Still, might not happen yet as his compo is about 3 million quid. Imagine breaking his "no employed manager" rule to buy out STEVE BRUCE's contract. To be fair it looked like they would pay Derby for McClaren, but he knocked us back. Then he got sacked and we signed him up in the summer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 39129 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Aye, it was the two wins in 13 that really convinced Ashley that he was the man for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the Bruce appointment does make sense, as going off that track record they may actually believe he’s a competent manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wykikitoon 28481 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 You've got to laugh because daft cunts LIKE Jordan still pedal that we are at a level now where that's the sort of manager we attract. The bitter cockney cunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 17219 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Going for Allardyce is blatantly vindictive tbh. Then again, you can say anything about Ashley and Charnley and they’ll not come out and dispute it so who knows? Allardyce is probably on the wind-up.

wykikitoon 28481 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 There's no fucking way he was contacted, no fucking way. He's been back pedalling ever since he said that.

PaddockLad 22425 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 A lot of journos were reporting it last night. Why the fuck would Allardyce lie? It would be easy for any NE based reporter to confirm whether it was true or not. Rafa told them he was leaving in mid May. It’s now mid July. Sheff Weds have far more potential than NUFC under Ashley. Alex Bruce already getting abuse from mongs on Twitter. My money is on Bruce turning it down too. It’s Redfern in charge v Arsenal iyam.

Ayatollah Hermione 17219 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Bruce has asked to speak with us by all accounts so seems like it might be moving in that direction. We’re like Make-A-Wish but one that grants second chances to busted, finished managers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 28481 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Let's be honest. Why would anyone take the job unless they were out of work? Weds have a decent owner now havent they and someone who invests into the club. He's jumping from that and into a position of the total opposite.

He will certainly improve his salary and getting better terms in regards to the length of the contract. By the state of his head, his ego, as with most managers, will certainly be big enough to think that he can actually do a good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone up and coming will be put off it because they won't want to risk looking like a total flop first job in when it's untenable and possibly the rafa treatment being public. Only offerings we're going have is someone arrogant who isn't a big name and think they can do well (like fat sam at the time) and is at a smaller club with little comp to be paid or is a free agent Aye, you can meet your mates in a heroin den covered in shit and get more enjoyment.
