Steve Bruce

[Geordie1974]

Steve Bruce will not be sacked because the fans don't like him and he is a useless manager. After 14 yrs of Ashley, everyone the crowd has a connection with is gone.
Look at Rafa, Shearer, Hughton all let go.
Now look who was useless and the fans wanted gone, all got longer than they should, Pardew, McClaren and Bruce. That's before the likes of Carver and Kinnear that should never have got the job.
Ashley is like a petulant child. Getting a kick out of upsetting the fans. Hit him back and keep your money. If we all backed Bruce through this he would already be gone.

i have a feeling and i don't believe Mike Ashley is standing by Steve Bruce at all, i think he has to publicly back him because he has no alternative yet, why waste another 4 million and be no further forward.

Its easy to say Jones can step in but he has not got any experience in the top flight, his management tenure at Luton (i think) was a disaster. He is not the answer.

Bruce was not on the shortlist drawn up to replace Rafa, after all the names on the shortlist turned the job down, Steve Bruce was the 10th person they approached out of desperation more than anything.

Before McClown got the sack, the club publicly backed him but in truth were speaking to Benitez in the background.

I genuinely believe Ashleys people will be speaking to Howe and Wilder and hoping to get a deal in place with a substantial bonus if we are kept up.

Social media have reports the players want a meeting with Charnley do discuss how to keep the club in the division, Bruce has lost the dressing room and a large portion of the players want rid of him (probably b0ll0x like)
