Topic: Steve 'work in progress' Bruce

[AyeDubbleYoo]

Need to lock all the football-related threads TBH. Manager, transfers, the lot.

[Shearergol]

I can see it being Allardyce. I really can.

For those too young to remember - he made Pardew look competent. Fortunately, we only had to endure him for 8 months.

Good old "give Derby 4 points out of their 11" season.

[Gallowgate End]

Fully expecting this or Moyes.

You just know the pair of them have their agents ringing up Charnley already.

if X manager from the continent comes over and speaks the right things, gives respect to the fans, the post etc. then that's all you can ask for - a manager who respects the post and us fans. if it's a hopeless retread weirdo then give him 100% grief  (bruce, fat sam, etc.)

f*** that, talk is cheap, they'll be an Ashley yes-man either way. The worse it gets from here until Ashley leaves the better.

[sadnesstan]

Seriously don’t give a s***, not interested, no malice to he or she but the club while that c*** is in charge can go f*** itself to death. 

I'm glad to know that f***ing something to death is a thing. Just heard Karen Straughan ask Arrogant of Swindon, f***, marry, or murder, Theresa May, Hilary Clinton and AOC. The obvious answer was avoided, you toss a coin between Terry and Hils, one get's murdered, the other you f*** to death and you marry AOC and live happily ever after. He went straight for the f*** AOC. Idiot.

I want Jose Mourinho


I.e. I want takeover

[jdckelly]

almost certain this will be our next manager

[arnonel]

This is like asking Dad for a new mom 24 hours after she passes away

[TRon]

Hope so. Definitely the best fit for Ashley.

It's a very difficult situation, but I am inclined to agree with you.

If say Gattuso or Vieira came in, I would find it very hard to be against them.

I just wish MA would leave man. The whole thing is so toxic now.

But what if it was Margot Robbie?

[Kanji]

i would never dare boo or show disrespect to the players who have given their all on the pitch, and the same goes for a coach who shows clear and utmost respect to newcastle the city, the fans, and it's players. The enemy is and always will be Mike Ashley, Charnley, Bishop, Barnes, and any other crony who talks utter tripe in support of MA.

Football managers of the right mindset will come and do the same as Rafa did, confidence in themselves to achieve the impossible under MA. Sadly, all have failed.

my thoughts as well but I just find the prospect of Ashley giving the job to anyone who isn't british next to impossible since Rafa's the only foreign manager was Rafa and he went to Ashley. Most likely it'll be one of Pardew, Moyes, Bruce or Hughes

[Northerngimp]

Spineless snakeoid.

[TRon]

If I had to put money on the next Ashley appointment it would definitely be Moyes. A miserable c*** for a miserable club.

[ManDoon]

Pardew hasn’t got the stones to come back here no f***ing way

[ScottishMagpie]

Still can't believe we are taking about a replacement for Rafa.....

In my dreams a takeover will happen soon and Rafa will come back, failing that a takeover and Jose comes in.

But back in the real world and if I was a betting a man then my money would go on it being Steve Bruce.

[number9shirt]

Doesn't matter who the manager is while ashley is owner, nothing does.

and if it's pardew, moyes, bruce or hughes then that again deserves absolute hell from any and all.

I couldn't bring myself to hate Gattuso. Thankfully it'll never be him.

[nfrederi]

Anthony Hudson recommened by Rednapp to the mighty Newport County young English manager seems well regarded by press even though hes been a knacker wherever he has been gives Charnley and FCB the delusion that they are being progressive.............I hope its him and its the disaster it promises to be.

[Chris_R]

Anyone who would even consider doing the job should be immediately disqualified from applying.

One of my favourite players. Loved that AC Milan team under Ancelotti.

Such a great guy of immense character is Gattuso.

Him joining is certainly unlikely, I agree.

[Kanji]

Gattuso would probably chin Charnley and Ashley too.
