I think everyone should make a point of bringing up Jamal Khashoggi every time Newcastle plays or is linked with a player or is mentioned on social media. Sportswashing should be resisted.
Bruce wouldn’t get a payoff if he walked
He stays until sacked, keeps his mouth shut and he gets a massive payoff. Plus would you want to cross them?
“Steve Bruce was last seen in the Saudi Embassy in London”
Tbf as much as I loved Bruce the footballer for us, he’s screwed over so many clubs as manager this is hardly something to sympathise with him over.
They are 2nd bottom in the league. That is down to Bruce. He should be fired.
Newcastle fans have been calling for his head for quite a while. They have the right regime running the club now to make that a reality.
I would say that Bruce has been promised a huge payoff by the House of Saudi when he is eventually sacked which will be when the new man becomes available. Meanwhile in return he is probably been asked to carry on despite the humiliation he is getting. Its a lack of self dignity and respect on a Harry Bassett scale that Bruce is prepared to shoulder. He's a very wealthy man already and frankly, doesn't need this. I hope the extra cash is worth it for the humiliation to his wife and kids. This job has made him morally bankrupt. He should just walk.

They never wanted him in the first place. He's been on a hiding for nothing from day 1.
I read he gets £8m if he's sacked? Fack dignity in this scenario, he's not likely to land a job at as big a club after this either.
everyone's 2nd fav club in the 90s are now most ppl's 2nd most hated club in the 2020s
What else are they supposed to say when asked about Bruce's future?

Thats less respectful than what they did say.
I get the 'He should walk' sentiment but why should he. He'd miss out on a pay out which could see him set for the rest of his life with absolutely no worries.
Perhaps Ole will give him a ring once it happens...

----------------------------------------------------------------------
He's already set up for the rest of his life. Its just even more money.
Bruce walked out on other clubs when he got a better offer and piiiisssed off those fans and at Newcastle has played some of the worst football ever. The guy is a mercenary and I’m sure many a football fan is laughing their asses off at him being at the pointy end of a clubs decision.

'We are actively looking at solutions to help us be a cut above. The manager will stay in place for his 1000th game. We haven't made an incisive decision yet so the manager can go out on a limb against Spurs. But we will be dissecting everything and heads may yet roll.'
They think they are been kind giving Bruce his 1000th game.
If he wasn't on 999 I'm sure the axe would have fallen this week

I know he's pretty well off already but he may have some plans in place that need that money.
As Robb has said above Bruce has moved to better himself in the past so he'll be enough of a pro to know this is going to happen at Newcastle to him too. Yes, I think he'd get enormous brownie points if he walked because he didn't believe in their regime etc but that would just smack of sour grapes.
