The Saudis have been proven legally to not be connected to the state and have no control of the club.
Fair enough, I'm probably passing on some frustration from listening to pundits who "I DU FEYL A BI' 4 STV BWUCE YE" in their copy and paste accents. I have only ever heard the 8m figure but 4m is a insane amount considering he was only ever going to be sacked from the position. The old owners were simply gash at contracts, Pardew one is a prime example, letting Perez go for buttons. I think they haven't instantly sacked him because most of the coaching staff are his boys and will walk, so they need to keep them in place so training can take place. Otherwise it would be Jones on his bill setting up cones.
What’s in anyway dignified about sacking him and then making him go through the ignominy of having to be in the dugout in front of 50k fans who largely hate his guts? Engage brain? Take your own advice.
I'm with Tobes on this one @jammy When your dog is ****ting itself, cant walk straight and periodically wants to shag the radiator, you have to put it down and out of its misery.
@Saff would be a Newcastle fan if they offered him 4 - 8M for just getting sacked. Bruce is Man U through n through.
Proven is incorrect, nothing was proven or ruled upon in a court or arbitration. What changed was that the Saudis produced something that apparently guarantees that Newcastle won’t be run or influenced in any way by MBS, the PL have claimed this is legally binding and have accepted it.
Dont remember us getting raped by Man U at Old Trafford and Bruce walked off laughing his head off with Ole? That's the day he lost every single Newcastle fan forever. Just before that moment he did have a minority but a collection of supporters.
Now Rodgers or Lampard..... Seems that this hasn't been thought about by AS. Bruce until end of the season, what woudl the odds be?
That face has seen some horrors over the years, but nothing after a meeting with AS compares. Lampard would be a great choice. but Rodgers moving from Leicester would have you spunking
They ****ing hate him though ffs. I can see it now, Big Steve in the centre circle as Staveley hands him a gold watch, a cheque for £4m and his P45, before taking his place in the dugout, as that’s how footie works isn’t it. Oh hang on……
Honestly whoever they employ is fine.. I'd rather stay clear of lamps Chelsea were **** and he's a boring individual that talks out the side of his mouth
