Guest chopey Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I think he's probably right in saying that today's performance is more important than the result, but I think if both are poor next week will be hell for Bruce and he was warned by a lot of people including one of his best mates not to take the job. He thinks he's managing Newcastle United in reality he's head coach of the Sports Direct work team and I would have a lot more respect for him if he walked away.

Decky Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 What one-liners will we get today after our humping? I'm going to go with "you have to remember that this side was in the Champions League final a couple of months back". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Class from Craig hope borderline perfect, apart from this "Bruce has not suddenly become a bad manager." yeah he's been one for ages Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Hope is spot on there. Rafa would have controlled the situation, shielded the team and not get emotional. The few times Bruce has spoken he has shown a weak mentality which will trickle down to the squad. He will have a breakdown in next few months if he is struggling now, he has not experienced anything yet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Hope hasn't really laid into him there, he's only pointing out that Bruce is making a rod for his own back by being so sensitive to criticism. It's been said enough that Rafa went through awful spells in the last couple of seasons, the difference is he didn't give that much time to opinions because he was very clear on how to fix things on the training ground.

He's basically right in what he is saying, but if Bruce cared about Newcastle United and its future he would never have took the job in the first place, he's actually done more harm than good and by Christmas his reputation in the city will be ruined, Steve Bruce will not live out his formative years in the North East of England through shear vanity and greed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sima Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Fuck knows why Rob Lee is defending him considering that Bruce was part of a team that denied him a Premier League medal. Must be off his tits on Rich Energy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBG Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I'd honestly rather not have people who class themselves as "true Geordies" associated with the club. Lee should know better than to spout shite like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know. "Refused it". Just spouting off. Putting it out there and testing the waters ready for his big return on big money to clear up bruces mess for big mike.
