ciggiesnbeer Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 I am manifesting. Steve Bruce stays manager for a few games. They get in a new very expensive manager who spends a crap ton of money in January and gets them relegated in a catastrophic implosion. This would make me happy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is absolutely astonishing that a manager as poor as Steve Bruce can have amassed 1,000 games as a manager, with most of them being in the top two divisions. Absolutely stole a living for his whole managerial career. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Son is one who has apparently returned a positive covid test, Bryan Gil the other. KSA Utd will probably win on Sunday. Long live the cabbage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MachoFantastico Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Genuinely curious to see was Newcastle do, expect they'll get rid of Bruce after a few more games but now that the Saudi government own them it'll be interesting to see what they get up too. The media already predicting they'll do a City and throw huge amounts of cash at the likes of Mbappe which is pretty funny. Highly doubt we'll see a repeat of City's spending due to FFP, though it's not like that even works that well. Still, interesting times down there.

The southern tip of Finland is further south than the northernmost extreme of the UK. Helsinki is only as far north as Lerwick. Yes, I am available for parties. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he’s a **** terrible author. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaJ100 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 23 hours ago, Genie said: He also spent a fortune Xia? He didn't have any money to spend. Or rather, none of it was his. He cashed in future transfer fee instalments, borrowed against future parachute payments. He had as much money as me and I'm in my overdraft. He was even mortgaging 2 bed semi's in Erdington that the club owned to get a few quid! I will say in defence of Xia though, seeing as Hicks and Gillette and the Glazers bought clubs without spending a single penny of their own money he probably thought he could do the same.

Almost ignored that international stars dont go to City. They never bought a Messi, Neuer, Lewandowski player at the elite except Silva. Even De Bruyne and Aguero were still a little unproven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
