Exciting times Bugs. Hopefully they will be as good for as the sheikh has been for us not only in the club but the surrounding area. Who do you want as manager Bugs?

Rafa - but we won't get him
Be interesting to see who we do get
Also interesting to see numerous City fans on Twitter openly relieved that we are the new club that everyone "hates" and it takes the pressure off them!
It'll take a few years but hopefully we'll be up there at some stage.

Hopefully they do it right and as with City build slowly with a plan for the structure of the club across all levels and areas.
Really looking forward to see how it all develops

Yes, the plan seems almost a carbon copy of City's approach
Keyword is "patience"

Gosh I hope not Nellie
Inexperienced for this sort of challenge - and even if he were successful he'd be off to Liverpool as soon as Klopp resigns.

This is what's being said..... "Newcastle have been linked with former Borussia Dortmund manager Lucien Favre, Steven Gerrard and former Chelsea boss Frank Lampard as potential replacements. Bruce's assistant Graeme Jones could also be a temporary stand-in

That’s just some of the names! We’re also being linked with the likes of Brendan Rogers, Antonio Conte and many others
Bruce is expected to be sacked this week with Jones installed as caretaker before the spurs game
And when it comes to players the media are having a field day making up links with players who are supposedly on our radar!
All nonsense of course as we haven’t even appointed a director of football yet to oversee recruitment!

It will be interesting to see who will eventually be given the position.
