nbupperthongowl Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Unfortunately it would be one big final pay day..3 year contract, paid off after 12 months when they get sold He will know that, just like he knows how difficult it is to do a good job there with all the off pitch goings on.....so a tough decision actually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markowl Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Maybe there was a moose loose in the training camp and maybe Bruce thought Chansiri should deal with it, but maybe chansiri told him to get lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wmb Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Just stuck £20 on at 3/1 pay for trip to Milwall if he goes. Probably also evens now I've done that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the manager has had enough of the messing around at the club with embargo's, accounts, shirts, preseason, new contracts, new signing strengthening the squad. Maybe they have had an ultimatum from the manager or maybe they have not but the timing seems a little to convenient. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wmb Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Just one other point...maybe Newcastle have released the rumour that they are 'considering' Bruce to hurry a decision from another target?? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 We’ve all seen, from afar, how tight Ashley has been with Newcastle. I’ll be stunned if he’s willing to pay to prize Bruce away. Nothing in Ashley’s time suggests he’ll pay any more than he needs to to fill the vacancy. He is only interested in the club avoiding relegation and protecting their value for the eventual sale. There’s survival experts like Tony Pulis available on a free. Safe hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you genuinely think Newcastle would offer much, if anything at all more than he's on here? Don't get why after the grief he had at Villa he'd put himself in a job where the environment is so toxic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick_Turpin Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 I'm baffled as to why Newcastle would want him. But assuming they do, which is a big assumption, I'm also baffled by people who are sure he'd stay at Hillsborough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyTrev Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 If Newcastle are serious about Bruce he’d get the chance to trade in Championship football at a club who are wrestling with FFP and play in front of 25k each week for Premier League football at his home town club playing in front of 60k a week. As much as I want to believe he’d turn them down, let’s be honest it’s a no brainer and he’ll go. I just hope that his stint at Villa will have put Newcastle off and they’ll look elsewhere.

Newcastle are very reluctant to spend money on transfers but in my opinion Ashley is the opposite when it comes to managers. He gave Pardew that multi million pound blockbuster 6 year contract wasn't it? Also Benitez was paid very very well and part of the reason he stuck around.

I think it's something to talk about on here following weeks of talking about nothing. It's called 'White van man syndrome'. You get a delivery from a driver, he ends up telling you all about his life because he misses adult company. I don't think he's go though. They'd hate him at St James'. Half the crowd would be on his back from the start, the other half would be on his back after a few games. Then someone will throw a vegetable at him. The only reason we don't mind him being the ex manager from the wrong side of the city, is because we looked like the blind leading the blind until his appointment.

Ashley may not have backed Benetez too often in the transfer market but he certainly put money in his pocket. As mentioned above you have to think if they are serious he will go. The only way he stays is if this is a non story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Money doesn't just talk - it screams very loudly, then handcuffs people and throws them in the back of van. If they want him, he'll go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
