postatch interview that he knew his time was up.

Derek McInnes leaves Aberdeen after 9 years in charge. They've had a poor season and are in a terrible run of form. He's left by mutual consent. Wish Bruce would do that instead of waiting for his pay off.

That's my line of thinking as well. Surely if the deal was close to being done or even if they were just very confident of it getting done, the buyers would be doing all they can to protect their future investment. To me that would mean them telling Ashley to chuck Bruce out and to add his compensation package onto the price at the end.

What a horrific line up that looks.

Bruce is never going to forgive him for scoring the winner against his beloved Man Utd is he?

If you listen to the gallowgate shots podcast, the female lawyer (Shell) gives a different interpretation as to why it was done. There is 2 lawyers, neither involved, neither really knowing what’s happening giving two different views. Best to wait for the official lines not opinions. Tbf Shell doesn't really know anything. She is a newly qualified solicitor and has zero experience in this field of law as she's never practised in it. Before last August she was telling everyone there was no way this takeover could fail (and in her own words explained why) then it did fail and she's now spent the last 6 months telling everyone why it won't come off. She's built a big social media following off the back of it I'll give her that. My wife has been a solicitor for almost 20 years and practises in similar fields of law to Shell and would be first to admit she wouldn't have a clue how this might play out. I agree what I’m trying to say is neither know what’s going on as they’re not involved. Yeah that's pretty much it. My point was directed more at her pre August when she was adamant she knew exactly what was going to happen just because she's a solicitor when in reality she had no more of an idea than you or I. She was wrong back then and now she's totally changed her narrative. She's gained around 15k followers on Twitter though so I'm sure she's not too bothered!

You know this will happen. He'll say there's nothing wrong with a bit passion and that Ritchie's not happy with not being in the team. The carefully selected press people who are actually allowed into his press conferences won't challenge him any further on it.

Agreed. Never been afraid to call Bruce out either. Their row last year over his bust up with ASM was brilliant!

Get in there Ritchie lad!

This patter is almost as tragic as ‘Mag’ on RTG. If you want to read blind optimism, I’m reliably informed there is a thread for that. Only registered on here 5 weeks ago. Already familiar with RTG. Hmm seems a bit strange like. Is it illegal to read the forum before joining? I’ve read the forum on and off for years, probably going back to the early days of Pardew. Some times I’ve read it almost daily, other times I’ve not looked at it in 6 months. I chose to sign up primarily to vent at the situation with Bruce. I also read RTG frequently and have done prior to signing up. I also look on a Man Utd forum infrequently, Derby County and Liverpool. I have an account on one of them, and might join up on another. Hopefully that won’t cause you any distress No skin off my nose pal. Just seems a bit of a strange time to be attracting all these new users. In the middle of a huge slump, looking a good bet for relegation, everyone sick of Bruce, the takeover etc and these new posters all sign up to add their negativity to the fire. If I've got it wrong then my apologies but I don't think I have.

An Allardyce special 1-0 West Brom written all over this. Will be painful viewing for the NUFC fans and half dozen neutrals who tune in to watch it.

The good news just keeps on coming eh?

I've moved from a 9 to a 9.5 now. I think this just about seals it.

I'm a 9 now. Fulham and Brighton will get a fair few more points than us from here on in. In fact if West Brom beat us I still wouldn't rule out them catching us given Allardyce history of pulling something out of nowhere. I think we're done and Bruce starting to throw his players under the bus won't be helping.

Still find it staggering how their takeover was simply waved straight through. I mean we all know the reasons why but come on.

Wrong.

Geordie? Newcastle fan?

Last 13, but, I get your point. Only one chance of maybe avoiding relegation and that’s if the useless cunt is sacked and a proper manager brought in - not Jones. My mistake but in my defence I can barely bring myself to look at the league table these days!

We currently have the 2 worst full backs in the league by a mile.
