I can't watch his interviews, can't bring myself to do it

 

Aye, not heard or seen him speak at all, yet. Just glanced at his quotes in general disdain. Cba getting worked up.

To be honest, you probably wouldn't get worked up if you actually listen to him.

 

Even putting to one side some of his daft (putting it lightly) quotes so far; aye, I would. I have fundamental issues with his being here so there's virtually nowt he could say that would stop me from getting my heckles up. That little cycle basically made me ill under Pardew, so I'm just gonna try and avoid altogether.

See my sig. If I heard that I'd be worked up. Plus its not like he's an unknown quantity, he's been a manager for years and I've watched his teams, and heard his bollocks on MOTD. I'm fairly sure listening to him talk wont change my opinons

 

So you're saying we can compete with Liverpool, Manchester City, Spurs etc and a cup isn't our best chance of a trophy?

We've made a conscious decision to stop trying to compete with the "big clubs". That's the issue. We're all sensible enough to know that 12 years of Mike Ashley running the clubs means that we can't currently compete.

Aye, I appreciate that, with decent owners we could be a lot more than we currently are but as an evaluation of our current situation you can't really argue with it.  Ask any Newcastle fan and they'd probably say the same.

That's because we've been conditioned to accept that. Rafa set Ashley's business plan back a couple of years by highlighting what the club could and should be.

 

Gone are the days of us beating Man City.

Go look at the predictions thread, how many are picking us to get in the top four? Top six? What's our best chance of a trophy this season?

 

In fact let's take a quick straw poll.

 

Finishing position in the PL:

Best chance of a trophy:

But nobody is even debating that, but to have your manager come out before the season starts to remind us of it (adding the, great day out comment) just takes the piss.

 

Part of the reason we can't compete in this league is the fact that we have the worst manager in the league now.

Quite funny hearing Pochettino come out and openly say he has no say in the transfer policy at Spurs, he is only responsible for coaching. He went on to say they might as well give him his old title back of head coach rather than manager. It takes balls to call a spade a spade, it won't have pleased his bosses at Spurs.

 

Yet we have Bruce trying to tell everyone that he will have a say in who we sign. Grow a pair Steve.

I listened to him and can confirm I did indeed get worked up. Wanted to throw my phone against the wall.

Can't bear to see photos / video / audio of him representing the club and city like. Absolutely vile.

 

Agreed. I’m even finding it hard to come on this forum any more and see it being discussed. Rafa leaving and Ashley staying has ended all interest for me.

Nar, it's not. He's come out and said exactly the same as us for the last ten years which is a pretty realistic assessment of our situation. If he'd said we were going to compete with the big boys this season he'd have got slated for that too.

 

What he's said isn't particularly unreasonable considering our ownership situation, it seems no matter what he says he'll get stick. Fair enough, you might say but attacking him for a perfectly reasonable view on our prospects diminishes the effect of the actual bad stuff like attacking the fans protest.

 

Crucify the man for attacking the fans, for the shite way he's treated a decent club who gave him a chance. Crucify him when the season starts and we're adrift before Christmas, for taking Ashley's money to help run his boyhood club into the ground.

 

For saying our best chance of a trophy is a cup?  Just pettiness.

People are livid mate. It’s not a surprise they are attacking him for anything.

It doesn't need said though.  No (sane) Newcastle fan thinks we should be competing with the likes of Man City, and as a Newcastle fan himself he should know that.

 

All he's done is made us out to be deluded Geordies again that need to be reminded that we were in the Championship two seasons ago.
