He seems comfortable to me sadly When asked if he had held any dialogue with the powers that be about an ultimatum, Bruce told the Chronicle Live: "It is absolutely the biggest pile of ***** I have ever heard."

Friday evening and work is finished for the week. Come home and my little wife has prepared spaghetti and meatballs for tea. Pour a rum and black to start the evening off. Try to decide what to do next. Music? Film? Watch the football on the tv? Catch up on NUFC on NOT606? Decide on the latter and turn on the iPad. Find the iPad isn’t working properly and I end up on a site which is a cross between Mumsnet and Manic Depressive’s Corner.
We are the only game on tomorrow night live on sky..:..: and it’s liiiiiivvvvveeee. So that means the whole ducking world is watching us about to get our arse handed to us. And they get to see Bruce at his finest. So let’s get the beers ready and the pop corn. And watch the ****ing gloves are off Truman show!
Surely this is Ashley not wanting to sack Bruce as it would cost him so it’s cheaper to hire another coach which won’t be his problem soon anyway?
Unless Bruce has specifically asked for this, it seems designed to piss him off and offer a cheap alternative to if they have to sack him. Don't think MA is going anywhere and it's back to normal business now Bruce has burnt his fingers: no money and chancing it like he did with Hughton/Pardew
