    Can we build a monument outside of St James's Park with cabbages.? If only people were allowed inside the ground he'd be getting them thrown at him.

    It's just incredible isn't it? Charnley hires the ****test manager in premier league history and 18 months here we are.... I mean what could possibly go wrong?

    Burnley and Brighton have much easier games than us and Fulham.

    Just had a look at the fixtures and I'd say Brighton are in serious trouble too actually.

    If we beat them we might be OK

    The Sheffield United game for both of us could be key and obviously when we play each other.

    Did everyone not notice there was no sign of Jones nd that Bruce was in his technical area barking instructions throughout yesterday?

    I felt like that was how we played before Jones and I think he's told Jones to sit down and started doing his own thing again.. Was it just me?

    Jones came in and seemed to lift players, being vocal and demanding. The more he's been shunted, the worse we've got. Words fail me with Steve Bruce, there is no low to which he won't sink.

    I'm so tired of his media brainwashing...no matter what happens, no matter what goes on off the pitch or on it, he says its all great, it's not his fault and it's just 'Newcastle' and grins.

    This comment from Bruce just sums things up for me :-

    upload_2021-3-8_9-18-2.png

    So basically, 8 days from when we last played (and knew Miggy and ASM wouldn't be playing in our next game) isn't enough time to change formation/shape/personnel from game to game? How the **** do other managers manage to do it, sometimes twice in the space of a week for midweek games? Maybe if he didn't give the team half the ****ing week off it might help !!

    What an absolute ****ing arse clown we have in charge of our players! I'm so pleased his contract is up next year. We're stuck with him until then unfortunately! If we get taken over (regardless of what league we're in) then getting shot of him is someone else's problem.

    I actually agree with him about a change in system... I don't think it's wise to change, but the problem I have is that bruce chopped and changed our formation every bloody week until Jones came in.

    Bruce's full of **** and he insults people's intelligence with this type of comment.. We all know he's not only changed things throughout, but he's even done interviews saying that you have to be able to play more than one way..

    I think he forgets he's said these things and I think he's just an absolutely clueless manager that shouldn't be anywhere near management.

    This jobs for the boys attitude in football really needs to go... Other sports have coaches football has ex players with coaching badges and friends in high places... The two things are very different.

    He's beyond clueless. He gets things wrong continuously.
