Fine, Newcastle land somewhere between...18th and 20th.

I think Norwich stay up for a season or two before yoyoing their way back down. I hope they stay longer, though.

The only reason I wouldn't auto-pick Norwich to go right back down is because Brighton were absolutely abysmal last season and haven't really improved.

Re: The Sack Race aka Official Management Carousel Thread

In the most Mike Ashley way possible, Newcastle have officially named former Sunderland manager Steve Bruce as their manager, and Sheffield Wednesday are not satisfied with the terms of Bruce's exit. Sheffield Wednesday are going to pursue legal action. Sky also reporting that Bruce was Newcastle's 11th-choice manager.

Re: The Sack Race aka Official Management Carousel Thread

I’m caught in between unadulterated schadenfreude and feeling terrible for their fans.

Re: The Sack Race aka Official Management Carousel Thread

Is Ashley the worst owner in any sport in the world?

Long-term owner? Yes. The owners that lied about finances and made clubs go insolvent might be worse overall though.

Re: The Sack Race aka Official Management Carousel Thread

Ashley did keep them afloat when they were in serious trouble, but everything else he’s done since then seems to suggest that he actually hates the club he owns.

The Oystons and Bolton’s owners are definitely up there

Re: The Sack Race aka Official Management Carousel Thread

That is true. At least Newcastle's bills get paid. So far...

Re: The Sack Race aka Official Management Carousel Thread

Hull had/has some terrible ownership too IIRC

Re: The Sack Race aka Official Management Carousel Thread

Villa almost got it with Xia, thankfully their board now is significantly better.

What I don't get is that Ashley said he'll step aside once Newcastle win something. At what point does he not look in the mirror and realize he is the problem?

I mean, Steve Bruce? That's the best you can do for a historically big team in one of the top leagues in the world?

Sheesh.
