but if that stability means sliding into div 3 you don't need it do you? Somewhere along the line, the line has to be drawn for self preservation's sake, and Dr Tony will do it.
agreed Clampy but if the current malaise carries on for another half dozen games he's toast

Somewhere along the line, the line has to be drawn for self preservation's sake, and Dr Tony will do it.Of course that is a possibility but it not likely. Half a dozen teams below us in the table have all got to pick up more points than us over the remainder of the season for us to be in the bottom 3. While one or two might show an improvement the chances of all of them doing it are slim.I am not suggesting this is a good place to be but as it stands relegation is not a major concern and Bruce should be given the opportunity to do what his record suggests he is good at.

The fact he is managing in the Championship is frankly staggering. Newcastle are incredibly lucky to have him and I doubt the Championship will see a manager of his caliber again in decades.He really is not a good comparison to make. He is an anomaly in this league.
