I don't get the conman part keggy ?
Inadequate, yes !
That said I know little about him and his history as I tend to steer well clear of the rags.
From his post match interviews he comes across as desperate to prove himself.
He lies all the time and isn't called out for it . For example he said post West Ham three wins on the bounce . It isn't, it's a draw and two wins. About Saint Maximin he's said he's been available for far fewer games than is the case. It's a constant drip drip of misinformation.
He's forever trying to engender sympathy, been calling for a ban on social media because of the supposed abuse he gets on it. He isn't actually on social media so he has no direct experience of that. It can only be what his son tells him about if it bothers you that much ask your son not to mention it any more.
Then you have statements about the mole, exact statement : "There's this nonsense about a mole in the dressing room. Blah blah blah, there is nothing wrong with the spirit here."
It was Bruce who specifically referred to a "source" again an exact statement :
'Unfortunately, he (Sportsmail journalist Craig Hope) has a source in and around the club, which obviously feeds him. That is the most disappointing thing, which we are all looking into to try and find out the culprit.
'The source has to be someone from within.
'Unfortunately, it happens too often. That's the biggest disappointment for us all. We will try our utmost to see who it is.'
He's the most full of shit manager we've ever had, an absolute charlatan, a conman who never fails to take an opportunity to deflect all the while talking down and diminishing the club . Talks about Newcastle United being an impossible job, well resign then . You're actually admitting that you're not up it. Wasn't impossible for Keegan or Robson was it ?
