Sheffield Wednesday have reported Newcastle to the Premier League for their conduct during the appointment of Steve Bruce as their new manager.

Bruce was announced as the Magpies’ new boss last Wednesday, 48 hours after he resigned from his position at the Owls, along with coaches Steve Agnew and Stephen Clemence.

Wednesday insisted some legal issues were still outstanding when Bruce’s appointment was announced and have now registered their discontent at Newcastle’s behaviour with the governing body.

“Following Newcastle United’s announcement on 17 July 2019 of its appointment of former Sheffield Wednesday staff Steve Bruce, Steve Agnew and Stephen Clemence, the club confirms that it has today reported Newcastle United’s conduct to the Premier League,” the Championship club said in a statement.

Bruce was in charge of Wednesday for only 18 games after he began work in February following Jos Luhukay’s sacking.

Wednesday’s statement added: “As the Premier League will now initiate and carry out investigations into the club’s allegations, the club will not be commenting further on this matter whilst such investigations are ongoing.”

The Owls, whose Championship campaign starts in 10 days, have yet to name a successor for the 58-year-old.

In his role he will continue to work closely with Nicky Butt and will report to John Murtough, Head of Football Development.

Butt and Cox to work closely together.

Stop sniggering at the back.

Hudson-Odoi is gonna stay!

[Baddar]

Good for him.

100k a week at 18... alright for some.

Arsenal were 2-0 up against ten-man Real Madrid in the International Champions Cup.

 

They've just lost on penalties. Bale played (and scored) too.

[Kaney]

Typical BBC reporting, cherry picking facts as usual to suit their agenda.

Arsenal were reduced to ten men as well

[Lineker]

Nothing I said was inaccurate!

Tammy Abraham has confirmed he will wear Chelsea's no. 9 shirt this season.

Not that our no. 9 shirt means much these days.

[Colly]

It was always going to be downhill after the heady days of Khalid Boulahrouz.

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

Still reeling from Steve Sidwell tbh.

[stokeriño]

Tammy has already surpassed Falcao's stint with the shirt on account of not costing a million billion pounds to pay him to wear it.

40 million for a Brazilian I hadn't heard of until this week seems like an overpay, no?

Say that now, but wait til he scores 10 goals by christmas and gets sold for 5 million more to Arsenal or Spurs.

Clyne has another "injury" and will miss the rest of 2019.

[Baddar]

It's a friendly and Spurs are being dirty cunts. Joy. 

Edit: Won anyway, fuck off Sissoko.

Troy Parrott played and looked! And he's legitimately Irish so he can't be taken away from us.
