All rules will have to be thrown out of the window now for the sake of the reejun.
The MPs were all behind this takeover they’ll bend over backwards to appease the Saudi government

You're probably right mate.

On that thread there are people who are obviously experts saying that the last planning application was thrown out "because a few old blokes with allotments objected, but they'll be dead now".

Other are very seriously pointing out that "as NUFC will have a world class team in 2 seasons, the PIF will obviously demand that they have the best stadium in the world".

You can't argue with that cast iron logic - though they may find the best stadium in the world is built in Neom - not Newcastle.
 
Daft mag bint on the BBC now "it takes a special sort of manager to manage Newcastle". ffs.

The scary thing is, some of the wankers actually believe it. With the possible exception of Bobby Robson (who won nothing and the mags turned on him), how many special managers have they actually had?
 
Stone me mate, you know more about NUFC than I do....

I understand your points, but trying to match the 2 is stupid, no matter what money was spent, I see you ignored the fact Bruce brought Wilson in, and I presume Rafa had no injuries during his time....

For what its worth, I stopped going when Rafa was manager as the football was shite and boring....I'm not a Rafa fan but even I can see Bruce is the worst manager we've had out of a very bad bunch....


He had some good runs, I can't deny that, but he was a dinosaur, his tactics in some games were horrendous....
I don't know it, I just looked at stats on that transfermarkt website as I knew you had ASM/Wilson missing and saw they'd missed more than I thought. I now see another name on the sheet player in Paul Dummet was injured until March and his record in the last 12 games he was in was W5 D4 L3 so 1.58 PPG or 60 PTS per season. Laschelles missed 19 games last season through injury so was he a big miss given he's your captain at the moment?

So that's Dummet, Wilson, ASM and Laschelles missing for a lot of last season (nearly half) which surely will have been a huge miss given the lack of squad strength? 🤔 You also didn't have Dubravka in goal until the end of Feb and him along with Willock will have helped the team with Dummet, Wilson, ASM & Dubravka also being available. This season you've only had ASM & Wilson in for 4 games together and ASM by himself for 4 games with Dummet and Dubravka missing all 8 league games. Surely any manager in the bottom half would struggle if you took away some of the 1st on team sheet players that much?

Also look at the players that came in after Bruce that cost some decent money as that's Wilson & Jamal Lewis last season and Willock. You've leaked more goals with Bruce than Benitez and were screaming for at least 1 defender but why didn't you buy one? Bruce also lost 2 less games in the 2 season comparison that both got 90 pts.

Bruce isn't the greatest manager but I'd ask has he had a shit hand if you look at the bigger picture? Very few, if anyone mentions the missing players last season and this or the PPG when they played or the good run you had end of season due to many of the players above playing. Most just bleat on about his 28% win percentage and 7 wins in 38 but I guess that's because it's a simple easy stat I suppose.

She might not think any of their previous managers have been special tbf - that's why they've won nowt. She is probably implying that only a special manager can succeed at Newcastle - because they're "more than a club" remember - or summat like that.
