luckyluke 2 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 The worrying thing about all this is that our 'unreasonable expectations' may put off good managers from applying for the job leaving us with Steve Fucking Bruce, or some other fuckwit. 88556[/snapback] Would cost over £6m in compensation to get Bruce, so it's not gonna happen. Same with Allardyce, so I've no idea why he's such a favourite for it. 88589[/snapback] You've just made my day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birmingham's Chairman would have to be even stupider than Shepherd to tie Bruce into that kind of deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not then I take it back, and Bruce is the idiot for agreeing to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6700 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 There was a cock of a Spurs fan (personally I reckon their new badge - cock on a ball is quite apt) who run Talkport this morning and said he can't see anyone wanting the job as Newcastle fans expectations are too much... He reckoned that if a manager didn't deliver silverware within 6 months, we get on their back until they're sacked as we demand success.... What a fucking cock!!

Craig 6700 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 When we sacked Robson and we approached Bruce, he'd just signed a new contract which stated that a buy-out would cost us £6m which is why Fat Fuck looked elsewhere... I'm sure I read somewhere that after 12 months, the buy-out clause dropped by 50% - either way, £3m is STILL too much for a donkey like Steve Bruce!

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 The general public as a collective are stupid. If the likes of Talksport and Sky say something enough it apparently becomes true. How ironic, coming from a Spurs fans as well. Just like the way everyone has gone overboard about Sol Campbells display midweek. Aye, he's become total shite overnight like. On a related note, this has brougt a bout a new phrase this week. 'Going for a Sol Campbell' apparently now means 'a quick half then off home.' Boom-boom!
