The Manager Merry-go-Round

[chef]

Allegri?

He wanted a year off.

Allegri?

Allegri didn’t want the job and we’d be going down the same path regardless.. would be gone in 1-2 years. Lampard is a huge risk but if it comes off it gives us a chance to find some identity and get some continuity going. Rather than win a trophy every couple of years only for the manager to be sacked within 12 months.

Allegri?

Another defensive Italian coach is the last person we needed.

Steve Bruce is nowhere near it, where did you see that?

Boom.

Agent Bruce returns?

Was amused to hear Fat Sam say he turned down the job also...

At the time he wasn't.

Apparently Cashley had a crack at Gerrard also.

At the time he wasn't.

When I posted that originally, Luke Edwards from the Telegraph was running with it, and he's pretty clued in when it comes to anything Geordie.

Wonder how much old Brucie will have to spend, especially if they sell Longstaff for 30M or so.

That'd be 60 - 70M in sales including Perez but I'd be shocked if he was allowed even to spend half of that.

Reckon someone like Almiron might try to force a move now also.

In fairness has that ever been a particularly strong character trait of his?

Steve Bruce fan confrontation.

Haven't been in here in a bit. The two big news story are of course Rafa leaving Newcastle which is a huge blow for them. For me, they will be relegated next season.

Fancy being as s**t as Newcastle are and being lucky enough to somehow have a world class manager in charge to keep you in the Premier League. Then letting him walk. Cashley is an idiot.

Lampard to Chelsea is huge. I think it's way too early and will end horribly but it will be exciting and interesting to watch.

This will end well.

The human testicle hasn't got a clue.

I honestly feel sorry for Newcastle fans. Great community club in a small city that punches above their weight and they have a ******* owner who has only got one good manager in and then let him walk. Keeps bringing in the used car salesmen instead.

 

[jod23]

Can't believe they've gone from Rafa to Steve ******* Bruce. Haha

Newcastle fans must be gutted.

Could be worse, they could’ve gone from Rafa to Roy Hodgson.

Woy > Bruce as a manager. Hodgson’s a good fit for lower-tier PL sides, Bruce is Championship standard.

Steve Bruce seems like a decent fella. Hodgson is a c*nt.
