Yorkie Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Bruce is a chancer and an enabler. And the pity-me shit just makes him a complete arsehole. There's one battleground at NUFC as far as I'm concerned - the fight against Ashley. And if you're not with us, you're against us. Pretty much like Pardew: Bruce isn't the main issue but he's a contributing factor by virtue of his being here, so he can get fucked. Any stick he gets is justifiable in some way.

samptime29 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Bruce has done nothing but insult my intelligence since getting the job. Why shouldn't I insult him back? Calling him a fat cunt on a message board is childish. Be critical of footballing issues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LV Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 He is a fat cunt though. He's just fat. Like Rafa was. But just with many many less trophies. And tactics. And integrity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Getting sacked over the phone is a legitimate thing to discuss in the article. He behaved poorly at Sheff Wed - that's snide behaviour for sure. Yes it is, so why is he whining, about getting sacked by phone? Thats the only reason people are pissed about it and rightly so He was snided with the phone call sacking and he was snide to Sheff Wed. It's just part of the story. The other part of the story is that he's a shit manager and no football writer can actually pinpoint what he's good at. That's the reason why I call him a fucking cabbage, although by all means he can prove me wrong in the next couple of seasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteV Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Bruce has done nothing but insult my intelligence since getting the job. Why shouldn't I insult him back? Because it's fairly childish and pathetic? No-one's suggesting 'supporting' or 'liking' him. But as I said, if you constantly pull him to bits for nothing, the criticism that he should genuinely receive gets lost in a sea of vulgarity and pettiness. Everyone fumes about journo's allegedly going with the narrative of 'Newcastle fans haven't given Bruce a fair shake' or 'Bruce's job is even better considering the fans are against him'. Well this just plays right into that narrative... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteV Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 He is a fat cunt though. He's just fat. Like Rafa was. But just with many many less trophies. And tactics. And integrity. So criticise his tactics, his lack of trophies and his integrity, rather than just resorting to "fat cunt" or cabbage head". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The line about him being sacked on the phone - it's a just a line to build context in a story. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteV Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Face like a smashed cauliflower? Is that ok? It suggests you haven't got the ability to effectively critique his managerial capabilities/performance. But the choice is yours. Anyway, I think i've made my point about why I think throwing random personal insults his way isn't helpful. I'll not continue to labor the point any further.

Gallowgate End Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Talksport were just trying to find out if Rafa had ever won 3 games in a row at Newcastle only to find out he’d went on a 4 game winning run Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Tried his own tactics. Couldn’t win a game. Went with Rafa tactics, up for manager of the month. Still blamed Rafa because the players were effective with Rafa tactics. But Bruce is better than Rafa like ‘cos he’s got us in the top 15. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Aye. He’s going to be like Pardew unless we get taken over. As long as he’s comfortable around 13th, Ashley will keep him there. It’ll only be if it’s a McClaren situation and we look in deep shit with about 8 games to go that he’ll be sacked. I'm clinging on to some hope he'll go in a huff when Ashley doesn't let him sign some shite carthorse he's keen on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelphish Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Perhaps Brucey's boys can have an adult conversation about it while they're cheering on his black and white army. Give iz a wave n' all that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 I think today's game will be a good guage of Bruce and how his side play against a newly promoted team bringing his former team here. Newcastle have had a few years start on Villa and with Rafa's tactics well drilled into the 11, we should be better and more coherent than Villa. I would even take 40% possession given we are the away team, as long as it is part of the gameplan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
