Fucking love Keegan, man. Like unconditional love. Hope they bring him to a home game soon - would love him on the pitch before kick off, but knowing him he'd rather have no fuss and just enjoy being in St James' again. Absolute legend, get a statue commissioned ASAP

Would love to be a fly on the wall in Luke Edwards' house the day Bruce is finally sacked. The relentless prick will be beside himself. I'd ban the cunt for life personally. Fucking weapon. Hopefully goes to report on Lincoln or whoever else Bruce winds up rinsing for the next few years.

Will be interesting if there is anything to the fact it's been pushed back 4hrs from the usual time of 09:30. Would presume not. If this shithouse had anything about him, he'd have said to Staveley on Monday he knows he isn't the man for the job and will shake hands on a package to walk away. Unfortunately, he's made over £20m from sackings (could be wrong on this, but I've read it somewhere) during his 999 game managerial career, so that's out the window.

Good luck to you and your family mate. Hoping NUFC can provide the release you deserve.

My worry with this is that if we win on Sunday, with him in the dugout, then you'll have literally everyone in the media telling us he needs a chance to prove himself for the coming games (more so than some already are). I'm not too bothered as we have what we wanted in terms of ownership now, but can't pretend it doesn't sort of spoil Sunday a little. Wanted it to be a clean break from Ashley - but he will go soon, so can't complain.

Had no idea about this. Just shows the difference between the two blokes really. 'Would just be my luck not to get my 1000th game'. Fucking prick.

Course not man, soon as Bruce is peddled you won't get moved online for hints of managers wanting it. Also, look how the takeover (towards the end) was kept under wraps. Appreciate they were apparently forced to do it fast, but Downie said yesterday he got wind 5 weeks ago it could be on the cards and nothing leaked. Got no doubt at all it just happened so fast that they've barely had time to breathe yet, but also no doubt the consortium have had agents touting their clients for the job. Still think they'll want a simultaneous announcement. Bruce out and either Jones for a bit (if he fancies it) or their new man announced within a day or 2 of Bruce going.

Been wondering this myself for ages!

Didn't Ashley (may have been Fat Sam's idea from memory) get rid of it for a while? I'm sure we walked out to Sham 69 for a bit during the 07/08 season - and possibly beyond.

Aye, the commentators thought it was the Wolves game until Bruce corrected them. Either way, hope he's binned today, although it'll be fun to see him squirm in his press conference tomorrow when he gets the inevitable questions on when he's going.

They deserve their tickets back more than any other. Apart from Rafa and a select few others, these really have been the shining light of NUFC in the Ashley era. Good on them for taking a stand too, when the trust perhaps didn't. Will always have my respect, as speaking from personal experience it wasn't easy. Top work @Heron and all the others involved. Fucking class.

I'd be over the moon with Rodgers, like. Haven't really thought about him as thought it far too unrealistic, however the noise does seem to have ramped up slightly with him. Said in another thread, if we could get him and someone like Campos in, it would really send out a serious message that we mean business. Rodgers specifically - in a good place at the minute - yes not a great start but loads missing at the back for them. If they'd have managed to persuade him via a vision for next 3-5 years, then it would be extremely encouraging as a fan. Would clearly be promised funds and investment into training facilities, for him to be tempted to leave Leicester who are probably about 3-5 years ahead of us, if not more.

If that's the case and he does (hopefully) leave before Sunday, surely that gives off a worse impression by new owners with regards to a PR win? Personally hope he's canned a minute before kick off but it probably looks a bit shitty to string the bloke along all week. No sympathy at all by the way, just if PR was considered in any way, taking him till later in the week, albeit hilarious for us, just gives Bruce's media pals a stick to beat them with imo.

Campos would be a hell of a statement. IF it was him and Rodgers, then fuck me. We know they definitely mean business then.

Had a quick look at a Spurs forum about their views on the game Sunday. This one is pretty decent They all seem to want Nuno out ASAP too, and want Kane nowhere near the starting line up.

Unfortunately think you're right. As shit as it is - I also reckon Shearer would have had his say to let him have his 1000 game. Load of bollocks, and ultimately could be detrimental to the mood and result. Hoping the fans can drag the players to a result, as Spurs are definitely beatable. Either way, everyone will know Bruce is on borrowed time, especially the players.

Me too. I’d go as far as saying the reason I actually packed in was the faith I had in the trust actually approaching the club when they were taken over to try get them back. Was very hard giving up 150 points, more so for my old man. But I convinced him the trust would do their bit when we eventually were taken over. Would be a kick in the bollocks if they don’t at least try, and it would just confirm my suspicions that it was a quick way to gain more members in 2019.

Agree, often thought the loyalty points should be a permanent thing. Maybe I am bias but some have to give it up for work/relocation/money etc, but would be nice if they still had option to go to the odd away day.

Shower of shit. Will be interesting to see if the Trust approach the club about boycotting fans/loyalty points as their 2019 scheme promised (still on their website now) or if it was just purely a ploy to gain more members. Would be good to hear from the members on here - sorry to be cynical but I just can’t imagine that cunt ever trying for people who left given he’s a super fan support the team type of fella.

Hopefully there will be another party at SJP & in the alehouses all over Tyneside when this pleb finally gets the bullet.

Fucking hell man. Crazy.

well found, tbh it sounds like a mirror image of what he’s done here 10 years later. Using media and talking shit.

Aye, 100%. I remember when Bruce had just taken over and the new strip came out. They tweeted something alone the lines of ‘don’t all queue at once…’ Fairly sure there was talk of them getting bollocked or even sacked like fucking Nazi Germany. They’ll be buzzing now.

Oh fuck, my bad.

Has funny shaped thumbs.
