He had the best squad in the division by absolutely miles at Villa and couldn't get them above mid table. The game has totally moved on from him, he's done. He won't last a year at Newcastle. He's a competent if unexciting championship level manager these days. I guess all the better ones don't want the Newcastle job (can't blame em) think losing Raffa is a big blow to Newcastle who are going to struggle.

Don't forget the fact they have sold or are in the process of selling all their best players as well. Its like he is asset stripping prior to leaving. He's had about 20 offers to buy Newcastle in his time there from all over the world. None of them have progressed particularly far and the current one from the Zayed group is apparently not close to completion either and nor have they proven they actually have the funds to complete the deal. I don't actually think he is sincere in his desire to sell the club - just makes the right noises to try and appease the Newcastle fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintRam Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 The Sun say Newcastle sent £4m to Sheff Wed and then Bruce left before it was accepted to attempt to force Chansiri into not negotiating for more.

Anon Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 I've just found out that Steve Bruce has written several murder mystery books starring an extremely thinly veiled surrogate of himself. They sound absolutely incredible. https://thesetpieces.com/features/sweeper-steve-bruce-review/ "Except the thing I know best! A sliding tackle! I may have been handcuffed, but my legs were free. He went down. I kicked out. I caught him on the jaw. He went out like a light. For a tough terrorist, he'd been very careless." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioactiveWaste Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Here's to hoping Wednesday go down the legal boardroom bloodbath route. It's always funny when it's not your club. Ben Gibson is probably preparing his own lawsuit as well "Sheffield Wednesday got £4m but Steve Bruce resigned so my club should be awarded a place in the top 6 and Steve Bruce as compensation" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure he didn't actually write them just did a deal with the guy who did so they'd get published - I'm sure I heard that anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm ignoring your comment. As far as I'm concerned he penned 3 novels starring himself and that's how people are going to hear the news from me. It's the best thing I've heard in ages.
