This is his third midlands club. Isn't there the same sort of rivalry you'd get on Merseyside or here when you keep dodging between local rivals?

Collage Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) Wolves are out of his league obviously, but their fans should still be afraid, he’ll want to do the Midlands quadruple before he retires.

I thought we were done with this shit FFS! I think we've found abuse is only horrid if it's made-up and delivered online. Any remarks made towards Steve Bruce should have been spray painted on the walls of his home and/or club training ground or stadium, which would have made them legitimate because it's what Everton fans regularly get away with. He may have been born a winner but he's lived his life since then as a loser, his managerial record proves that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 So what's the score with that £8m Bruce walked away with from his failure with us. Since he's back in a job after only 3 months, does that mean his payout should be reduced? As far as I know, Poch's payout from Spurs was reduced when he took another job and surely Bruce needs to be out of work for the full term of his Newcastle contract to claim dole money?

Plus we know Ashley connived with Bruce to stitch up the incoming owners with that rolling contract, so he wouldn't have written in the clause that Bruce could only claim his lotto win if he took on another job.

I'm not going to subject myself to the interview but that certainly reads like the bitter goblin he is. 12th and 13th may not be so bad after all? As long as you didn't destroy the club beyond repair we won't be 'aiming' anywhere near 12th and 13th from next season you utter drip. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Fucking hate the abuse line. In 2019-20 when fans were in the ground it was never hostile towards Bruce. In 2020-21 fans weren't in the ground and Bruce isn't on social media, so the only 'abuse' Bruce got was what his bitter cunt of a son selectively told him. This season the crowd turned at Southampton (h). Even then it was just 'we want Brucie out'. Hardly vitriolic. Such a myth that'll be perpetuated to the nth degree.

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...

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...

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...
