Love shit like that. Like when we used to applaud the opposition keeper in the second half then give him wanker signs when he applauded back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking after the 2-0 win over Burton last night, Bruce said: "I honestly do not know where it came from. "That was news to me." And when asked if he'd held any talks, Bruce insisted: "No". More interestingly when asked if he was at the end of his contract in May, he replied: "No." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 We could stick a 20m bid in right now. Pretty confident they'd accept it, they're clearly not sold on him playing. I think he'd come too if accepted, unless we offer pittance. Such pathetic, small time, penny pinching from us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they'll loan him out for another season just to make sure last wasn't just a flash in the pan, then decide on his future next summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maze Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 (edited) I feel sorry for those who actually care anymore. If there is any truth in a contract extension, then there’s also no takeover on the horizon. (We all knew that anyway, but the extension is yet another confirmation imo). If the club, under any circumstances, were in a situation were there was even a glimmer of hope for a takeover extending the contract would not be a topic. Under this regime, Bruce is easily replaced. You only need a ‘Yes man’ working for less than peanuts. They’re out there.

nbthree3 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-united-steve-bruce-contract-21197708 Bruce told reporters on Friday: "I honestly don't know where it comes from or where that is. "Was it eight years or three years? "I'd prefer eight years. "But no, it was news to me." Ashley refused to sack Bruce last season when results were poor, and in turn, Bruce has vowed never to walk away from the job, despite its financial constraints, pressure and public scrutiny. The Toon owner would have to pay a big settlement package to Bruce if he decided to change manager, but the reality is that Bruce has done a similar job to Benitez, finishing 13th and 12th, securing survival long before the final day. Chief Newcastle United Writer for the Evening Chronicle, Lee Ryder everyone... if you're looking only at the league table and points "accumulated" yes. But it's a cover-up for the blatant stagnation hidden beneath and surely Lee recognises that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 This is all looking like a replay of his Sunderland career, if he can't get Wilson scoring (like he couldn't with Bent the second season) he's knackered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nbthree3 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 (edited) Finished 13th and 10th with Sunderland, 44 and 47 points. He's actually done better in actual points there than he did here! Marginally... we are Sunderland 10 years ago really. Least they had the foresight to get rid, but didn't follow up convincingly time and time again opting for short-term managers Edited August 1, 2021 by nbthree3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I mean, it clearly isn't a dig at Bruce, not from Wilson anyway. Wilson probably quite likes Bruce, for all we know. It's more a humiliating reveal of Bruce's incompetence from a senior player; even better in a way cos it's completely honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Many footballers don't really care who the manager is. Him being a 'nice bloke' is probably enough for a lot of them, especially the ones who have ended up at Newcastle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 It's implicit though not a 'dig'. When your problems as a team stem from a lack of forethought and tactics don't be shocked when it's argued as criticism. Wouldn't be so bad if Bruce wasn't a thin skinned little bitch who needs little media bitches to stroke his fragile wittle ego. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
