It's impossible to succeed with that level of support and it must be felt by the players Millions of pounds and he knows he wont get an real earache as the fans are not allowed in the stadium. Its just a waiting game until Bruce gets his pay off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danh1 Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I don’t know anyone who wants him here or thinks he deserved to be managing a club at this level. As much as I detested the man, even Alan Pardew had the odd supporter. I don’t know what their thought process was, maybe that one off season when we finished 5th. Bruce is the worst manager we have had in my life time, at least we showed a bit of fight in that final game against West Ham under Carver. If it goes down to the last game at Craven Cottage you can guarantee we will go down without a whimper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjohnson Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 This whole situation is Charnley doing a massive bottle job. If reports are to be believed he is in charge day to day. Even without any football knowledge at all, any company/director should be able to see that a 10% ( 2wins in 20) success rate is poor even ignoring competitors who are doing better. Regardless of his title, it's clear that he does not have the real power of a CEO. I don't believe anyone could be so oblivious to results to see that things arent working... So what is it? Fear of Ashley, overridden by Barnes? Incompetence? Assuming its a fear of being sacked himself for having to make a large compensation payout, then why is he not afraid of costing the business a few hundred million. As much of a tool Ashley is, given his money driven nature there's no way he would want a loss of the magnitude relegation would bring Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club have been actively trying to pave the way for this takeover to happen, why when he’s this close to getting the payout he wants, would he risk stopping the whole thing? It doesn’t make sense. Bruce has probably been begging to be sacked but they say no because he’s the right man to take us down Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if Ashley's NUFC has taught me anything its that reason and logic was left to die in the corner 14 years ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nbthree3 Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 The talk was obviously enough for Ryder to have to shoot down "The former Manchester United skipper has not been pictured at training in recent days but has still been heavily involved at the club despite rumours on social media he refused to take charge of last week's sessions."
