Ben Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Ahh fuck it......we all know he's going, after my initial disappointment that he wasn't sacked earlier in the week I'm now happy the club are going about it in a professional manner and lining up the right man before pushing him out. Let him have his 1000th game, hopefully a win and then let's rise above the shit Ashley left us in and give him a send off to make (not Bruce) but us fans proud that we can be exactly what the Likes of Luke Edwards think we are not. A handshake and a farewell as we move onto better days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 I'm at peace with it all now. Let them proceed as they must. They're obviously doing some due diligence with some top people in football, and so in due course things will all play out. The only thing that is really going to be annoying is that the fans will get painted in a bad light if they have a go at Bruce on Sunday, which will be a real kick in the teeth, as he's been taking the piss out of them since he took the job and it will be exactly what he has been asking for.

Different post season as you aren't under pressure to get someone in so can do a more extensive search Pretty sure they can, they just can't talk to a manager employed by someone else without permission.

Jordan Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Reading that Al-Rumayyan is due in Newcastle today will hopefully be the catalyst of some movement with Bruce out and a DOF put in place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nepharite Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Im fantasizing here...Theres a clause in Bruce's contract that says if we are taken over and after the first game of the new regime we are in the bottom three he leaves with fuck all! Would be sweet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’s here for Sunday he’s here, it’s not going to affect our long-term future. They’ve obviously been caught on the hop, give them some time to get sorted out. There's literally not a single good reason to keep him anymore. Having him in the dugout instead of Jones on Sunday offers nothing extra. It's baffling that it looks like we're not going to peddle him before the weekend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEEJ Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 The fact he's anywhere near the club at this time One of the worst PL managers of all time and he's going to oversee the first game of our new era, as well as undeservedly joining the 1000 club. Find me a luckier bastard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicane Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Only positive from this is that hopefully some of the journos might grow a pair and ask some actual questions now that they won't be afraid of being banned Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yelevats Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 First impressions are massive and the new regime have made a mistake in allowing this absolute charlatan to showcase his egotistical fat head on Sunday. Disgrace he's still here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Presumably there’s an agreed cut-off when they confirm the time of the presser. If al-Rumayyan’s rocked up this afternoon then I definitely think they’ve pushed the press conference back because at this current time they (the media team who organise it) don’t know whether he’ll be sacked or not.

Bizza Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Why the fuck is this walking symbol of the previous owners lack of ambition still here? He should've been bounced out the club days ago and Jones put in charge. The thought of him being in the dugout on Sunday is nauseating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 (edited) The start time being pushed back a few hours till half one is interesting. More than likely it’s to spend the extra 3 hours briefing him on what he can and can’t say. I fully expect him to come out and sound as those he believes he has a chance at staying on as well fwiw.

I for one want to see Bruce gone before Sunday but I am also not expecting the league to be won any time soon. There are not just two camps on this point. Wanting Bruce gone by Sunday does not = swivel eyed ungrateful loon who expects Mbappe to arrive in Jan and win the league. There’s many shades of grey on this. These owners are a different world from Ashley and there are exciting times ahead but I just don’t want this idiot being part of any of it. It slightly takes the sheen off the whole thing and any real momentum. Note: slightly takes sheen off. Not PIF and Amanda out because he isn’t gone.

Scoot Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Whichever way we look at it, him being in the dugout on Sunday is going to take the gloss off the occasion. Im happy for them to take their time picking the right man to replace him but Im a little pissed off he's still going to be here on Sunday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
