If he doesn't go now it will make things awkward for a while Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I would love him to stay at S6, of course, but morally, there is no way he should. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

You should just avoid the "Merry-Go-Round" managers, like McClaren, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

If Mr FFP Dodger is the thoroughly decent sort that we all believe he is, then it's possible that after giving Mr Bruce permission to talk to Newcastle, they both (however reluctantly) agreed to Mr Bruce doing a runner providing Mr FFP Dodger was adequately compensated - otherwise things would stay as they were. It could be just the Wednesday fans that are getting the wrong end of the stick (surely not) and overreacting to a situation that both Mr FFP Dodger and Mr Bruce are perfectly happy with... ... or maybe not.

Can I ask what the chairman has done that’s not legal in business? Is it much different to McCabe setting up various shell companies and moving SUFC’s assets to them, then selling the “club” for a pound to someone he hopes will then buy the rest for a healthy profit but who hasn’t actually got any money so try’s to borrow it off the Bin Ladens? I think the muck spreaders on here need to think before they cast abuse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I think the muck spreaders on here need to think before they cast abuse. Kevin McCabe moving the club to another entity was not with the aim to fiddle the books, to hide a loss that would cost you a points deduction. Do keep up. I am fine with what your owner has done, as long as people come out of the woodwork and admit he is a liar for saying he sold the ground in your 2017/2018 accounting period. The BBC are even looking into it https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/48964055 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I'm flattered that you seem to think that I might know the answers to these questions Mr Top, but unfortunately I know as little as everyone else on here. I only popped in to try to help explain what might have happened and to give both Mr FFP Dodger and Mr Bruce the benefit of the doubt which many Wednesday 'fans' seem unable to do. I'll probably not bother next time... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Ridgewalk 90 #130 Posted July 15, 2019 14 hours ago, rogets said: Correct me if I'm wrong but did Bruce not lead a football team to victory at Wembley a few years ago? He is good and proven, so sought after as a manager. I accept the other team were hopeless and inept, but he still has a track record of winning Well if you think leading a Premier League team to victory over a third division team means Bruce is a great manager, carry on. His ability isn't really the question though is it ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
