He has no qualms whatsoever about managing literally any club that will pay him enough, doesn't matter about clubs being arch rivals, he'll manage the lot. Again, not unusual, people without integrity do anything for money. I personally wouldn't manage Aston Villa or Newcastle, if i'd already managed Birmingham or Sunderland. Maybe that's just me. The main thing that gets me is, he NEVER learns from his mistakes. He just repeats, over and over and over and over, like a fucking worn out VHS tape. Even when he's smashed over the head with why he's a cunt of the highest order and a rubbish manager and a poor human, he just plows on regardless, doing the same shit. He NEVER EVER learns. Most people learn from mistakes, this bloke just refuses to. Then he has the gall to be smug about a couple of decent results too, instead of just shutting his trap for once. Relentlessly rancid is a good description. Edited May 10, 2021 by LionOfGosforth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 I fancy a whip round to send him off on a surprise safari and we can pay off the guide to leave him with the hungriest pride of lions he can find. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's that lucky the pride would take pity on him and take him under their wing and give him a job chasing hyenas away from the kill, then he would fuck them off and leave them in the lurch for a better pride.

Numbers Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 (edited) No need for him to have yet another pop at the fans, if he doesn't get pelters once people get into the ground I'll be hugely disapointed (but not surprised) He's all about him at the expense of everyone and everything, fucking pork sword.

They'll just be relieved to be able to get away from their wives again. They've also got a 15th position to celebrate too, it'll be all smiles and asking Steve to give them a wave.

Yorkie Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 That's the word like, it's just very very sad. He's a proper dopey individual, nowt going for him at all. Was thinking about it more this aft and the TalkShite gig was actually very Steve Wraith. Using whatever platform he can to dig up arguments, point fingers and score points against some belligerent who isn't in a position to respond. "I'm the one talking at the moment and therefore I am the one who is correct, don't you agree?" Well, A, whatever you say bonny lad, and B, no one asked. And talk about endearing oneself to your fans, chatting away to Simon fucking Jordan like he's your long lost mate. Jeez Louise, no one tell him he was saying a few weeks ago that he should probably get the sack. Never mind the sneering and slagging of this club he does on that station routinely. Nice one, Steve, you're really talking me round by coseying up to that whopper; what a great move. Of course, that doesn't really matter to him. If he had more than the odd brain cell knocking around, or an iota of loyalty to anything other than his wallet/his own interpretation of himself, he might have educated himself before he went on and maybe put Jordan in his place (as if he could). But it's far easier to operate in any context when you've won a couple of games and are chinwagging away, pushing your agenda to people who will call you mate. Criticise? Please, have a bit of respect. Just a total, total dimwit, thick as a castle wall. I'm counting the seconds until he's not associated with this club, even this version of the club. At first I was happy with him right where he was, cos he's still the perfect representation of everything that is happening, but the bloke makes me ill, I can't hack it.

Wolfcastle Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Well quite enjoying something he helped produce lasted all of 48hours before his c*ntly personality ruined it. Suppose we should be thankful that it wasn't the usual doubled whammy of god-forsaken performance followed by snide c*ntery. So still the only mole he's found these last few months is the one on Ashley's barse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbers Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 He's a thoroughly unlikeable bloke, I didn't really have a dislike for him until he showed up here with his pity party, i detest him now and thats all his making, patronising prick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 He's been a turgid manager for 20 years and has openly stated of his unwillingness to learn and improve ("ah dowant really do tactics"). He's 60 years old and considerably richer than any of us will ever be. He could retire and overindulge his way to an early grave - but he hasn't. He's happy to carry on picking up jobs where he can - aided by his mates in the media - and achieving fuck all in return for the millions he's paid. He's a fucking rat.

joeyt Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Remember when we'd beat teams under Rafa (like the 0-6 under QPR) he'd consistently be telling the players where they could improve and using his press conferences to keep pushing us forward. One good win and Bruce is already dampening expectations telling us we can't be playing like Man City every week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same. We didn't really know him then and now we do. 'Better to be thought a c**t by fans but not manage their club, than to manage their club and remove all doubt" or however that phrase goes.

midds Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 "Newcastle in the last 14/15 years have been in the bottom half of the Premier League. We would all love to see Newcastle being back to signing the Alan Shearers of this world for world record fees but that just isn't going to happen. This is quite possibly the worst shite he's ever uttered in the last 22 months. The fact he's justifying his dogshit performance as manager for the last 2 seasons is bad enough, it's the implied "hey, this club's been here for ages, I'm no worse than the rest of them". The very fact he's come out and stated that the club's been in exactly the same position since Ashley's been here is damning. It's a backhanded way of saying "this is where we are, this is where we have been and this is where we will remain under this owner", he's not said it explicitly obviously but it's a tacit admittance and endorsement of the lack of ambition, hope and drive to be better than just existing in the bottom half. He's perfectly happy to be part of the team that only wants to finish bottom half - it suits him as he's proved he's incapable of top half management and it keeps him in a job and ticking over. Manager and owner are perfectly happy to maintain the (reduced) performance, one is incapable of improving and the other doesn't give enough of a fuck, they dovetail nicely and complement each others flaws and weaknesses. We'll never get the club we all want until both of them fuck clean off and are gone for good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
