Dan Gleebals Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 (edited) Only job in the world you get paid your full contract for being totally shite. Its not right but it is what it is. Imagine signing a multi million contract knowing you will get paid if you fail!! Meet Steve Bruce. Epic failure on just about every managerial level.

Ben Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Definitely the worst manager I've seen in my time, the way he protected Ashley at every turn really got me. It paid off for him though after he made a deal last summer to get £8 million if he got sacked when Ashley knew fine well he wouldn't be the one paying it. Parasite.
