Pez1974 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 This is almost a perfect Bruce appointment. When he's there he will blame a lack of support from the supporters. When he's fired, his media mates will peddle the 'Ashley was the problem' mentality. I almost want them to get bought out, and Potato Cabbage get a chance with a lot of money, and to **** it all up. Perhaps then, the dinosaurs in the English game will start to get called out properly by the media. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Shit I've only just realised this is happening. I think it puts a nail in Newcastle's coffin for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a bit of disapproval when McLiesh was appointed but nothing close to what he’s describing A bit of disapproval ? Are you sure of this? I agree the way he described his appointment is incorrect - but I'm pretty certain - there was a huge amount of disapproval at Appointment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the fact he'd just been relegated. It was such a remarkable appointment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted July 12, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 12, 2019 It’s probably a false memory, but the way I recall it was that there was a fairly vocal dissatisfaction with McClaren and when that disappeared there was sort of a lull and then the McLeish appointment took everyone by surprise. There was a bit of a protest but the threat of McClaren threw people off and McLeish was the sucker punch. It sort of staggered any outrage. Like I say, probably a false memory but that’s how I remember it playing out. All very quick. Without wanting to reference cabbages, Bruce was welcomed in the same way as accepting more greens on your plate. Not the most exciting thing, but sensible and with the idea that at least they’ll be better for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What? Obviously if the same thing happened to them 3 months into a job then Villa came after them then they'd definitely turn it down.... Nope of course they wouldn't. If i was in Bruce's position and Villa came after me I'd accept the Villa offer without hesitation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I don’t thimk he will keep Newcastle up. The club is rotten to the core. The way we were for so many years. I think next season will show how much of a remarkable job Rafa managed to do for 2 seasons. Bruce will have them battling to the end though.

villadodo Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Well at least this season he will definitely be there or thereabouts... the relegation zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan-scott Posted July 13, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 13, 2019 At least he gets to wheel out the beg, steal and borrow line again. He will treat the NUFC fans with the same contempt he did us, and be straight in the ex-Sunderland link and never accepted boll*cks as soon as the sh*t hits the fan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 He could use that line at Wednesday, they've been under a transfer embargo and have only just recently been able to announce some signings and then they're free transfers, they've also had to to sell their ground (Hillsborough), to make the accounts look right. At Newcastle he'll probably at least have some money to spend, they've got no choice really after losing Rondon and Perez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but it will mean that Newcastle would have one of the relegation places sewn up, so we only need to worry about other teams. by the way - it was a joke in case you missed it.

useless Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Not sure how you work that out, between them they got forty plus goals and assists for Newcastle last season, at the moment both would probably get into our team. I think Pérez is really underrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
