    Feels like that. I heard nothing from the NUFC comms lady. Not that I'd expect to, but it really feels like there's about 10 people running the club. Utterly stripped back, typical for acquisition. There may yet be some pain - I think Villa will tear us a new one and there'll be no comment or reaction once again. But that, for me, would be a more telling sign than an immediate managerial replacement.

    Still quite a lot furloughed, right?

    I would presume so
    the ticket office staff could work from home but there are no tickets to sell
    there are Reception, Bar and Kitchen staff who are also on furlough

    He's been playing in midfield. You just haven't noticed him as he's gone missing with the rest of our midfield.

    Is that good or bad news? Good for him.

    I personally still remain on the fence with the takeover!

    Best not to think of it. He's an asset and has value, so increasing his value cannot be bad.

    It's also feasible decisions are now being decided collectively.

    Clark is decent, but it's the players Bruce's getting rid of.. Lejeune, Schar.. He's desperate to sell almiron so he can buy someone **** like Fraser or hendrick...

    He's also managed schar out the club and he can now leave for free... Its unreal.. He keeps persisting with jonjo for some inexplicable reason too.. He gave him a new contract aswel a ritchie. Both have been finished for years... I can tolerate ritchie but not shelvey.. All this nonsense about his passing ability.. He cant run,, can't take corners, can't take free kicks, can't tackle, can't header, can't beat a man... He can't do anything
