    More Steve Bruce on what Mike Ashley said: "What he reiterated was it's in the hands of the Premier League and it's been like that for weeks. "We need a decision and one quickly. How long do we need to make that decision?" #nufc

    Steve Bruce: "All I want is what's best for this great club. If new owners come in and take the club forward that's what we all want as Newcastle fans." #nufc

    Apparently he told a lot of people Inc. Several journalists that his aim this season was to beat Rafas points total from last season to prove that British managers are better. That's why they've all been up his arse.

    SB on the season: "It's a long hard season and there'll be a few ups and downs. With experience you try to stay in the middle but I've been determined to come and enjoy it. I'm a Newcastle lad and I want the club to do well. To be the manager has been a pleasure so far."

    If I was a footie manager, the first thing I’d want my team doing is to press the opposition. It forces other teams to make mistakes, giving you more possession, meaning more chances to score. Why some managers don’t get players to press is baffling. & it’s not just the best teams who do it either, Southampton do it, Brighton do too.

    Mike Ashley called Bruce on video to say thankyou to him and the players and nothing more

    Bruce looked devastated

    tbh it's last game of the season and Ashley was imo likley to do that.

    reading into Bruce a mood is a bit much I think

    Or maybe he was told more

    Tears in his eyes

    A passionate Steve Bruce on #NUFCTakeover: “Is it going to happen or not? How long do we want? Let’s hope we can get the clarity we all need in the next few days...or week.” #NUFC

    That sounds to me like we may find something out this coming week. But I’ve said this before and looked like a tit. So I’ll have my reservations.

    It could be he was emotional for other reasons.. He's had it rough I don't care who you're it takes a strong character to put up with it like he has... Maybe he was told well done and it all came out but he looked the opposite of happy
