It wont help recruitment for a start. I don't think it is the case that SB doesn't want to be here, just because possibly been offered the NUFC job. If that was the case he would have walked away by now. Who knows apart from SB himself and at the minute he ,nor anyone else has official commented. Have we even received an official offer for him? Has he actually been offered the job? At the minute it is all hearsay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesn’t, then Mr Chansiri can demand whatever ‘fee’ he wants, just like he can with our players who are under contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damianb1 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 17 minutes ago, Bluesteel said: DC can’t just credibly decide his own compensation figure Unless there is a figure yes he absolutely can. We have something somebody else wants, this is what it costs if you want it you pay that amount to us, if you don't pay it you don't get it. Whether or not that figure is reasonable is another matter entirely but he can demand it. If Bruce resigns he then can't work for a further 12 months, we potentially sue Bruce for breach of contract and Newcastle for damages if any credible evidence of tapping up.

Binky Griptite Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 For all we know Bruce has spoken to Chansiri and said "Boyhood club, I'd love to manage them but only if the deal is right for Sheffield Wednesday... I'd like permission to speak to them but I'm 100% committed here if you can't do a deal." I'd have no problem with him continuing as Manager if it fell through, provided nothing comes out which indicates he was trying to manufacture the move.

He can try but he will have to pay what is in writing somewhere and given how badly they need a manager I think he will. But it won’t be as high as 4/5m in my view. That’s dreaming.

Lawrie Madden Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 This for me is the worst thing about being a football fan Stripping it to its essentials all this is is a bloke contracted to a job wants to move to a "better" job His employer says ok but the compo in your contract needs paying Why the hate of anyone ? if it falls through i have no problem with a good manager carrying on with us, if he leaves he leaves, i don't much care about Bruce and certainly have no hatred of him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be in a contract or something. A fixed fee or equivalent of x months/years wages. I always thought it was literally buying up the remainder of the contract. Why it's so high as we pay Bruce a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Compo needed for the 3 Steve’s. If Bruce goes I hope they follow him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My opinion, based on what's been reported this week, add in that it is boyhood club, that right now he want's to manage Newcastle - meaning he doesn't want to be here. I want us to have a manger who is fully committed to the cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Toon fans don’t want Bruce, but I bet that they want to fail to get him even less. Not getting a manager out of a lower championship club would be humiliating. Mr C has Ashley over a barrel. He should take full advantage No lube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m77owl Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 We are tossed a few coins 3 weeks before the season starts as Newcastle intend to take manager and backroom staff. Insulting. Bruce is now in a hole. If Newcastle won't pay, he's lost all credibility with us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
