Kimbo Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Calling people cowards for criticising Steve Bruce. if he was a foreign coach they would be all over him asking what he can do that British coach can’t. These mugs have criticised Bielsa more than they’ve criticised Bruce this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Steve Bruce says he can take the criticism as he attempts to build a Newcastle team which plays attractive, winning football. Steve Bruce has defiantly set his sights on matching the "mighty" Rafael Benitez's top-10 Premier League finish as he attempts to drag Newcastle out of trouble "I would ask the question what do you gauge as success? I gauge success last year as matching Rafa's tally of points, of where we finished, because that's where we are at this particular moment. It’s difficult managing the expectation that is obviously still there Make your fucking mind up you odious prick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 It's so fake too. This guy played football in the late 80s and early 90s the fans now are kittens in comparison. "This job comes with a health warning," he always says. Since when did he start caring about his health? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moyes might have earlier in the season, but he's had enough good results to not have to fall back on it any more. Don't even recall Mourinho bitching about Spurs fans as much as our resident gimp does. Arteta might have had the odd one this season perhaps? Most managers would consider the fans an asset. The mighty Rafa considered it a huge factor in the pull towards Merseyside and then Tyneside. Bruce seems to think we are the biggest problem, spends more time whining and bitching about Newcastle fans despite supposedly being one himself. Just fuck off back to Manchester man, then everyone will be where they belong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keegan, Bobby, Hughton, Rafa Souness, Pardew, McLaren, Bruce One set of managers embraced this and used it as a weapon, one saw it as a threat. One set were good enough and confident enough in their own ability to say it's a good thing, the other group aren't. We know which group were more successful Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because big clubs come with big expectations, that's part of the deal when you take up the mantle as a manager. If you can't handle that, then really you should stick to small town clubs where football doesn't matter as much. I'm sure Bruce would be happier at Hartlepool - or Oldham which would suit him location wise as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaizero Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 (edited) Pardew's main fault was that he was quite obviously on the narcissistic spectrum. I fully buy that Pardew thought he was the king and thought he could do anything even if he clearly couldn't. Liking Pardew was essentially impossible, but I always had a minute sense of pity for him in that I didn't believe he actually knew any better due to his mental state. Pardew saying the stuff he did felt like he actually meant it no matter how insane what he said was, which is down to me believing he's a narcissist. Bruce is just a genuine asshole/bully that insults the fans with intent. I have no pity for him and genuinely dislike him.

Manxst Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 He seriously needs to apply for the Salford job. Taxi ride from his house, at his ability level, fans onside from the off due to his MUFC history and connections. It’s a no brainer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He considers himself to be a top manager and thinks he's done a fantastic job under the circumstances. He's bitter that the Saudi people won't let him be the man to march us back up the league. If project zebra happens he'll be highlighting Rafa's spending every chance he gets. Oh, and he's probably never even met Mike Ashley. Mike probably wouldn't recognise him if he walked past him at the Milburn canteen. Edited May 11, 2021 by Candi_Hills Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That went through my mind as well. Almost seems like he's preparing the ground for his departure before the start of next season. Although more likely he's just trying to win sympathy and ward off any boos in the final home game of the season where fans will be allowed in.

You would've thought letting go of a world class manager for having too much ambition would've been the final straw, but instead they'll be more than happy to turn up against Sheff United to support the lads instead of their failing marriage.
