Steve Bruce

[toonfalifekevbrown]

He was already in work
He thought nothing of leaving a club
No honour at all
Sir Bobby made newcast!e wait till he was outofcontract

I kinda agree with you. We know where the problem is, but I don't blame Bruce. Bruce is trying his best (although his best is not up to standard). I've turned down jobs before, that a while later I'd wish I'd took. Ashley/Charnley are the enemy here. I can't get upset with Bruce for the simple fact he's working under ****ty conditions. We all know that Bruce is not good enough in the Prem league, he wouldn't be offered any other job in the Prem league but he is here and I for one hope he works miracles with the shower of .... that he has to work with...........

So does Ashley.

We all support this club otherwise we wouldn't be on here. Don't let the fact that we've got a 'kin clueless coach cause acrimony between us. It's all moot anyway, if Bruce left who would follow him ? I think we all know the answer to that question, as long as Ashley is here anyway.

Who wants an argument.Just sick of hearing it's his dream job.It isn't.He turned it down once so hardly his dream.Didn't turn the mackem job down did he.If his love Man Utd offered him the job he would be gone tomorrow.Thats his dream.He pìsses in the same pot as Ashley and Charnley.All 3 can get to fùck.All 3 complicit in ruining the club and having no ambition above staying in the Premier League.
If anyone doesnt like what I post or have to say dont read it.One thing that's makes me different to quite a few on here is my views dont change after a couple of League wins.

Does anyone know the actual real reason he turned the job down following Sir Bobby's departure. I've often wondered and it's not as if they were queing up to take him on elsewhere.

Notice the huge vast gap between Rafa and Moyes. Those under Rafa are of a sort, a certain standard of no hopers who shouldn't be allowed to manage above Chimpo level.
