Guest Butcher Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 So you’re happy that 13th is ‘our aim’? What the hell do you expect when Mike Ashley is the owner? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Ashley or no Ashley, we should have been higher in the table than what we are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Agree with the majority of posts over the last couple of pages. A quick summary being I don’t dislike him as a person but tactically I don’t want him as manager. There’s a lot of ifs and buts in the question but what I’m interested in is what people’s opinions are on Bruce if takeover falls through? Would you keep him as manager? I understand it raises the issue of whether you could support the club etc, I’m assuming everyone in the right mind doesn’t think he should be here if the takeover happens and Ashley certainly isn’t going to sack him. Assuming we’re in a Mike Ashley word next season do you keep him? I’d still probably say no despite a couple of decent results/performances lately.

Guest Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 If the takeover falls through it’s irrelevant who’s in charge, the club will be dead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 He shouldn't be here regardless, but under Mike he's the perfect fit, a snake happy to accept anything to keep his payday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 So you’re happy that 13th is ‘our aim’? Once I saw that Bruce was taking the job I fully expected relegation, so 13th is certainly acceptable. I think ASM deserves credit for achieving that for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 He shouldn't be here regardless, but under Mike he's the perfect fit, a snake happy to accept anything to keep his payday. Michael Martins piece summed things up pretty nicely in the article linked on here. Bruce saying ASM wouldn’t be sold was laughable given his complete lack of control and the point made that’s exactly why he’s in place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
samptime29 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 The takeover is key. We need it to progress. So important it goes through. I said previously I'd be happy if the takeover goes through, get somebody like Poch in and Bruce can be in some sort of ambassador role on a good wedge.

Bimpy474 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 For me he's done better than I thought he would, he's still not good enough mind. His poor management catches up with him eventually, a bit like Pardew's does. The home record thing is only ok now in hindsight, it's ok because we've done ok away, hindsight is wonderful eh ? But whether we like him or not, the points total is decent and to say otherwise is a bit daft. End of the day we can pick holes in any argument, the points are on the board no matter how they got there. And he's responsible for it, tbf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

samptime29 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Saudis might just sack him or they might offer him some sort of ambassador role. I could see it. Again we just need this takeover to fucking go through. Taking too long. 5 games left. I'd be happy with 7 more points get us to 50 points for season.
