Shearergol Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 We're in 13th though, so he's doing a good job. We just need to keep staying in the league until a takeover can happen, then a manager who can "take us forward" can take over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Why does he persist with the line about "as manager of NUFC" like criticism only ever happens here. Someone should remind of having cabbages thrown at him at Villa What a fucking cunt. My exact thoughts when I read that quote! I didn't think that I'd dislike a NUFC manager more than Pardew but I well and truly do! I hate myself for saying this because it's giving Pardew credit, but Bruce wouldn't have had us finishing fifth with that squad in 2011/12. As has been said, Pardew knew he was a slippery cunt and he could actually take a bit of criticism. Bruce has come in trying to portray himself as a good guy with the best of intentions - but spits his dummy out as soon as someone justifiably has a pop at him.

Hated Pardew as much as the next man but he's a better manager than Bruce. Brucey boy is Carver levels of bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because even though he's a massive geordie working in his dream job it makes his life easier if he promotes the stereotype that Newcastle fans are more demanding than other fans.

Yorkie Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Aye, it's such an easy defense. Not true at all, obviously. It's not difficult to be respected or even well-liked at Newcastle. Just don't be shit and a bastard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 He said: "Quietly we want to go about our business. "With the help of my CEO (Lee Charnley) that is what we'll be allowed to do, and what we will continue to try to do. Bit by bit. "Hopefully it will make us bigger and stronger and that takes time. "We can't instantly do it. "We can't do it straight away but bit by bit we can improve." "And of course, we can't start to improve until we have finished going backwards." Don't know why you missed out that last line. https://twitter.com/MoneyMikeAshley/status/1319277990677626881 Are you Money Mike Ashley or is he copying your line?

Ankles Bennett Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 To me steve Bruce's strategy is to identify the potential winnable matches and to put the strongest teams out in those games. That is not competing its surviving! He focuses on cup runs to mask his pl inadequancies! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paully Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 On loan to Birmingham City in 2006-07, he set his sights on a girl who happened to be manager Steve Bruce’s daughter. His new team-mates laughed, saying he had no chance, so he accepted several £1,000 bets that he would succeed where others had failed. He ended up falling for her, which wasn’t part of the plan, and feeling guilty about accepting his winnings. But he burned through them anyway, like he did his ever-increasing wage packet: nightclubs, strip clubs, casinos, fast cars. Bendtner would have Sunday lunch with the Bruces, playing happy families, and then hit the town, staying out until the early hours and incurring the manager’s wrath — or dismay — by turning up for the next day’s training the worse for wear. He wanted it all and it had not yet dawned on him that having it all was impossible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty66 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 We brought in two or three players at the top end of the pitch to try to get that balance right between an attacking side and defensively get it right. "And there lies my biggest challenge here. "It's doing that right, because when we do that (attack) slightly we become too easily to play against the other way. "That is the big raging debate I have to get right - the balance. If I possibly can. Yes because playing a CM on the wing really helps with that balance Steve. Top work gaffer.
