You as much as anyone. I don't think anyone is saying Bruce is a better manager than Benitez as that just simply isn't true. One has a stellar management record while the other is a bit of a lower prem plodder. Its just the fact that you personally and many other Newcastle fans are incapable of judging the here and now because of rafa's reputation - you over egged his performance as Newcastle manager which was no better than moderate. After the bad start last year typical comments were 'what he supposed to do with this shower of shit?' while any Bruce defeat will inevitably be down to the tactics of a dinosaur. Bruce may have carried a bit of fortune this year but what this year does prove is that Rafa wasn't doing anything more than a moderate job with a squad of players who were getting broadly where they should be. Bruce may well have had a better structure but Bruce has got more out of Almiron and I don't think Bruce would have even entertained ASM and certainly wouldn't have played him and Almiron in the same team.

In short Bruce has completely shown you up - no wonder you don't like him.
To be honest Bruce has done far better than I expected given his record and from what I had seen of his performances at other clubs.

What it comes down to, for me, is the OTT criticism Benitez gets from pundits, some Newcastle fans and yes, people on here. He's got faults and flaws, but he's nowhere near as bad as people make out.
Couple that with the OTT praise Bruce gets from pundits, some Newcastle fans and people on here. You lot were laughing at his appointment pre-season, no other Prem club would have employed him and we were among the favourites for the drop. Now that we're safe he's doing a great job, Newcastle fans were wrong to doubt him and he's doing as good a job as Benitez. I mean, ffs, there's been of Bruce being in the Manager of the Year conversation! It's mental how people have forgotten how awful we were against Norwich, or Leicester, and so on. Yes, he's done well, but as for 'proving' Benitez did nothing more than a moderate job, that's a stretch.

Bruce has proven all but his most ardent supporters wrong. And he should get praise for that, but fuck me, the bar was set pretty low for him.
 
Plenty going on, this is just a nice distraction for me. You could ask the same of Binxy, S.visage et al.

Yet there's plenty on here who persist in comparing Benitez' time at Newcastle with Bruce's. Either you cannot compare seasons or you can. Which is it?

It has nowt to do with seasons 😂

The only stats il accept are from opta. You had a handful of stats from a site that use opta and a load of awful websites.

The site that used opta didn't show any of the arguments you've made for weeks in this thread. I'm bored of arguing a fact.

Tell you what, stump up the 5 figure sum for access and I'll happily prove you wrong with stat you deign to be acceptable.

The onus is on you to prove your argument. If you can't prove it. It's just your opinion that you waffle as fact.

At the moment you can't prove it so expect people to say your talking shite a lot but that's nowt new for you is it 😂

I'm confident in the stats I've already provided, I'm confident that the core point I'm making is sound. You're the one who shifts the goalposts every time you've been made to look silly.

You can't prove your points. Nowt to do with shifting goal posts.

I could create a website called banks soccer stats and fable a table that points out that you are wrong and provide that as a source.

The internet is full of trashy websites. You are entitled to your opinion but it's the wrong opinion. It's just propaganda because you don't like Bruce.

"The wrong opinion". Have you heard yourself man. You're not the arbiter of whether an opinion is right or wrong.

I could show you all the performance metrics I like, I could recount anecdotal evidence, but because of your anti-NUFC, anti-Benitez bias nothing would be good enough. I've shown you stats which you dismissed because they weren't Opta stats, when I showed you were, you dismissed them again.

If you want to show my proof is unsound, prove the opposite. That's how a conversation works. I've made my case, I've backed it with evidence. If you have evidence that proves my evidence is unsound I'll happily review it. But you don't, your sole tactics appear to be to arbitrarily declare my evidence (Opta or otherwise) unsound.

You are mental.

An opinion is just an opinion until it can be proven. You can't prove it. Nothing more to see here.
Ah, fucked up the code in bolding the text. Bollocks.

Pot calling kettle black.

At least I've never bullied a woman in here.
 
I'm just chatting on here while I do other things/wait for other things to finish. I'm not on here during the weekends or in the evenings when real life is happening.
It’s not just chatting though. It’s long tedious repetitive posts with cherry-picked stats that you must have to trawl the internet for.

Goalposts moved again. < 😂 >.

My past posts aren't hidden. They are easily searchable if you're not an absolute dunce in the exact same way I found those.
Do your mates know your relentless on here Sima?

My name is 'Sima', not 'relentless'

Are you confused?

I do apologize. You hide your profile not your posts like a coward 😂

I don't need to trawl your posts. I know your snide and a coward who picks on women.

Moving goalposts? I doubt Katie price and Dianne Abbot post on these boards mate. I haven't gone out of my way to intimidate them unlike you.
