frankpingel Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Allardyce just said that he also had a look at the club website to see squad list and also spoke with his wife before knocking us back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 So £5 million and Bruce's contract!! I'm not an accountant but does that mean it will cost us more for Steve Bruce than Rafa? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Merse Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 If he had solely gone for Bruce I can see he may have viewed it as a Keeganesque type appointment whereby he can placate the thick Geordies with 'one their own' but when it's apparent allardyce was in the mix it just reeks of utter desperation . Its just the complete lack of anybody at the club who has any knowledge or interest in football that amazes me. Clubs like Leeds, southampton, wolves etc have appointed managers that show it can be done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBG Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 So £5 million and Bruce's contract!! I'm not an accountant but does that mean it will cost us more for Steve Bruce than Rafa? But think of the savings we're gonna make by continuing to use wheelie bins and paddling pools instead of giving elite athletes the correct facilities.

Big Geordie Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I'll be amazed if Ashley shells out £5million compensation - unless of course it comes out of the transfer budget. Bruce is a fool if he takes this on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdm Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Trying to think of the worst/underwhelming managers to be appointed here in last 30 years. Bruce has to be up there Worst top 5 In order imo Kinnear Carver Bruce Roeder Pardew 4 out the 5 appointed by Ashley Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I know I shouldn't be but just massively surprised they actually went for him. So underwhelming and can't see him keeping us up, never mind progressing us. He does seem to win as many as he loses and kind of a middle of table sort of manager but fuck me it's a massive come down from Rafa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
