The Night-Owl Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Couldn't they just settle for a swap deal? Bruce for one of their players plus compo for his coaching staff? Bruce for Gayle? Take em to the cleaners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley won’t pay it Yeah but Chelsea wanted shut of Sarri anyway so I can’t imagine much haggling going on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He went in to 1/12, England confirmed he'd been approached, Scolari said it was a job he was interested in, and then he turned it down! The current odds suggest the combination of significant money laid AND evidence of interest/talks. Those talks don't always result in a deal getting done though... Don’t get me wrong I hope it’s a similar situation what you just written down there I would like Bruce to stay but I think we’re just clutching at straws now Hoping that he will turn it down 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owls maniac Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 This really is a farce now. Mike Ashley probably thought this would be easiest deal he’s made all year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he does want to go and DC stalls it by wanting £10 million, it's not gonna be a great atmosphere if he stays. £10mill? Could swap him for Gayle?

Compo we want is not 5m as some are quoting. Will meet in the middle somewhere. Apparently staff found out before Portugal. Source - my mate.

He'll get the same clap and cheering and songs as usual from me so long as he's our manager. Can't blame a man for considering your boyhood club then deciding it's not quit right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovely work DC, we'll be out of the embargo. £5mill + Gayle, then go buy Hector and bring in a manager that wants to be here. Then storm the League and swap places with the Pigs DC's masterplan is genius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0114 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Yesterday I had completely adamant he was gone. However today its not looking as simple as it was. Be very interesting if he’s in the dugout tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Night-Owl Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 They can have Bruce for the transfer war chest Ashley promised Bruce. Then when Bruce goes there he can't buy anyone but we can buy anyone we want at this level 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
