Aye Ashley’s a cunt but he’s spent something like £130m which I’m guessing is par for lower mid-table clubs. I hope Bruce doesn’t become some sort of martyr if he walks man. :lol:

 

 

 

I would accept him being carried out on a throne as long as it gets him out of our football club. We can ignore him and pretend he no longer exists when he’s not stood on the touchline.

Apart from McClaren he’s had the most backing since Souness in 2005. If he didn’t waste money or regress players with his coaching, the squad he assembled with what he’s spent might have been enough for a solid season.

Urgh.

 

 

 

Not a chance in hell the useless fat cunt will resign as he knows Ashley won't sack him, and he also know no other premier club would ever give him the lickings of a dog.

If only he’d known what he was signing up for and has repeatedly defended. NE press pack embarrassing themselves to stick up for their beloved patsy as per.

they are hoping fans will lay off bruce and feel sorry for him becuase of how mean ashley has been to him, and its not bruce's fault at all, etc.

I don't know why so many like Cailkin just because he likes writing poetry style in his articles.

Absolutely. From last summer especially, Fraser and Hendrick have done absolutely nothing, and Lewis has been really poor for him.

 

Like you said he also completely tanked the value of all the players that looked decent under Rafa. Schar, LeJeune, Lascelles, Longstaff, Almiron etc.

 

The guy has cost the club money big time. Don't think he's justified in thinking he can get what he wants at all. It serves him right.

If he did resign it would actually be the first thing he did that I would admire.

 

And if he had a bit of nous about him, he could twist the resignation into saying his hands were tied at every turn, jones brought in without his approval, etc etc and salvage his reputation somewhat for his next job.

And get the rest of the year paid up as constructive dismissal. Someone will fancy a pop at that. Probably nick the Baker

Sickening seeing the likes of Edwards & Caulkin sticking up for him like this. The money he’s spent we should have a decent squad. He might have even had some assets he could sell to raise funds for players (like normal clubs operate as well) but other than ASM & Wilson we have no-one we’d get worthwhile fee for and that’d be suicide selling them. That’s on Bruce.

For me, it is more that he has repeatedly lied about getting more players in, being happy with the business done to date and working with Lee and Mike. Can’t have it both ways I’m afraid.

They are professional sports journalists. If you are getting paid to do a job, you should at least try to be objective. In what way has Bruce been shafted? If Rafa wasn't happy with the way we work, he was pretty quick to say so. Because he had some balls, but for some local journos, being their pal is more important.

Journalism has long stopped being professional, like. More interested in generating clicks and interactions on social media rather than writing reputable pieces.

 

They’d rather be pals with Bruce to get inside scoops once a year rather than pulling him up on anything.

 

Plus the fact that nobody outside of Newcastle gives a shit about the state of the club.

 

But we’re all guilty of that, does anyone on here care/feel sorry for Arsenal fans? What about Derby? Ipswich?

I might not care about Arsenal fans, but if I read an article about Arsenal I wouldn't expect to read that they are bottom because their manager has been shafted.
