Popular Post kingfox Posted 13 October 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 13 October 2021 He said he was fully committed to Watford - Walked out He said he was fully committed to Celtic - Walked out When something like this involves Rodgers, it’s always a game of wait and see. Wouldn’t be surprised if he stays, wouldn’t be surprised if this suddenly ends up turning the other way and he walks. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were a stepping stone and fully accepting of that fact if it worked out. All in all it has worked out and has been successful. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it fails he’ll still get a whopper of a payout and his reputation won’t take a hit because it’ll be seen as a bit of a poisoned chalice. He's on 10 million now isn't he? Doubt he'll get double that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simoken Posted 13 October 2021 Share Posted 13 October 2021 (edited) The whole funny side to this NUFC takeover is that they have not promised big money spending. This could be a spurs job all over again. #commercial value #goldmine #sodthesquad Edited 13 October 2021 by Simoken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You like it mushy ehhhhhhh To be honest im not bothered with what happens. If he wants to leave then a door will open. No sense keeping a manager who wont be fully committed . If he wants to stay, great things are good. People will make decisions that they feel are right for them. I think we all know whoever takes over after bruce gets sacked is a stop gap measure. So in that scenario being the second one in makes sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AjcW Posted 13 October 2021 Share Posted 13 October 2021 Going to be tough to put his imprint on the side, what with job sharing with the 32 other ***** who have been offered the job…. Oh and Steve Bruce who hasn’t been sacked yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you think Watford fans envisaged him leaving them for Swansea? Edited 13 October 2021 by AKCJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ely fox Posted 13 October 2021 Share Posted 13 October 2021 If the Premier League bring in a wage cap then that will totally screw Newcastle United. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dobbylcfc Posted 13 October 2021 Share Posted 13 October 2021 Why do people get there nickers in a twist over this sort of stuff has Brendan said he’s off NO Has he said he wants to go NO it’s just the same media B0110cks that’s been spread around us regarding him with moves to Spurs Arsenal ect and all our players in the summer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he succeeds he gets so much money to spend and a top top job after. If he fails he ends up even more filthy rich than he is and would still get a relatively top job like Arsenal or Spurs.

splinterdream Posted 13 October 2021 Share Posted 13 October 2021 I think.people under estimate our pull on Brendan. From what I gather Rodgers is happy at the club, he likes it here, is on good money and gets on with Top, to chuck that I'm to go Newcastle could go tits up in so many ways, he could be in and them out of a job in a season of he goes.

Sunbury Fox Posted 13 October 2021 Share Posted 13 October 2021 Seems like there is a palpable sense of uncertainty and malaise around the club at the moment. Instead of positivity we're hearing (admittedly possibly apocryphal) stories/ rumours of who might leave, we're seeing booing from fans, we're wracked by injuries and seeing very poor performances and results on the pitch. In this context the next few games are really important. Lose them, which looks likely at the minute, and it will really start to feel like 2016/17 - without the redeeming feature of an excellent run in the CL (by contrast our EL hopes could be all but over in a week's time). Worrying times, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
