He's going to be the worst paid prem manager, with no say on transfers. Then he's answerable to Charnley & will be hated by the fans. It makes for a smashing season & not even a balls been kicked.

Crazy isn't it, I suppose the only good thing from that figure is there was 36k last season.

Rafa's new team won again 3-2 at the weekend it also seen the match attendance almost doubled from 22k to almost 42k

Just seen this Wednesday can take out an injunction against Bruce, preventing him from taking the job until terms are met. Palace had to do just this in 2001 when Bruce resigned to take Birmingham job

He'll be perfect for Ashley then

So will Ashley get him without paying compo now ? Genuine question lads

The Mirror saying if Bruce takes the job he'll be the worst paid manager in the premiership. He'll be on £1 million a year which is £20k a week 6 times less than Rafa.

Now on Saturday morning, The Mail are saying that they have been told Martin Dubravka is ‘unsettled’ and that Manchester United Tottenham and Aston Villa are all keen. The report states that Monaco and Porto are also interested.

"Adam & the ants" I luv it

If Ashley insists on Bruce & his assistants it could cost more than it would to have kept Benitez. What a scary thought.

You honestly couldn't make this shit up Reports that the compensation is set at £5million are understood to be on the hefty side but it is more than the £1million that was originally quoted. Wednesday owner Dejphon Chansiri wants substantial compensation for the disruption a move to Newcastle will cause at Hillsborough. United Managing Director Lee Charnley is seemingly trying to drive a hard bargain with the knowledge that anything spent in compensation could potentially come out of a transfer budget handed to the new boss. As of Friday afternoon, the two sides were still locked in talks.

The transfer kitty

Wor Chest

I always thought Hughton was one of the good guys. He stood up to Ashley about the players bonuses which ultimately lead to him being dismissed

So Sheffield Wednesday want £5 million compo . Ashley's probably offered £1 million

Rumours going round that the estimated 10k season ticket non renewal has gone up to 13/14k now.

Go to see Gateshead United or Blyth Spartans I'm sure your kid will get just as much enjoyment.

There should be no reason whatsoever for anyone who's a NUFC fan to enter SJP.

This is Ashley's "Fuck You" to the fans

The table shows total number of Premier League games managed, average points per PL game, then the average goals for and against in the Premier League: As we can see Bruce has an excellent record

This is Ashley's way of laughing at us. He can afford to do it, I bet he's thought its hysterical to get rid of Rafa, Perez & in a way (pathetic bid) Rondon. He's probably sat in his office thinking what else will piss the jawdee's off. I know Bruce as manager, so what if the clubs relegated , I might sell it then leave them in the Championship. I dont care I've made a fortune out of the place anyway who's the FCB now eh.

Its being done on purpose now, Ashley's obviously up for a fight with the fans

Hopefully thousands more will see it like that & stay away from SJP.

The clubs not getting sold man.
