i'm going to explain to you where you're going wrong here, although god only knows why i should need to.... you (and no doubt many others in the putrid facebook/twitter world of the terminally stupid) appear to be using bruce's relatively reasonable and surprising points haul thus far as a stick to beat newcastle supporters who viewed benitez as a last bastion of hope in a whole world of depressingly unambitious and vindictive mike ashley induced shite. and you're gloating about it. bruce might well fluke a top ten finish, he's done it before (just) with the mackems. this however wouldn't make him a good manager as i'm sure our mates down the road would tell you. indeed you need look no further than our very own alan pardew's 5th place finish to see how it's feasible for the footballing planets to miraculously align and produce an anomaly. bruce isn't an ashley masterstroke to guide us to football utopia. bruce hasn't been, isn't, nor will he ever be, fit to lace benitez's laces both as a competent manager or indeed a man. benitez represented hope and progression even under the strangling grip of a cunt like ashley. bruce represents 17th place finishes and fawning platitudes to an utter peice of human scum. they're well suited to each other mikey and stevie, they're both morally bankrupt. now... if you've really needed the glaringly obvious pointed out to you, you're either 1) thick as fucking pig shit. 2) on a really ill judged wind up. i'll give you the benefit of doubt and plump for the latter.

The whole thing is brilliant. I don’t think anyone would have guessed all of our predictions would have been this dead on, despite it all being fairly inevitable. That thread is class, it’s basically just what we were saying from the start. Some tit who owned a semi pro club got the chance at owning them for essentially fuck all, inevitably the fact he doesn’t have money to put in and has no experience or know how mean that when they didn’t immediately go up so he could sell it’s blown up and they’re stuck together. The one absolute plum that gives it the “if he has any affinity for us at all he will sell” firstly the bloke has never given a flying fuck, he saw it as a chance at making a fair bit with little personal risk, secondly who the fuck would he sell it to? It’s a rotten club with a boring as fuck 90’s flat pack stadium located in an area devoid of anything interesting, with a horrible fan base who are doing their ample best to make every bit of the club poisonous, and finally this is just another example of fucking delusion, he saw Short do something he absolutely didn’t need to do and that they didn’t deserve by bailing them out and is now expecting this guy to essentially take a personal hit to help them (Forgoing any hope of making money I would presume as he’d not get much for them since they’re in League One and seemingly have a pretty nasty negative cash flow)? Fucking utter shambles of a club. I hope this bellend and his cockend mate Methven (“ahhhm dead excited we gorra pr lads fan in marras” thick cunts) are stuck with the club for at least as long as Ashley has owned NUFC. I also enjoyed the “he’s done so much right off the pitch” comments, that essentially boils down to the fact him and dickhead #2 used to regularly insult NUFC as he hasn’t done things right off the pitch. He has tried to stop the negative cash flow, seemingly he has failed as he needed an external loan. His master stroke was fooling those 6 fingered perverts to change their own seats rather than paying a company to do it and have them think it was brilliant, other than that he’s been a heap of shite.

The irony is he got the club, the fans and the area more than the so-called Geordie manager ever will

Every other club that has dropped to their level or had a period of sustained shittitude has had plenty of articles written, saying things like "It's a shame to see a footballing institution struggling" or "These long-suffering fans deserve so much better" when they're languishing in the shit. But with this lot, it's the opposite. Whenever anybody gets the chance, they stick the boot in Not even Leeds got slagged off as much.

Well, a varied diet is important

He’s literally incapable of giving a shit. He doesn’t know how to. A lifetime spent pleasing his fucking self and no other fucker.

We already know there’s no ball boys.

Money is being invested in a new ticket office Right at the time when their attendances are at their lowest. It's like the Venice government going out and spending money on sun loungers in the morning.

Hi “Another Kid”

I would drive a lorry head on into your horse and cart to avoid a Tory majority.

maybe reiver's mate penelope cruz?

Tactics meeting today at Darsley Park…

Yep, both absolute frauds

Aye, they completely bought into the ‘off the pitch stuff’ which consisted of the new board slagging off Newcastle and, bizarrely, getting fans to volunteer their own time to replace the faded pink seats. And that’s about it

https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/stewart-donald.1493750/ Turns out he isn’t the messiah after all. Who knew?

This sums up our club now tbh. Staying up is an “achievement”. And staying up is about as good as Bruce will get (fwiw I believe we’ll get relegated by Bruce sooner or later). If you bother to compare Bruce’s record with Benitez, you might see why some people were interested in Rafa’s “rusty bullet-hole”. Other than his good looks and tidy appearance ofc.

He's just another Pardew for me. Didn't like the fucker before he came here, didn't like him when he was here, and I'll continue disliking him after he's left. Just another snidey snake in the grass, the cabbage faced cunt.

Whilst I agree with Isegrim and Wykiki’s overall take on Bruce, I think it’s a bit off for NUFC fans to call our own manager a tosser. Come on lads, we all know he’s a crisp-eating shitcunt.

And to make things even worse, the ghost of Jimmy Hill was a regular in the Fulwell when he was a kid.

That’s a bold question, Noelie.

Sunderland only WISH they could afford weeds.

He should be nicked just for that fuckin video

Needs the other to wipe his arse.

*use two hands Steve.

I'd rather see 130,000 innocent people die that you use one death for your party political purposes. Disgusting behaviour.

Day one of the Corbyn premiership and he launches a nuclear attack in Glasgow.

Poor Sutton. Not only is he being called out as an ex-doper, they're saying he can't get a stiffy too.

Aye In all honesty, I dont think the truth will fully come out. There has been millions of Lottery money smashed into cycling and it will be tried to be covered up. Sir Dave Barilsfraud is at the centre of it all. He employed Sutton (knowing full well his doping past) He employed Leinders (knowing full well his doping past) Dr Freeman worked with Fat Sam at Bolton, I would love to know what he did there too

When Sky started dominating, they started the patter of Marginal Gains. Saying it was small things that other teams have never looked at (which was all bollocks). Stuff like having their won chef on grand tours (the likes of US Postal (Lance's team) had done this back in the 90s), banning Nutella and having the correct pillows (teams go from hotel to hotel on big races). It was all a smoke screen for the emerging cycling fans in the UK and 99% of it took it hook line and sinker. Yet people still believe Froome's victories are clean. The only clean winner I believe in at Sky / Ineos is Egan Bernal. Even then I look at that as a cynic, but I know lads who raced against him as a junior and said he was fucking shit hot then. Wiggins, Brailsford et al should all hang for this.

Also, as has already been said, who do they think would want to buy them?

This is fucking brutal. I love the bit at 1:53 where someone must have asked "can we get a friendly brownface walking through that Boris can be nice to?" Someone on here said it the other day but the Tories are at their absolute worst when they pretend to be human.

The Mag infiltration conspiracy is worse than I thought

Thats fucking delightful reading. You can hear the pennies not just dropping, but raining down. Mint

Who says Rafa wouldn’t have achieved it after being able to spend over 60m on players? Those things aren’t really comparable. The only measure is what a manager gets out of the players at his disposal. And while Bruce got a good amount of points so far we have also seen some absolutely shocking performances.

Just reading the deadline for new candidates is Thursday so he should have waited till then - that gets my cynicism radar going.

You’d need a wetsuit and snorkel to survive the sweat.

Gangs of the EPL come to life.

as for corbyn though - just say you'd hit the button and end the argument. we're building a new trident fleet. he allowed a free vote on it so just play the game and don't give them another stick to hit you with ffs

There are arguments for and against having a nuclear deterrent, I can see both sides. For me their very existence has prevented us having WW3 already and this continues to be the case, they absolutely deter physical invasion. It has fuck all to do with cyber warfare or hijacking social media. To be labelled a cretin for having an honest, logical difference of opinion is pretty embarrassing on your behalf imo. Corbyn's position on this particular point is also untenable, again imo. Rather than call people cretins who disagree, perhaps you should focus on why Corbyn has been so hopelessly naive that he has ended up in this position. At best, it shows he is not a clever politician.

Yeah but you bombed yourselves so no sympathy.

He’s been here since early 2016, ample time to have you figured out.

Aye but no one would give a shit if it were nuked. In fact having spent time in parts of Glasgow it may already have happened and no one noticed.

Dunno mate, could you not spot any ball boys from the home end like?

Tacover. I can’t be arsed
