toon25 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Decent journos would start asking questions about his contract and the provisions in it, because there’s absolutely no fucking logical reason why this cunt should still be in a job. Current form and historical experience suggests there’s no good reason to think this fat mess could keep us up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 The only conclusion I can muster is that twice Ashley has sacked a poor manager with a handful of games left (albeit too few) and twice we have been relegated, yet he stuck by Pardew and Carver in seasons everyone was calling for their heads and both times we stayed up. In his tiny little brain he'll be thinking that sticking with Bruce is the best option based on this experience. Any reality is mentally engineered to reflect his business practices so this is likely true. The wrong lessons are learned if any each time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitley mag Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 In most companies loyalty is valued, as we all know however the loyalty being displayed by Bruce is something else entirely. Whereas Rafa wanted to better this club at every level, this turd is happily complicit in the ongoing neglect so he keeps his job. Undoubtedly an Ashley dream manager, who if Ashley remains will certainly get the gig to bring us back up, of that I have no doubt now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 It’s like one of those videos of a car broken down on a train crossing with the train blowing it’s horn like fuck, knowing in reality there nothing going to stop the accident from unfolding. Absolutely mind blowing that the people in charge of a premiership club couldn’t see this happening yet tens of thousands of normal supporters knew the script from Bruce’s arrival. Guess it’s the difference between actually caring about something and just owning it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Bailey Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Hope on now. Talking of self inflicted wounds and not surprised at MA decision to stick, indicative of poor running of club. Bruce makes no progress as a manager and never has, he is a survivor and only has shelf life of so long before he loses a job. Relegation probable. Negligent not to make change, reckless. Not to remove Bruce is incredible. Section of players want Bruce out and number is growing. Takeover collapse not an excuse. Not a bad squad, underperforming with resources he has. Relegation feels different this time. Real toxicity around club. Fans want change and supporters want a galvanised club. Under this manager not sure there is the desire to survive.

black_n_white Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 2 points clear of relegation with a game in hand and with 2 keys players to return soon, plus the fact he’s brought managers in late with no success previously can be the only reasons why he’s keeping the job?

TRon Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Hope absolutely crucifying Bruce there. He didn't say anything outrageous either, just pointed to the evidence right before our eyes. Makes you wonder what other supposed football journalists are getting paid for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Called it last night that Cabbageheed is going nowhere. What a poxy outfit we are. Shambles.

Armchair Pundit Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 This has killed the club for me, it's dead to me now. I wonder what the actual percentage is of fans who still support regardless? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Craig Hope is absolutely fantastic like. The best NUFC journo out there by a country mile. Darren Lewis on Sky Sports did read out the sudden deluge of critical quotes from other local journos since last night, from the likes of Ryder and Bird. Shameful that these experts understood football so little that it took them two years to realise what Hope has been saying from day one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE27 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 There is no fucking logical explanation to Bruce being here still, he wasn't wanted to start with and fans will NEVER ever endear themselves to him, and that has nothing to do with rivalries, just his general apathetic shitness he has displayed throughout his managerial career. As has been said previously, he is Mike Ashley's dream manager, talks absolute shit and has most of the press on side. Deflects most of the critisicm from Mike while he pretends he is selling the club, like he has been for 12 years. We are going down and we've all known it from the minute Bruce came in, and you know what we absolutely deserve it. The media can go and suck a fat chode for their participation in this charade also. Edit. We as fans most definitely don't deserve it, we have literally had to sit and watch the slow motion car crash whilst everyone is telling us we will be ok, is this how it feels to be trapped in an insane asylum?!

Kanj Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Bruce is not a Geordie. No person who claims to have any spiritual connection or be a fan of this club would stay on the post when it’s clear that it’s not working. He’s staying for his money. The cretin. He’s a joke. A fraud. I hope his son sees this post too. Utter morons these kind of people in football. Fit and proper owner, eh? Protecting the fans, are you Masters? Fuck off all of you. Money grabbing shite manager and a negligent owner ruining this club again. Fuck this league. Fuck these people. The club is absolutely dead until they are gone. Until then, hope they get dragged through the worst, all of these losers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoot Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 It's as if Ashley does the complete opposite to logic but most importantly does the opposite to what the fans want. We desperately wanted Rafa to stay, so he lets him leave, we desperately want Bruce out, so he makes sure he stays. These are just 2 examples of many. Every single decision made by Ashley is the wrong one. 14 years of wrong decisions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
