One source said: 'There has long been an inquest into who has been leaking stories from the training ground and the manager has stood back and watched players and staff accuse each other, yet he is the biggest leak of all. Most of the players do not trust him and do not like him.' Several players want new assistant boss Graeme Jones to take charge until the end of the season, believing he represents their best chance of avoiding relegation. Bruce, it is claimed, even told some players that he thought Jones was to blame for the tactical mix-up that led to Wolves' goal. This spread among the squad on Tuesday and was met with a response of, 'It's never his fault'.
Depends on the barge. Was it a full on shoulder to his head/chest or as the fat twat walked passed his shoulder clipped Ritchie?
Remember that time the fans hated an abhorrent manager who was out of line and still kept his job? Pardew, Kinnear and now Bruce. Anyone expecting the chuckle brothers to actually act must be supporting a different Newcastle.
Or has Bruce been set up? Ritchie has defended Mike Ashley in the past. Maybe was told to wind up Bruce Now sackable under gross misconduct?
Maybe that was the issue. Ritchie and Bruce are arguing Charnley is watching and eating popcorn Charnley drops the popcorn Bruce dives forward to save the popcorn Ritchie was in the way and gets clobbered. Non story
