Where did I say there was a problem? FF refused to get on the coach a couple of years ago and fans still use it as a stick to beat him with. What I am saying is there will be a section of the fan base (what percentage I'm not sure) that won't forgive him if he stays. Human nature, if fans feel he has disrespected our club, they might not let it go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owls-swfc Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 (edited) "I choose to go to Newcastle over this weekend and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of my energies and skills, because that challenge is one that I am willing to accept," Not without coughing up the compo it isn't!

Human nature, if fans feel he has disrespected our club, they might not let it go. Fair enough, i also fear that if he chooses to stay (though I think the signs are he is off to NUFC) certain fans will trat him as a Judas, when in reality a prem club comes in and any managers head is turned. Doesn't mean he can't still do the job and deserve support if he then stays. I think you comparison with the FF situation at Norwich is a bit off, however. Bruce has done nothing that is unprofessional, FF deserves to be derided for trying to force a move through childish petulance. I lost a lot of respect for FF after that. I don't blame Bruce for considering a premier league job. Sucks for us though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce has told Newcastle he wants the weekend to consider.... he may turn this down .. So we have to waste another week preparing for the start of the season ? Or looking on the plus side, it gives us time to prepare an offer for a replacement, preferrably one who wants to stay a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergeant Tibbs Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 2 hours ago, Ronio said: Conflicting stories coming out. Bruce asks for the weekend when in fact it gives Mike Ashley the weekend to decide whether he will cough up the compo. Bruce I think has already decided. Otherwise he wouldn't have gone for talks earlier in the week. He says it's all happened in a couple of days. But I reckon he and his agent will have been well informed of what was going on well before it became public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, you only need to read various threads and opinions on here to prove that a fair number of our fans aren't happy with Bruce. For instance, read Blue and White's thread 'Out of Respect'.

OK, wasn't aware we had to grade our levels of happiness in comparison to times of war. Besides, in terms of good times I thought we were referring to Wednesday!

sage owl Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 DC should give ashley a Monday noon deadline after that the price goes up. We haven't got time to wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Dont see how Bruce can stop at Wednesday now. Best he moves on, we get as much compensation as we can get, get balls rolling on getting another manager in and look forward to the season.

The Night-Owl Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Besides from that Craig David, are we out of the embargo and where's Hector? And when's your next single coming out, cos no-one's buying it unless you're right this time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
