The Managerial Merry Go Round™

Bruce to return to the club where his managerial career started after leaving their rivals recently who’ve spiralled ever since, would be peak Bruce.

“I don’t want to put my family through that again” Bruce says as lashings of gravy and bacon fall from his leaking jowls. Bruce’s wife stares on disconsolately as he puts pen to paper on the interim caretaker role at Manchester United. “It just wouldn’t be fair on them if I didn’t take this opportunity” Bruce starts to choke as a streaky rasher of bacon catches

in his throat, his fingers tightening around the pen as his eyes fill with water. Breathless, his eyes grow wider as he stumbles to the floor, his wife motionless. Bruce writhes silently as the darkness seeps into the corners of his bloodshot eyes. His wife stands over him, staring down at the contract covered in sticky welts of bacon fat. “Alex, come clear your father up, he’s made a real mess of himself.”

 

Fucking hell

20th October 2021: "Newcastle fans have made me a broken man, their abuse has finished me. They called me The Ginsters Nonce.  I am going to retire because I can't take any more!"

24th November 2022: "I want the Man Utd job, I can do the Man Utd job.  Pick me, Pick me!"

 

All thoroughly predictable, and says an awful lot about the type of person he is.  Fucking self-pitying thundercunt.

He was well spoken of during his time at Bilbao, he made a very average squad top half of the table european contenders and a few cup finals.

Barcelona he just couldn´t get them going and kind of forgave the low performances from their aeing players.

Would be a good fit for MAnu

If you look at Barca since he left his record looks a lot better than at the time. I know they collapsed twice in Europe but that Liverpool side that came back against them would beat the Barca side since Valverde left about 10-0 on aggregate

So Sheff Utd go back to Heckingbottom, who was Interim Manager last season but they clearly thought they could get better than in the summer, and give him a 5-year contract.

That's mad

Interesting appointment

Staying on for two years as an advisor as well. Seems like a brilliant appointment for them, it has to be said

[samptime29]

Good appointment tbf. 

[Guest neesy111]

Good decision by them for a change.

To replace himself?

Steve Bruce will just have to dust himself down and roll his sleeves up.

[Fantail Breeze]

Ah, fuck. A sensible/good appointment.

 

How disappointing.

[St1pe]

The Rangnick appointment is a much more interesting and ballsy move by Man U rather than the obvious move for Poch who seemed desperate for it. Quite intrigued to see how he does and what they attempt to build.

More intrigued by that than the interim HC gig tbh.

Yeah, he's going to go in for the 6 months and assess everything from the manager seat and from right inside the dressing room, and then the next two years overhaul their whole setup and likely recommend some stud manager to take over. Excellent move. 

[toontownman]

Brilliant appointment for them. Let's see if the fans hound him out.

[duo]

Slightly jealous they got Rangnick but realistically I doubt he would have come to Newcastle considering were we are in the League.

Underrated post this.

Man U have been transitioning since Aguero scored in that last second goal against QPR - the first transition was SAF's final throw of a dice with Van Persie, before handing over a squad creaking at it's seems over to Moyes. Biggest stitch up in football that. Not even SAF could have finished top 4 with that squad he handed over.

 

All the while, an actual club that have legitimately been in transition, seemingly every other season, continue to win - Chelsea. All I can hope is that our owners see what failures have been made by the likes of Man United, Arsenal, and in recent years Spurs, Everton; but more importantly learn how Man City and Chelsea used their fortune to actually build something, build solid foundations, build dynasties.
