Happinesstan Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 The man is incompetent beyond belief. I wouldn't trust him to open a tube of smarties. Well ye kno, they're not like Spangles, but they're a diferent kind of challenge, which we've been preparing for by playing Hungry Hippos around the clock.

TK-421 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 There's an article on The 'Bruceicle' website by Gabby Agbonlahor, stating how good a job he thinks Bruce has done at NUFC. And yet the likes of Douglas suggest theres no pro-Bruce agenda from former Thomson House. “Steve Bruce has done unbelievable this season at Newcastle," Agbonlahor told ChronicleLive on behalf of Bet O'Clock. "When you go to a club who doesn’t have the best quality of players, are you going to play expansive football like Norwich City and effectively be down by Christmas? "He has gone into Newcastle thinking that he needs to make them hard to beat, putting the three centre-backs in the team, and win games by beating sides on the counter-attack and it has worked for him so far. "He has done really well with the team that he has got. If you look at his front three, he will be thinking how well he has done considering their lack of quality. "Miguel Almiron, he can’t hit a barn door, Saint-Maximin acts like he is playing in a school playground, doing tricks in the wrong places and Joelinton has been dreadful. Steve Bruce has done a magnificent job.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BirtleyMag Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 It really is astonishing how little these former players/pundits seem to talk about NUFC without having a f*cking clue. Chronicle are just as bad for publishing that as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I do think people underestimate how much of the coverage is down to Bruce being affable to journos for years and they all quite like him as a person. It's not easy to stick the knife in to a friend, it is unfortunately their job. What really bothers me is all the rewriting history to excuse Bruce, how continually it's mentioned how bad Rafa was when not so long ago they were all praising (rightly) Rafa's work to high heaven. As soon as it is inconvenient that Rafa got the team playing really well second half of last season that is forgotten and Brucie is trying to rebuild from a terrible manager, all because they want to share a pint with Bruce and hear stories of old from him now and then.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 The press will only turn on Bruce, if we ever sit in the relegation zone. And then it's a big 'if'. Will they fuck, they’ll blame Ashley before they blame Bruce. It will be the players’ fault, Rafa’s fault, fans’ fault, KK’s fault for making the deluded Jawdies have such high expectations of their wee club. Anyone but Bruce, who’s a good man, it’s his club, he’s on a hiding to nothing and can’t win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 What can you expect him to do when the players simply arent good enough. Looking forward to that rhetoric being shoved down our faces. We have some decent players just pathetic coaching staff that tell everyone they arent good enough. Funny thing about constantly telling someone they arent good enough. They will start to believe it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
