The fans with brains know what’s coming, I know a few. The majority of football fans, regardless of club, are thick as fuck.

Agnew and Clemence back on the gravy train too along with the son of Steve.

 

Three Steve’s, Two Bruce’s. Poor WBA. 

 

Andy Carroll up top. 4-4-Fucking 2.

He's absolutely finished in the top flight but there might be one last decent gig for him in the championship and this is probably going to be it. I think he'll enjoy a honeymoon period of sorts before the inevitable kicks in and he starts blaming previous managers and press for poor results.

They don’t play until Sheff Utd on the 9th, the players have got six days (two training days) to get used to his methods.

 

Didn’t realise they are where they are, highly likely they’ll end up outside the playoffs now :lol: 


Can’t wait to watch it all unfold.

 

- How many minutes into his first press conference will he mention Rafa?

- He’ll be blaming the previous manager’s defensive football.

- Players in his first match saying “I don’t know what to do” as Sheff Utd hoy in the third goal.

- An injury crisis awaits.

- A mole to appear in the club to create tensions with the local media.

- Alex wheeled out to defend him on TalkSport.

- Telling them he can’t be judged after two seasons as he can’t “turn it around overnight”.

- Mr Sheen sales will rise in Birmingham ready to dust themselves down.

- Sleeves being rolled up everywhere.

 

:fwap:

He’s called a promotion specialist, when was the last time he got any club promoted?

 

The media like to tell you it’s four promotions, but that’s actually only with two clubs. They forget to mention the bit where he gets relegated in between :lol: 

 

Oh, and to answer your question, 2016. Since then he ruined the most expensively assembled Aston Villa side in the Championship (with £100m Grealish) and kept them 14th.

They did this with Pardew as well. Oh those deluded ungrateful Geordie’s don’t know what they’re talking about. They’ll soon realise his many, many faults

My absolute favourite posts I saw on that thread were one poster saying “Since he left Birmingham, they’ve never recovered” another one chirped in with “Yep, same with Sunderland” and they never realised there’s a common denominator, Bruce.

 

They were actually trying to use it as a positive, that they’ve struggled after losing him because he was so good for them :lol: 

 

Birmingham, Sunderland, Hull, Wigan - all clubs managed by Bruce and failed to recover since. The only two who have are Villa and (hopefully) us, after walking into huge pots of money.

And tried to give Boro £10m & Grealish for Jordan Rhodes.
 

He’s got an eye for a player like. Elmo must be buzzing.

Alex now has a "job" so think he'll refrain from getting into twitter or talksport debates

It’s obvious to those who have had to watch this man closely that’s he’s given up on football. His limited days in training. His haste to holiday when he should be planning. His choice of players to keep close for support. 
Someone should prime the WBA supporters to prep for brucie bingo (rurl sleeves, go again, yu now). Throw in the mandatory Injury crisis, last manager blame, toxic fan base causing mass hysteria. 


The poor bastards!

Not sure who that reflects more poorly on - Bruce or whoever the hell at Boro rejected it.

 

Wonder how long it is until he reveals he's a boyhood fan and his parents would be proud as punch for him to have secured his dream job at West Brom.
