    The club are seemingly choosing relegation.

    I’m baffled as to why.

    -EFL approval for takeover?
    - contractual reasons?

    It's quite simple... The price is agreed for nufc and the Saudis won't pay the 4 million to sack Bruce or the millions to entice a worthy replacement... Basically Ashley would have to pay and he'd rather risk it all than lose 10 million of his money

    but he’s just trousered the compo from the initial failed bud from PIF. That more than covers Bruce’s pieces of silver.

    The international break wil be interesting. Most players will still be at the club, as we have bugger all internationals, so I hope we use this opportunity to put a line in the sand and build some desire and tactical awarness. It's not just Bruce, but his staff too, that have to raise the bar.

    Shelvey better be on the training pitch dawn til dusk trying to get his pass to hit a player, without it spending an eternity in the air. Free-kicks and corners too. If not he shouldn't be near the team.

    Let me explain my thinking here on why I, and IMO everyone, should jack it in - Ashley is "sticking by" Bruce because of his loyalty. What does this mean? What is loyalty, in this sense? It struck me that loyalty means towing the line, saying nothing against Mike, having no ambition and allowing this sham to continue. So what does that make us, following the club out of a sense of loyalty? Idiots and sympathisers. So STOP, I say. Stop in every sense of the word, and let it stay dead.

    I won't stay "loyal" if that puts me in a bucket with Bruce, and makes me alright in the eyes of Ashley. Loyalty is to myself, my happiness, my family, my life - not these ****ing ****s. So I'm done, til he's gone.

    Precisely Bruce's essentially despite his self proclaimed tough guy image just a gutless turd without any ambition.

    He sucks Ashley's plums all day every day.

    He's the guy at work that does nothing, but complain about the way things are being run during lunch breaks, but in a meeting when someone takes the battle to the manager he sits quietly, let's them fall and nods his head when the manager rejects their views.

    All this loyalty and sympathy crap that Ashley has apparently said about SB is a load of horseshit.

    Ashley does not give a **** about loyalty and he does not have any sympathy towards anyone.

    “Hey Mike your about to lose 200m of value”.....

    “Yes that’s ok though he’s (SB) loyal and I feel sorry for him, so it’s ok. Crack on Steve”.

    Utter tripe!

    I said from day 1 that if you asked him to do something he'd immediately make the decision to never grant your request..

    Nufc fans kick and scream and the more they do it the more he says **** OFF

    An unwillingness to spend 4m on replacing the manager is a damning indication of the new owners objectives.

    Roman spends that regularly if the club is not achieving their objectives and have been one of the countries most successful teams over the past 15 years because of this fast action.

    Do you think the empty stadiums are keeping him in a job? Also, what would the attendance be at the minute?

    I don't think it bothers Ashley but the atmosphere would be horrendous with fans in. Attendance would be usual, people still go
