Stottie Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 7 hours ago, Anderson said: That is the dumbest thing anyone has said in years. It is also insulting to his own club Arsenal, because he's overlooked their legend Herbert Chapman, widely credited as an all-time great tactical innovator. Read those Jonathan Wilson books for more info. Even in recent times, to suggest those four managers are in the same league as Clough/Taylor and Paisley is complete nonsense.

Superior Acuña Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 You get so much distorted bollocks repeated back to you years later as a Newcastle fan. Thinking about in years time squeezing a glass til it breaks in a as I meet a friend of a friend in a pub and they say how they never understood why we hounded Bruce out after he got us promoted and finished 5th.

Ben Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 I think we need to play the xenophobia card more and more once the press are accused of that they will have to be vary careful what they print "Is it cos I'm north east?"

Gallowgate Toon Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Went down to the office yesterday (darn sarf) and absolutely everyone said to me 'I feel sorry for him, he was treated awfully'. Made the case that the guy is dourest, wettest, woe-is-me-est twat going but it didn't really land. I stopped caring what other fans thought about our view on managers after Rafa left - as is often the case in the current world, nobody has a clue but they do have a strong, expert opinion on the matter.

TK-421 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Was speaking to the father-in-law on wednesday night about this, and whilst we both agreed he should have gone, he mentioned that it was unfair the abuse he got, and "particularly that towards his family, people going to their house to abuse him and his wife". WTF??? Has anything like this even happened? Also, saw a tweet where someone talked about 'abuse towards his dead parents'. From memory, the only time I've heard his parents mentioned was from Bruce himself, a week or so ago, where he said he was glad they weren't alive to see/hear the abuse he'd had to face.

Emotic Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 No point getting upset with the fat fuck. There's no winning if his mates in the media bring him on with his "woe is me bullshit". Finish no higher than 12th? "Well, I did that/better than that last season, didn't I? It's unfortunate that the new owners had different ideas and their own man rather than let me take a crack at it. I was ready to give it a go." Finish higher than 12th after spending in the January window? "Well, who knows what I've done if I had been given that sort of backing - I got 12th with a worse squad and wasn't allowed to spend." It'll be unbearable of course, if we finish lower than 12th after spending in January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 As far as I'm aware, the only real 'abuse' that can actually be pointed towards is Twitter, isn't it? While not saying it's okay, the idea that NUFC fans are the only ones to jump on Twitter to slaughter a manager is hilariously ludicrous. As I I've seen others say, I wish the media were this furious over Everton fans showing up to Rafa's house to scare him off from joining the club. But no. Only NUFC has unreasonable fans.
