Chansiri's over valuation of Wednesday members of staff has fucked them over yet again and rather than getting compensation Bruce has simply resigned.

Not sure where it'll end up, can imagine there'll be some legal proceedings that will follow but he must've been advised by somebody that this is a better way of doing it.

It's not an over valuation, it's the release clause within his contract, one Bruce agreed to and signed.

He can be put on Gardening leave, Bruce has broken his contract, Ashley is a reprehensible c***.

Contract and Employment laws are in our favour.

Bruce has form for this, did it at Palace

So what can happen from now then? The reports are suggesting he's resigned, can't Chansiri reject his resignation?

Yep, and request an injunction to prevent him from working for a certain period.

Bruce to be hounded out of Newcastle by Christmas. Greedy c*** had a nice job at Wednesday and he's thrown it all away for a job where he'll be dispeised by everyone the minute he walks through the door.

The bloke is an idiot. Nothing good will come of going there. Should have stayed at Wednesday and taken them into the play offs.

Strangely it appears his basic salary will be less than it is now but gets a bonus if certain performance objectives are met.

He doesn’t need the money, it’s his boyhood club and it’ll probably be his last chance to manage a big club. He’d be an idiot to pass up the opportunity.

Agreed. Was typing out a reply to Mark saying that if he was at Bristol City and Wolves in the Premier League came calling I’m sure he’d do all he could to leave.

If you love the club why add to its demise . Surely Bruce is anti Ashley too?

The only thing Steve Bruce is thinking of is leading the club he loves to success. I’m sure if it was another club of similar stature in a similar situation he wouldn’t be bothered.

Also if I was a Wednesday fan I wouldn’t care one little bit. Apart from the annoyance of it happening so close to the new season. The fact he delayed taking over the club to watch the fucking cricket would suggest to me he was never fully invested in the club in the first place.

On another note I’m hoping Wednesday go for one of the run of the mill options and don’t come sniffing round Stendel, and they’d be stupid not to at least enquire imvho.

Whilst I agree he managed Sunderland so he can't be that much of a fan. Would you manage Rovers?

If Bristol Rovers approached me tomorrow and offered me a contract in line with what football managers at L1 level earn then I’d ask where do I sign mate.

If I wanted to I could purposely balls things up there, get them cut adrift the face the sack and have a juicy payoff.

If you're a manager of Steve Bruce's calibre you'll always get job offers though. Just me but I'd rather manage anywhere else than West Brom. Also as Villa Loyal says if he really is a Newcastle fan he must hate Mike Ashley?

I'd rather manage any other FL club than Rovers as well but if I was given 3 grand a week to manage them I'd do it.

He may well do, but he'll also be aware the club's been up for sale for years. It might break luckily for him in that a takeover happens whilst he's there and if they're prepared to give him a chance it's a dream situation for him really. If it doesn't work out I'm sure he won't care, another big payoff and he can go back to watching cricket.

Compo paid in full apparently this morning, £4m for Bruce, we are asking for extra for the assistants.

What was the need to resign then? Just put himself in a bad light by doing so.

I'd do it for nothing but multiple relegation's and financial mismanagement would be a given! ;)

He'd have been my first choice no doubt, I'd be happy with Aitor Karanka, think the squad we currently have would work well for his style of albeit boring football.

Good shout that, far more realistic than CH.
