TheGuv Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 John Carver 20 3 4 13 15.00% Osvaldo Ardiles 47 10 18 19 21.28% Joe Kinnear 18 4 8 6 22.22% Steve McClaren 31 7 6 18 22.58% Kevin Keegan 21 6 6 9 28.57% Steve Bruce 97 28 28 41 28.87% Richard Dinnis 40 12 10 18 30.00% A list of our worst performing managers. You could argue Carver and Kinnear (Interim) don't count and KK was in his second spell and things were beginning to turn around. Plus those 3 managers only had around 20 games. Bruce had nearly 100 games! 100! Does he go down as the worst manager of all time? Or would you still say McCLaren? I found it interesting to see that Ardilles comfortably has the worst win% of a full time manager at NUFC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Based on nothing, I don’t think a new manager is close, I think they are hoping or giving Jones a chance to see if he can do enough to get us through to the summer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been 3 managers in my lifetime who I was horrified when they were appointed ( not counting Carver, he was obviously just a fill in) and they were Souness Pardew Bruce All three were clear and obvious morons and should never have been considered. I'd have Big Sam on there as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were going to just go with Jones for the foreseeable then you'd think they'd have just binned Bruce last week. Perhaps they're now close to landing their target and therefore confident enough to start moving things into place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking about "his love for the game" now on SSN now, I've seen not one bit of evidence for that. He was fucking miserable the entire time and can only have been doing it for his bank balance. Is he getting the full 8 million or is that for his coaching team as well? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stadiums were mainly empty, and when they weren't he wasn't getting anywhere near as much stick as someone like Pardew did. The vast majority of the 'appalling abuse' seems to come from Alex Bruce searching his dad's name on Twitter and then relaying it back to him, the snide little cunt.

KaKa Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 The guy is so unbelievably manipulative. Even on the way out he's gone with this abuse narrative to paint the fans in a bad light and have the media come at them. Such a pathetic person. Especially because he knows he never cared for the club and just saw it as an opportunity to doss about and get paid well for it. Awful stuff.
