HaydnNUFC Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Just now, LV said: This is likely the position of the consortium and why they are hesitating. For me though, you may as well have Jones there while they look. It's how any other club operates. Puel at Leicester was sacked, caretaker took midweek game while they got Rodgers sorted. Ljungberg took Arsenal for a couple games after Emery. Caretakers, what every fucking club in the world does. Get rid of Bruce now, it's fucking incompetence beyond wildest dreams if he stays on for another game. Or day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have an idea, and because you don't have a manager, you get on with it. The rumour mill for us now is just shortlist after shortlist. Managers tend not to talk to clubs until the post is empty, Benitez didn't start contract talks with us until after McClaren was officially sacked. Bruce is a cancer on this team and needs to be cut out until it becomes too late for any kind of positive remission. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 My goodness! I admire the ambition but I'm beginning to wonder if we are aiming too high with that one From Wayne Rooney to Diego Simeone what a day ... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbthree3 Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 However... https://fr.besoccer.com/info/simeone-approche-par-newcastle-1057034 believe this was a 2020 thing not a 2021 "The 'AS' newspaper reports that when the new owners of Newcastle started to move forward on the purchase which is now official, in 2020 they considered signing Diego Simeone as coach and his sporting director Andrea Berta with him. The aim was to replicate the successful model of Atletico Madrid." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 They're all just guessing and it doesn't matter while Bruce is still here. On that rumour alone, Conte is more realistic than Simeone and Conte is almost a dream for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Gerrard, Lampard, Rooney, Martinez, Howe....... jesus christ, I'm getting nervous now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Howe might not be bad short term tbh. He's behind the likes of Conte (if we could even get him), Fonseca and Favre for me but ahead of Gerrard, Martinez and Lampard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Again, literally any one of these names (bar Rooney) is going to have this club safe. The mentality, coaching will improve drastically. The Jan window will come and we'll get some signings in and hopefully a fun season overall. Just need to bloody sack Bruce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) We don’t need the manager who’ll win our first Champions League, we just need to pick up 38 points or so by the summer. As long as I don’t despise them as people (Allardyce, Lampard, Gerrard, Rooney) I’d be alright with most people.

toontownman Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 3 hours ago, bowlingcrofty said: he absolutely hates Fraser Not according to Fraser but that is certainly only one side of the story! https://www.theguardian.com/football/2020/sep/09/ryan-fraser-bournemouth-newcastle-united-steve-bruce I would have no problem with Howe in the interim tbh. Rather Howe than Gerrard, Lampard or Martinez. If we are striking out He has had a long time out of the game readying himself for his next project, time if he is meticulous as all reports of his coaching suggests, to reflect on what went wrong and how to improve his weaknesses. He has worked and got the best out of Wilson and Fraser. It would be a come down. Favre, Rangnick, AVB even are a different league but Howe would be ok for now imo.

Yes his wife wouldn't move from South Coast,he had to commute to Burnley. Turned down Celtic as well,so I don't think so. Think Howe will hold on for a job near home,the likes of Southampton,if it comes up. But you never know,money talks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
