Madness. Nearly every manager and player gets stick and every set of fans has give it out. Just via this forum I've seen Mourinho (one of the greatest managers of all time) getting absued 'dinosaur' 'old man' etc by two ancient league titles (but not entitled/demanding) Spurs fans and the mackems towards Johnson this year alone. The only difference is Bruce has flagged it up and online is the new pub talk and fanzines. Its always been the case, more so with poor managers/players/owners. Its one of the reasons Brucve was so hated, whether he's throwing us under the bus for the sake of sympathy/deflecting his record (did it with Villa where the cabbage moniker was formed) or just too stupid to realise he's inviting this context-less pile in on us. I bet the sacked Charlton manager (two more wins than Bruce) has been called all sorts, who prays for him? who stands up the vicious Charlton fans?

Numbers Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Boohoo "fans in the stadium sang nasty songs about me", it happens in grounds all over the country every week, with your 20 odd years experience you should be well aware of that. For me You didn't get nearly enough grief. Fuck Right Off, You've also just became richer than any of us could ever dream of despite being fucking terrible at your job, you managed to mismanage a club you should have been nowhere near. You get no sympathy from me you money grabbing shit head, if I was shite at my job I'd be leaving with nothing but a boot up my arse. Fuck off cry baby and take all your hoop sucking mates with you.

Everything I’ve seen and heard from Newcastle fans is exactly what we went through.

thomas Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 wasn't he bitten by an immediate loan payback clause from Northern Rock when he took over without doing due dilgence?
