I think they should stick with him, they can’t expect success overnight, what more do they expect, got them to their highest finish in x amount of years (too lazy to look like the pundits), think it’s disgraceful how the fans are treating him. Think that about covers it. If they don’t stick with him I’d personally like Steve Bruce to be given a chance, as Scholes says he deserves a chance to be given a role where he has lots of money to spend, plus he knows the club.

Unusual for Spurs fans to be giving money away … Reported myself.

Jokes on them, I had no morals anyway

In a bizarre coincidence there is a picture of this game in an article in today's guardian https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2021/oct/16/conflict-of-emotions-greets-newcastles-first-game-under-their-saudi-owners

Used to be amusing singing the pigbag song every time we scored against them. (I don't think they liked it.)

He knows but we don't have a Boro message board gold thread because who's got time for that shite?

Must have taken a while to for all 12 boro fans to paint that tbf

Think they've got one lined up already.

Football is a weird, parallel universe to what the rest of us live in. Bruce is praised for reaching 1000 games yet won less than a third of them, Rashford knocks out a few tweets and gets an MBE while all those working for charities or saving lives go unnoticed. Players moaning how tough it is to live on £50k a week when the rest of us are living on less than that a year. Im sure the media would be delighted if Woodward gave Bruce the Man Utd job once Ole gets the sack, They really deserve each other.

Honestly only in football could some fucking idiot that’s clinging on to his job for an £8m pay off be framed as doing some noble thing that should be highly respected. What’s he fucking done? Had about 3 days work where he’s probably phoned it in as per, and got pissy at the first question asked despite knowing full well the questions that were coming. Bruce is more than welcome to quit the job, literally everyone bar him would be buzzing if he did.

Not just that, they have morals! Which is why Boro is a tory seat.

Never lifted a cup as a manager has he?

Matt Hancock : 'I'm now working for the UN.' UN: 'No you're not.'

Never change Spurs fans.

I hate to point out the obvious cliché but.... Fascist kills MP - mental health issues. Islamist kills MP - terrorism.

If Bruce loses this he'll increase the urgency with which PIF will want to replace him, thus making his £8m more likely. I am therefore predicting an unlikely draw because I doubt Bruce has the nous even to throw a game properly.

'Top dogs' getting his cock out and waving it around in the third division, 'look at the size of this fucker, Morecambe!'

It is, however, mackem-esque.

Just Edwards’ latest blatant attempt to wind up the fans. Not that I disagree with anything you’re saying. If it’s as bad as Bruce and Edwards like to make out then the former could’ve walked away any time he wanted. He’s too fucking greedy though.

Just makes me think of Sansa Stark's dismissal of Ramsay Bolton - "You will be forgotten, your name will be forgotten, your life will be forgotten" or words to that effect.

In fairness it's not his fault. They should have gotten rid of the garden gnome come to life in Solksjaer a while back.

CR7 totally made Man Ure even better

Boro still exist by the way? What an irrelevant club, glad to see they still have a little weird mackem type rivalry with us mind.

Completely missed the likely intended slight of the bloke putting big in quotation marks. The big club argument is childish and irrelevant enough when it’s about top division sides, but imagine doing it in the third fucking tier man.

So it is

At least we have morals to sell.

Good. Although something else disgustingly well paid and thoroughly undeserved will come along shortly.

I think that’s what we’re getting from Bruce on Sunday…

The people on Twitter who were trying to blame Angela Rayner are going to be disappointed

It’s mint that I can now watch this without being fuming about what a fucking tit he is he’s just now a minor irritation before the club moves on to bigger and better things.

Looks like its being treated as an act of islamic terrorism? Will just further fuel the hate if so. It's obviously crass to blame politicians individually or collectively when tragedies like this happen, but politicians are very much to blame for many of the divisions we see in society, none more so than the prime minister. The country is fucked.

It could depend a lot on who these two Spurs players that tested positive for Covid are. I doubt we'll be lucky enough for it to be Kane and Son of course. Then again I suppose I should get past the notion we have no luck given the past week 😁 With regard to the atmosphere turning toxic, I'd rather we just concentrate on the future. Why give the twat the satisfaction. He's the past, long since a dinosaur in the game who will be forgotten as a journeyman coach. As for the match it's difficult to predict. The players might be more motivated than they've been in a long time, so expect Shelvey to have one of the maybe two or three decent games he has a season.

What the fuck is this about?

If only there was a proper supporters pub

All their chat about wanting to do things the professional and patient way and this fucking clown is starting fights with journalists

Johnson won't condemn threats on journalists and all but encourages online threats against "activist lawyers". None of which helps when you've got genuine fucking fruitloops out in the community, radicalised most recently by covid.

It’s an absolutely incredible achievement for a shambolic charlatan who was a dinosaur over a decade ago

Renton wouldn't pass for 55, never mind 25.

Let’s hope he uses some of it to fix the mould and damp on his multiple rented properties in Manchester, since he’ll have the time to get it done. The fucking cunt.

I’ve been at work today and have waited until I’m back home to read this whilst having a shite, to give it the … nnnnnnnnggghhaaaahhh… dignity he deserves.

1000 games to win nothing

He'll be delighted

Fair play. He’s in there with such luminaries as Fat Sam, Dave Bassett, Big Racist Ron, Stuart Pearce, Mick McCarthy and Jim Smith. Genuinely.

I do. It was Oddschecker.

Is this the week we can say CT has finally got the hang of this podcast recommendation lark? (You didn't think you were getting away with the CT emoji, did you?)

Mind, it takes some cheek to be a vocal backer of Brexit and post that without a hint of irony.
