Nobody Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Bruce was trying to get sacked, right? He must have been fuming that he had to keep managing the team once the fans returned, he must have wanted to have been sacked before then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Maximin Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 When Bruce was on TV enjoying the cricket in Dubai I am pretty sure he would have been there regardless of whether he was still manager. It was an international break after all... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, this is why the whole "the nasty Geordies have pushed me into retirement!" was nowt but a load of self-indulgent horseshite. The very next half decent paycheque that comes along, he'll be on it like a shot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consortium of one Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 2 hours ago, cosmic said: Just like Ashley not spending much on transfers leaving us in a strong FFP position; we could benefit from the lack of intensity during the Bruce holiday training period as our season just kind of started. Our lot will hopefully still be relatively fresh during the end of season run in whilst other teams may be burnt out by then. man, I hope so Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 What was your training routine Steve? Well, the sports scientists would have their say, then we'd implement it.. Init.

Rafalove Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Even if that was true, why wasn’t that communicated? Why act so belligerently when journalists ask questions about it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bishops Finger Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Steve Bruce's sports scientist was obviously working from home, in a cellar without a fucking laptop, phone or any other communication device. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 The logic here is that because I'm clearly unfit, I therefore shouldn't train tomorrow. I mean, anyone see the problem with this approach? THAT'S EXACTLY WHY THEY SHOULD BE FUCKING TRAINING. Fucking hell. Thank fuck these 2 wasters have been launched into the sea along with cabbage head. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyc35i Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 The bare minimum for a team in our position is to try and be as fit as you can. The fine margins between winning and losing can be simply down to pressing the opposition more frequently or making that lung busting run to steal a game at the end of the 90 minutes. It’s criminal how the Steve’s couldn’t see this and it’s actually still baffles me at how unfit our lads have been this year Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Bruce made a deal with Ashley this summer that he would get a huge payoff when sacked, I think the supporters and the region as a whole needs to remember this. Bruce sold out Newcastle and its supporters to protect Ashley and earn himself millions, he is the worst manager we have ever had not because of results but the fact he sold us down the river for the benefit of himself and Mike Ashley.

This 100 times. It also meant that the consortium's first dealing with a manager was getting burnt by one with a ridiculously tasty contract. We do not know what dealings we had with the various candidates for the replacement, but it would be very understandable if relegation clauses and payoffs for underachievement were very heavy on their mind, possibly to an extent that put otherwise keen prospective managers off. All thanks to Steve fucking Bruce getting his payday. Newcastle fan my arse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
christ Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 I assume the ‘sports scientist’ the fitness fella that Rafa brought in, the one that very recently followed him to Everton. In which case if he was calling the shots why was our approach to fitness so markedly different? I smell bullshit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
