Kaizero Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 If you remove being an NUFC fan out of the equation (Bruce really isn't one tbh) I think most of us would be kidding themselves if they wouldn't hold on for £4m when their reputation is already tanked anyway. He won't step down, he needs to be sacked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn’t have to repeat this but absolutely no one knows what’s happening with the takeover until there is a decision in the arbitration case. the takeover happening & a change of manager are not linked in any way in this case. fwiw I think it’s bollocks anyway Duncan castles had us reaching out to Rafa last month Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MickMack Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 I think we are all being unfair on Wilder. He’s no pfm, hasn’t jumped from job to job, has largely performed miracles at Sheff Utd. nothing like Bruce except he’s British. Look at the footballing lesson they gave us with a far inferior squad. *Not that he’s coming anyway* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren't sacking Bruce, paying out all that compo, and then appointing Wilder if new owners are coming in this summer. Giving Wilder the job now, at this stage of the season, would be even a more ridiculous decision than apponting Bruce after Rafa. It's all bullshit anyway as Doubtfire is now here until the end of the season, at the very least. If he was getting sacked it would have happened this week.

I could definitely see Ashley going for him and letting the new owners deal with it later. I’d question why he’d come here when he’ll likely have other options Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
