There's absolutely no chance that he'll still be in charge on Sunday, his arse will have been kicked down the road well before then. They're probably just being courteous towards him, which is fair enough.

Downie saying that Steve Bruce is currently taking training, then they showed a zoomed in shot of him waddling up and down the edge of the pitch on his own, with his mobile phone to his ear.

and how he individually took all the glory and acclaim when it was quite clearly the introduction of Jones which made the big difference in that run of games.

So, what's that? 40 points a season? Fucking hell!

"It's a good job that my parents are not around to see this, me not getting to 1,000 games would break their heart"

Yeah, it came on a rectangular patch and you had to cut it out with a pair of scissors. My Mam spent ages hand stitching it on to my shirt but it looked shit so I ended up unpicking it after a couple of weeks.

Saw a supposed quote attributed to Bruce earlier which was something along the lines of "it's a good job my parents are dead because the abuse I've received as Newcastle manager would've destroyed them". He didn't really say that, did he?

Just been out for a run and there was an Amazon van leaving the training ground as I passed. Hopefully whoever was put in charge of buying Fat Stephen's leaving gift has a subscription to Prime. "Gaffa, we've had a whip round and bought you this book, it's called Dust Yourself Down - 1,001 Excuses for a Sleeve Rolling Cunt".

Oh dear!

This - he's been so fucking dogshit this season that even just removing him from the club is sufficient to improve our chances of victory on Sunday.

A friend of my brother-in-law plays cricket(?) with a couple of the squad and as far as they are concerned Bruce has already gone. i know that this isn't earth shattering information but for anyone who thinks there's a chance that he'll still be in charge on Sunday, he won't.

Yep, Scoreboard for me as well. Amazing times...until it pissed it down.

... When the half time entertainment was someone pissing down your leg, and this:

I've actually got that full game on video cassette somewhere, it's one of those which was distributed to pubs when they used to show the blue star match on a Sunday after the games. My Dad won it in a raffle at work (he worked for S&N).

"To those who banned it up the bum"

Conte, or Steve Evans.

Yeah, the Saudi flag waving is just shite and makes me feel uncomfortable. Rightly or wrongly, I'm not that arsed about people hoying tea towels on their nappa because you can just brush that off as banter, but the flag waving is dreadful.

Just beautiful. Don't mind admitting that I shed a couple of tears watching that, it's all just so incredible. Having someone in charge who actually loves the club and isn't going to take us for mugs...wow!

They appear to have been on about a five hour lag to every other outlet. Think they're just trying to spin out the drama but it's just making them look even more shit.

I need to go for a shit but I really don't want to be in the lavvy when it's announced. Not sure whether to stick or twist.

Watching them attempting to assume the moral high ground in order to hide their bitter, bitter tears is fucking glorious.

Still chuckling at the judge totally pieing off and laughing at Lewis' argument of not having enough time to prepare both cases.
