Bishops Finger Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Honestly there was nothing different in that Liverpool game from him except we had a number of standout individual performances and liverpool were terrible. Guessing the credit he should be given was for picking the side. When our keeper gets man of the match it's all you need to know Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When our keeper gets man of the match it's all you need to know I remember Trevor Francis saying once that if anyone was going to get something from St James' the away keeper had to be man of the match. Now it has to be our keeper. ☹️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 His comments about Arsenal have held up well. Remind iz? Was giving it big licks about Arsenal being on 14 points and being above them. Can’t remember the exact words. I'm also not sure about the wording but him and his arsehole mates said something like "above Arsenal in the league and in a quarter final, what more do the Newcastle fans want"? It boils my piss when they conveniently use stats to suit them. Not a word from them since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackyboy Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 No big skill required to pick our side as it almost picks itself. It's when Bruce interferes it goes wrong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattoon Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 The Liverpool game was one of those where the players want to play better on the big stage, nothing to do with Bruce. Liverpool were as poor as I've seen them in a few years, the match could have gone on for 4 more hours and neither side would have scored. Fully expecting a return to normality and 3-0 loss today and Bruce scratching his head that the same team in the same formation couldn't get the same result.

Paully Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 How does he not realise that he’d be getting hammered if fans were allowed in and would have probably been binned now!

Abra Dubravka Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 The guy is a walking talking cliché. Stan Collymore's the only pundit I've seen call him out on it. Everything he ever says it just filled with antiquated clichés. He's been spouting the same nonsense for 20+ years, and playing the same grenade football for just as long. Bloke's been senile to every aspect of top level coaching and management for years now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bimpy474 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Hold up, when we were allowed in we kept being told we put pressure on the players if we haven't scored after two minutes, or aren't attacking like Brazil in the 70's. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at the same time the vast majority took exception to the protests against Pardew. Paully is dreaming if he thinks those same fans would be on Bruce's back, or that Ashley would listen even if they were. He'd just laugh his tits off and hand him an 8 year contract.

Guest reefatoon Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Well done Steve. Your 77 min super sub has eventually paid dividends. We came away with a classy 2-1 defeat there. He was right, it can’t be changed overnight, that sub was a year and a half in the making. Keep patient and the good times are coming back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
