Bruce has not exactly got off to a flyer at Newcastle and is bookies favourite to be the first to get the sack. Personally although I don't like he left us it was for his boyhood club and it was his last chance to manage them which you can understand, the way he went about it was not great but I think given its likely the additions were Bruce and co's players he did put us in a good position and unlike anyone else could come back and know the squad... Would the players be happy to see him return? Would fans be happy to see him return? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its only been 4 games and last 2 have hardly been convincing. Transfer market will be run partly by him but also the club and chansiri. Not just Bullen. Also it’s about scouting and structure not just Bullen. He is already employed by the club and will leave at some point. Not all manager hires end badly and mean hatred, if he earns the job in the next 6 games then give it him. As for convincing, this is the championship, it’s not easy and tonight we deserved the win. We should have won by 2 at least. It took Cardiff till the 96th minute to beat them. Is warnock not good enough as well? 9 points from 4 games is promotion form. End of.

asteener1867 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I wonder how he would carry it off...If it happened...? I would call a press conference..then pretend to suddenly sorta wake up.... "Where am I...Oh thank God its Hillsborough!" "I had this awful (remarkable dream)..That I had etx etc etc... Or..

davetherivelinowl Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 No thanks. I forgave Big Ron but he'd already proven how good a manager he was for us. Brucie doesn't have enough brownie points to be forgiven for what he did. It's not just that he left us - he left us after we had treated him with such compassion. That's rare in football and should have been rewarded with loyalty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athelwulf Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Not as far-fetched as it sounds. Re' the Toon, Bruce would tell Chansiri that it's the one job in football he couldn't say "no" to, especially at his age. There's probably some truth in that, but it's whether Chansiri would take him back. Bruce was chosen by him, though, and if he were totally happy with what's currently on offer then Bullen wouldn't be in situ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would the players be happy to see him return? Would fans be happy to see him return? What the fans think wouldn't come into it as far as Chansiri is concerned. The players wouldn't care less either, because they're no more loyal to this club than he was. They're all mercenaries, paid employees who'd jump ship just as readily if it bettered their situations. Chansiri needs promotion and he (Bruce) was his choice to make that happen, which makes all the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest LondonOwl313 Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 No chance.. 1. he'd be too embarrassed to come back here after what he did unless we offered him a big wedge (which would be quite possible). 2. He'd be on gardening leave from Newcastle and we'd have to pay them compensation. 3. He shafted Chansiri and there's no way he'd appoint him after that. 4. If he did come, the probability of things clicking for him wouldn't be good as there's too much baggage. Time to move on... yeah the guy had promotions from this league on his CV but that's not the be all and end all. He also had a poor record in the Prem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
