Guest Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Yep. We’ll get the ‘he’s taking the cups seriously and we’ve already won more than Rafa managed in 12 games last season’ brigade lapping it up. Hopefully we roll over without even a whimper on Wednesday and we maybe get a 1-1 on Saturday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Respect is earned not demanded. He seems to miss the point that the negativity among the fans has little to do with his first games in charge it's because of his record as a premiership manager Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyne81 Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Aye I mentioned in the other thread that the 1 nil win over Spurs had me feeling the same as the 1 nil loss to Arsenal. Just nothing. I've not seen his after match interview or anything but read that comment about him watching the cricket before kick off man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I doubt Rafa was watching anything an hour prior to kick off. There are still things to do, you don't just sit around and do nothing. Even if Rafa did watch the cricket, I doubt he would be talking about it during an interview about the game we've just played. It might seem petty, but I just thought it made Bruce look small time.

Agreed. Wonder if Mike's friends at SkySports would've shown that little bit of footage if we'd have got turned over? My money is on not. Wankers - the lot of them.

Wilson Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 He's as small time as they come. The comment about shutting people up was horrendous. He's got a fuckin long way to go before he shuts anyone up, and to be honest at this point in his career I doubt he ever will. Just concentrate on the positives and keep your head down you fuckin yeti. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Honestly reminds me of Carver when he was in charge. Too desperate to be liked and respected, whereas the best managers don't give a toss what others think, they just get on with it and let results do their talking.

Darth Crooks Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I'd be furious (well very near am) if I were an NUFC fan being painted as nutters by millionaires and nobodies because we're not casting 12 years aside and Rafa going in the manner he did. Spurs are a top side but we're still in the elite league and I know we're crap but are we supposed to act like it's the 2nd coming and lose all sense of pragmatism? Ashley will fuck Bruce over somehow its what he does, demand a dedication, let the mask slip of frustration all the while be a good Geordie and pay your subs. That thing in the chronicle the other day with Carragher, Neville and that poor dope from Gallowgate Shots was disgusting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
