PlymouthGeordie Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Just now, HTT II said: I don’t think they briefed anyone explicitly saying he would be getting sacked ASAP Seriously? Everyone ran the same story, Hope, Edwards, Caulkin, Ryder, Martin Hardy, Simon Bird. And they all ran it directly after spending several hours with the new owners.

jackyboy Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 So Bruce says that he'd like to have clarity on his future. He also says he would like to carry on with the job. He says that any team in the bottom half of the table are fighting relegation and that is the position we were in when he walked through the door. He also says we have been fighting relegation for 6 years. This guy obviously believes that our current situation has nothing to do with his management Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For this reason alone they should sack him. Put the groundsman in charge, whatever. Just send this guy packing please! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I know its been said 1000 times but this must come down down to their search for the new manager. For whatever reason, they have decided to not bin the old manager until the new manager is lined up. If Bruce gets sacked and they don't have anyone lined up, I will be even more confused.

Ben Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I'm convinced its that, if Bruce goes with the Steves the club can't just have Jones on his own and with the run down state of the club we have no real coaching pedigree in the academy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets not pretend that its impossible to find an assistant to Graeme Jones ffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackyboy Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 There's no advantage in keeping Bruce for another hour, only disadvantages. The players need motivation and a proper fitness plan and that's just for starters. Bruce is incapable of delivering either of those Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DubblyDubblyDubbly Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I presume the £8m clause is less than him and his cronies wages until end of contract so why not put him on gardening leave. Gets him off the case and stops him getting another job and spouting off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's 90 points left to play for and we're only three points off 17th so objectively the situation is far less urgent than it could be. They'd probably sooner appoint the right individuals than rush into a wrong decision just for the sake of getting rid of Bruce. I think that is probably close to the truth. They had to watch Bruce from the sidelines for the past two years, they probably figure if it takes another two weeks to get everything in place, it's hardly a disaster. That his days are numbered is not in doubt, they have very publicly failed to back him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't looking at this situation through the eyes of us fans who are sick of Bruce's shit. Objectively, time is on their side to make the right decision.

STM Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 On the other hand, Craig Hope said that they had hoped to have had him out for the Spurs game, so clearly they were expecting to be somewhere near replacing him. Perhaps one of their targets turned them down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seriously doubt they specifically told anyone he’d be gone by the Spurs game, I think them not publicly backing him/coming out to say his job is secure or not, inferred he’d be gone by the Spurs game. Let’s not forget every journo up and down the land doesn’t really have a clue or an inside scoop on NUFC matters and I can’t see that changing anytime soon, new owners or not. They were all doing guess work mostly thinking that would be the first thing they would do. The fact they haven’t kind of proves my point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What were most worried about is not the situation right now but what is forthcoming. If we don't get something at Palace, were losing to Chelsea and the 3point gap will be extended with harder games than we've had. Then patience will have to go, so why wait. I think were between time being on the regime's side and our nervousness at this moment by one game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
