Back to writing best selling novels or a bio? Imagine the nonsense if he did do a bio

[Holloway]

I wonder if there are any daft cunts left who'll think this fraudulent mess might be able to do a job for them. And the abuse and mockery that comes his way, massive lack of awareness coupled with the skin of a rhino

From the Blackpool forum:

 

That first half was the most shambolic 45 mins in my 40+ following the pool.

Yes we've been battered or pathetic but to start with three at the back and they switch positions,CJ left then go right,Bowler right to number 10, Coulson on his own down the left,no right back I've never seen anything like it.

** pathetic, nobody had a clue. It waa unbelievable, I can't actually describe what was going on...

It was unbelievable to see the most expensive coaching team in our history come up with that.

The keeper had to fake his hammy going to change the shape after 16 minutes.

It was utter nonsense mate

 

 

It just showed how attention to detail or plan there has been.

3 formation changes by 46 minutes.

3 centre backs changing positions after 15 mins.

They made it up as they went along.

 

 

 

And one more for luck

 

Thankfully something that should never have been allowed to have become a thing is finally over.

Destroyed our own season already so we just have to see what the next bright idea is now. Couldn’t run a bath this lot.

 

 

 

We tried to warn you Blackpool!!!

[Groundhog63]

Steve Barnes arrived at UEFA HQ with his team. Not his football team, his backroom detective boys Steve, Steve, Stephen, Steve, Steph and Stephen.

 

"Rigghhhht lads and Steph the token lass. We're meeting these lot cos they reckon there's a crack squad of fraudsters that's been taking the piss out of clerb owners for decades. Pretending they know owt about football and scamming millions of quid. I mean, it's not cricket, is it? Anyways I reckon they want us on the case. Steph gan get the bacon on"

 

"Gaffer, I've just gorra text off of Alex. He's says people are saying it's us"

I believe there is a hell and what you hear is just his post match interviews from his career on a loop for infinity.

titbits from the West Brom forum

Squid: "Oh but he's a decent man" NO! An absolute thief. Stole a living while he was with us.

BaggieSloth: It still makes me Loff knowing he feels we didn’t give him enough time

Bob Fossil: another pay-off coming, kerching

s4w Baggie: … surely another English club won’t fall for his charlatan ways

We had to hold off until he was out of contract. Now the pathway is clear it looks like we can finally put this to bed and announce our new DOF. Welcome back.

We tried warning them. But no, we were deluded and unappreciative. We knew this melted boil was an incompetent snake oil salesman from day one, some fanbases need to learn the hard way. It took Blackpool longer than I thought.

 

I wonder which desperate, shoddily run mess of a club will fall for his BS next

[13and3Dozen]

Surely to God he's done now. Anyone else would retire with a tiny bit of dignity still left. Can't see any club touching him now 

 

But we've said this before

Scottish football yet. He's already put his letter into Rangers and he's hinted before he fancies a crack at international management " well me mam was irish". People have misunderstood Bruce for years. Everyone thought he was saying "I'm a winner" but in actual fact it was "I'm a winnet" so he'll stick around for a a good while yet.

Brilliant man

[GeordieDazzler]

I could see him at Rangers  
 

He’ll take his pay off from Blackpool and be jetting off to watch the Ashes like last time. Plan executed to perfection yet again. 

[Heron]

He just needs to fuck off to his nearest working mens club and spend the rest of his days eating shit, drinking shit and talking shit instead of robbing fans of their footballing 2 hours each weekend.

Roll on the extra phase of the Bruce cycle. The massive turn around after he's gone.

Blackpool worth a flutter for the playoffs for any gamblers out there.

Villa, ourselves and West Brom after getting rid of him in 12th, 19th and 22nd place alternately went on to get promoted via the playoffs, finish 11th with European quali form, miss out on the playoffs by 3points after showing automatic promotion form

 

 

[Optimistic Nut]

Sky saying Russell Martin sacked. 

[Moose]

Bruce at Rangers would be comedy gold, a manager and fanbase still living in the 90's.

 

It'll never happen though, as greedy as he is, I doubt he'd take that job for all of King Midas' gold, the Ibrox crowd turns into a baying horde of Uruk Hai when they drop points, he's far too thin skinned to handle Glasgow football. He was crying to the media about how harsh we were, I'd love to see how he'd handle all the abuse Russell Martin has just gone through.
