TRon Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 He's never going to stop milking that 12th and 13th finish, one season relied on defenders scoring goals in the last minute, the other a purple patch of goals from a loanee. He could easily have relegated us in either one the jammy fat bastard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could easily have relegated us in either one the jammy fat bastard. We were never going to go down in 2019-20 tbf. We were safe after beating Southampton away, the last game before COVID, put us on 35 points with 9 or 10 games left. Bruce however did live off of defenders scoring goals and Benitez' defensive tendencies not wearing off. We were 17th when we kicked off the last game of last season. Every result needed to go our way to finish 13th, the highest possible finish at kick off, did. Such a false position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a few years they might think finishing 12th and 13th mightn't have been so bad after all. "Now it's time to take West Brom forward. "I think Newcastle will stay up. Nothing has changed, though they've added a fair few to their squad. I wish them the best of luck." Cannot wait to watch that 12th and 13th sentence age like milk.

Even his promotions from the Championship were a result of finishing 2nd or playoffs. Hasn’t won a single thing, unless you count his solitary PL Manager of the Month award. Like you said Birmingham was through the play-offs where they finished in the same posistion as they did the previous season (with less points and via a penalty shoot-out). He also relegated the two clubs he got promoted and failed to achieve that at Villa, Huddersfield, Sheffield United, Sheffield Wed and Palace but nevermind. Just read "He had a 27.4% win percentage from 84 league games at Newcastle, the ninth best compared to previous Newcastle managers who had been in charge of at least 20 matches in the Premier League era" - How many do they think we've had that fall into that category? I've only counted 10 including Bruce. Edited February 5, 2022 by Wolfcastle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we go down it'll be largely his fault and I consider that quite bad as it happens Bruce. C*nting c*ntly c**t of a c**t that he is.

The narrative up here was that he was hamstrung with a squad of players that had negative defensive football drilled into them by the previous manager, and he struggled (for 2.5 years) to get them to play on the 'front foot'. He's probably glad he was overlooked for the Everton job for the same reason. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danh1 Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Wonder if when he leaves after fucking another club up, whether WBA fans become just the second fanbase of all his former clubs to have fond memories of him, or whether they’ll be like everyone else and despise the useless cunt?
