It’s the desperation to slander Rafa to boost his profile and toe the Ashley line is what sticks in my craw. He’s their man and without being personal anyone who gets into bed with them can have that accusation levelled at them. Pardew has the fucking cheek to retroactively rewrite his history of his time here with a dire woe is me act which almost puts him on a par with the fat man. Glad to see the back of anyone now, no matter how decently they’ve done. Purge the rot.

Agree with this.

 

The way Bruce continually blames the negative football and shortcomings on Rafa.... that I can’t abide.

 

It’s the way the media parrot this, that makes it even worse. A few of them pick up on and highlight the horrendous stats. But too often it’s just Rafa is negative and Bruce plays better football and is doing better than Rafa was. No, just no.

He’s actually a canny bloke really. Only wants the best for the club. Joelinton was forced on him, didn’t feel he was worth the price we paid for him and he was told from the people above him to play him even when he didn’t want to have him in the team. He knows his hands are tied under the current regime but the chance to manage us was worth the hassle for him.

 

This is a horrible post - but even if it were true, let me ask you this: If he genuinely wanted what's "best for the club", why did he agree to take the job knowing he lacked the capacity to do the job?

Have to agree, if he understood us he’d never have taken the job and dropped his employer in the shit, again.The man isn’t one of us , he’s proved that.

For a guy who apparently had Joelinton forced upon him against his wishes he was sure happy to deep throat Mike Ashley in public in July for allowing him to sign Joelinton all by himself like a proper manager.

Both The Mirror and The Mail are going with, "Steve Bruce to be given 200m warchest".

 

He might keep us up next season after all.

 

:lol: imagine chasing ashley down for 3 years, finally get the deal done and have a 350 page document on your plans for the club and city

 

page 1 point 1: give steve fucking bruce £200m to spend on players

Given the difficult context, Bruce has done a decent job this season and deserves respect and a chance to confound the doubters.

 

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2020/apr/19/newcastle-united-seven-priorities-for-the-potential-new-owners

 

It's such a lazy argument, never mind the fact he hasn't done a decent job.

 

Simple question: Is Steve Bruce the man to lead the club going forward - can you see him re-inventing the team and challenging for titles etc.

 

The answer is clearly no. So get rid. Don't "give him a chance". He's not "earned it". Just tell him to fuck off. Every second he remains in the job is time we spend regressing and not making the progress we require.

I literally don't know if there's a word in the English language less suited to describe Steve Bruce than 'deserving'.

 

You could have perhaps made the argument pre-Sunderland, at which point he'd had a reasonable enough career as a manager and might have proven himself at a big club... but given his failure there, given he'd turned us down once/twice before then, and given the fact he went to Sunderland, he should never have been anywhere near our job since then.

 

And what's he done since he got here? A few wins, several desperate defeats, relentlessly bad football and total reliance on one player. Meanwhile he's gratefully facilitated the continuation of (/a return to) Ashley's policies which has seen us lose out commercially, with 10,000 tickets end up going for free.

 

The bloke stinks. He did nothing to deserve coming here and he's done nothing to deserve to stay. I literally can't see any compelling argument for the opposite. I suppose you could say, he took the job when no one else would which, by default, prevented us from going down and therefore retain the interest from the new owners. But is that justification enough to keep him? Barely. Maybe to see it through to the end of the season, but then what would be the point? You could stick Jamie Sterry in charge at this point, we still wouldn't go down.

I want this buffoon gone asap - the amount of misery this bloke has caused me during this season has been immense - seeing his fat pighead in the dugout has made me visibly sick at times

To all those who think we're safe from relegation, consider this. Most of the other teams will be taking measures to make sure the players stay fit. They are probably doing regular calls and skypes with the lads and will have them keeping an exercise diary. Meanwhile, our owners and f***ed off and Steve's tucking into the dry biscuits.

It's win-win for him, he'll get a pay-off and some sympathy either way.  Which is about the best case scenario for a serial loser like Bruce.

 

If kept on for a while then the support he'll get from his mates in the press will be nauseating and when he's inevitably binned off for being shit it'll be "poor Steve".  If binned off immediately, there'll be sympathy, a pay-off and conveniently avoiding the situation going to absolute shit so he can always say he was doing a good job.

 

He's already at a far bigger club than his work merits, the question of whether he deserves the job could have been asked and answered at the time of his appointment but generally wasn't as it made perfect sense as a Mike Ashley appointment and Bruce has a favourable relationship with some journalists.

 

There's absolutely no question now of whether this below average, behind the times manager deserves a job at a PL club with ambition.  He doesn't.
