Strawberry Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 The thing is without this we dont have nothing. No hope nothing to look forward too. Exactly Bruce is a symptom not the root cause. Not many people buy that but you are absolutely correct. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I mean you can absolutely be upset that bruce exists at this club while also being upset at Ashley. There's no rule saying you have to limit your vitriol to one person. He's not the root cause but he's fucking godawful and there's no reason to give him a pass just because a worse ballbag of a human owns the club.

There's no rule saying you have to limit your vitriol to one person. He's not the root cause but he's f***ing godawful and there's no reason to give him a pass just because a worse ballbag of a human owns the club. This is true but we had a great manager in Benitez and we allowed him to walk away, in no properly run football club would it be acceptable to replace a manger of his pedigree with Bruce. I’m also at the hatred levels with Bruce, however I don’t believe in any way replacing him with another manager moves the club any further forward long term. The only way forward is regime change and until that happens everything else is pointless, and a waste of all our time. The club is currently dead in its current guise and the only flicker of life we have is this takeover. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I agree with your sentiment, there's no way we'll survive in the PL under Bruce.........we have a half decent squad with decent defensive capabilities and useful attacking options....we need urgently to get rid of Bruce and appoint anyone with half a brain.....survival is necessary to allow a takeover a chance...get someone in now....get 2-3 Loan midfield players, and all we are saying is "give PIF a chance"...

I get this but I also couldn’t stand Pardew, McClaren, Kinnear and Carver, it’s just rinse and repeat unfortunately until Ashley is gone. I do agree he is very capable of taking us down, however I’m confident if PIF are still at the table he won’t be allowed to. I think next 3 league games will either save him or seal his fate, I’m leaning towards the latter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest reefatoon Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 My theory has always been the same though, you can take out the person below Ashley to put more heat on him. Realistically the fans won’t turn full on Ashley, we don’t know why, but managers can be got at. Always the same? You had Kashoggis widow as one of our QC’s in yesterday’s theory.

InspectorCoarse Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 If things get worse relegation wise and Bruce gets the tin tack is that not proof that theres still hope for the takeover ? Otherwise Ashley will keep Bruce all day long even if we go down Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is still hope and while the deal is still alive he will do what is necessary to protect his investment, there will be no sentiment displayed for Brucey.

As long as their bee owners aren't wealthy enough to threaten the top 6, theyll not give a fuck. The fact Spurs tried to sell to the Saudis but then opposed our sale to them sums up the English premier league in 1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be of no interest at all to the "Big Picture Six", it is the exact opposite of the situation caused by our Takeover. The Big Picture Six did not want to become Seven, especially as they would have imagined that they would probably have become "numbers 2 to 7" !!!!

Closure would be nice mind, one way or another so that we can move on with our fucking lives. Wonder if we get to hate football even more in the future or actually even able to enjoy it, despite football being a bit fucked these days (not because of Corona only) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
