Exactly. It's not like we've just had an average start to the season, and whilst new owners want their own man, they let the manager continue till they can secure someone. The current bloke is the reason we are 19th without a win to date, so he has no justification to stay on, especially not just for a milestone game.

Manxst Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Better not be four months before any proper firing is done. Starting with Luke’s best mate who’s contributed enormously to this shitshow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think its that nuanced, he's just assuming around a month to interview and then applying a 3 month notice period for a CEO/SD as you might expect in the business world. We know that in football you interview, pay compensation and put them in place immediately. Either that or they are really thorough on interviewing a obtaining 3 suitable references!

nbthree3 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 (edited) In hindsight words like this are very funny https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/dave-whelan-launches-broadside-at-mike-ashley-cpbh6rmm85t Whelan maintains that there is no chance of Bruce working for Ashley at Newcastle. “I don’t think you will ever get Steve Bruce going to a club that is run the way Mike Ashley runs it,” Whelan said. “He knows he could go and he knows he could go to Newcastle. Would he go? No chance. He loves being at this club. He is happy here. “I know he will go in the end and if I was Man United when Sir Alex [Ferguson] decides to hang up his boots, I don’t think there is any doubt they will come.” https://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/sport/3683316.whelan-no-fan-ashley/ Whelan has not been surprised to see current Wigan boss Steve Bruce linked with the St James’ Park vacancy, but claims the former Manchester United centre-back would not consider taking the role amid the current turmoil. ‘‘One day he (Bruce) will get a big-four job – I realise that, and I think the whole country realises it. ‘‘But if Newcastle came, I think you would get Steve telling them what to do very quickly. I know Newcastle is where he comes from and I know he did want to manage Newcastle at one time. But I’m sure it wouldn’t excite him to go up there at present. ‘‘If he did, he would be made welcome because he is a great manager, but I think when we lose him he will go to one of the big four.’’ Reports from Dubai, meanwhile, claim Ashley snubbed a crucial meeting with Arab investors on Tuesday night as potential buyers were not willing to meet his £481m asking price.
