I'll give him credit for taking the job on.
Won't stop me laughing as I prepare for a renewal of hostilities next season.

The good news is that Ashley doesn't seem to mind it if his Managers are unpopular with the Fans.
It deflects some of the abuse away from himself.
It's perhaps why he didn't try hard to keep the previous, popular, incumbent in place.
But Our Friends to the North are by no means as patient as our lot.
They are also more demanding.
Welcome home Steve

Do you think Bruce will be employed by the Mags at Christmas?

linkNewcastle United made relegation favourites - as Steve Bruce endures disastrous start
The Magpies – who appointed former Sunderland manager Steve Bruce as their new boss this summer – have suffered defeat in their first two fixtures of the campaign. An opening day defeat to Arsenal was accompanied by a battling performance, with only some tactical confusion costing the Tynesiders. But after a 3-1 defeat at newly-promoted Norwich City – in which Newcastle put in a dire performance – the side have been installed as favourites to drop out of the Premier League. Bruce’s side were 5/2 at the start of the campaign, but have now been backed into even money. BoyleSports spokesman Lawrence Lyons said: “Newcastle’s start has really caught the eye of punters. “They’re more likely relegation candidates than any other team in the league now, having been gambled into even money from 5/2.”

Bruce was start of my declining interest in all things SAFC. The second season when we went something like 17 games without a win hit me like a hammer. The rot that had set in when he dismantled a pretty decent side (whatever the reasons for it), started to bite big time.

I was actually a season ticket holder when he came, soon stopped coming down and never renewed it, even to this day. He always took pleasure in having a dig at Sunderland when he was a punter on TV, plus he slated the supporters once when we had a very low gate one night, he said we were a disgrace. FGB Hope he takes them 'doon' 😆 |
