nbthree3 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I've seen a few questioning why we think it's lucky, or saying that it isn't the performance that matters, but the result (no matter how poorly we play to get there, the fact remains we got there). Misinformed people. The one who said we weren't lucky didn't watch the game, was going off shots and possession, if that mattered Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misinformed people. The one who said we weren't lucky didn't watch the game, was going off shots and possession, if that mattered Thanks for clearing that up. For what it's worth I NEVER read or listen to comments either pre or post games. I have a brain and I make my own mind up. What I watched tonight was absolutely atrocious from a supposedly Premier club. Nuff said! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

huss9 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 ashley will never sack him, but Bruce is starting to show signs off cracking. those comments about "tactics" ffs. wouldnt be surprised if a few more bad results and continued criticism causes him to resign.

nbthree3 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I'm sure you'll have noticed the account before, guy's called Raheem. Friend of the Ashley family allegedly, which explains why most of his tweets are baiting Newcastle fans. Says Bruce is building a "project" and we're attacking him unfairly because we expect too much. The standard. Good laugh when he tries piping up though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 He has a 50% win rate as Newcastle manager against opponents from League 1 or lower (P6, W3, D3). Alex Ross was sacked as Sunderland manager with a win rate of 50.67% and he was with a club actually at that level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Would still take Howe at this stage. We’d at the very least have a style of play and identity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I don’t think he’d have an issue. “I don’t think I was particularly surprised by his decision. It’s been clear to us as a club for some time that Ryan wasn’t going to sign a new contract with us. “No-one could have predicted what could have happened with the virus and the season shutting down and getting extended. “I’ve enjoyed working with Ryan. When you look at his career it’s been one of progression and improvement. “He didn’t deserve this ending. But circumstances have arose that made it happen. I’m sad for him. Now for it end the way it has, is uncomfortable for me.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK-421 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Sorry if Giggs, but just seen these quotes from Shelvey... Jonjo Shelvey talking to NUFC TV: “We know that we have got character. “Probably going back two or three years ago, we probably would have just tried lumping the ball into the box but the gaffer wants us to play. “We have took a lot of criticism to be fair over the past couple of weeks about not creating enough chances and stuff like that. “We worked on it yesterday to keep going, keep probing and keep passing the ball. https://www.themag.co.uk/2020/10/jonjo-shelvey-credits-steve-bruce-for-win-says-under-rafa-would-have-just-been-lumping-the-ball-newcastle-united/ So, 'lumping it' under Rafa, but I guess Bruceball is something akin to Barcelona, eh??

St1pe Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Awful, misguided quotes from him that has gone down like a lead balloon. Maybe Bruce does want us to be a more possession based team but he’s proven he can’t implement it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
