You're right good, read and he comes across really well in it, and you can tell he think a lot of it and Quinn, but Bruce in particular.

It was also interesting to hear a player speak about the players dissapointment and bewilderment at Bent leaving for the 1st time.

It's rpetty clear from that that they are also as bewildered as us as to why he would join Aston Villa from Sunderland right now.

People forget that footballers are human beings aswell.

he speaks very well and comes across as quite articulate which is quite surprising

player of the year upto now for me, who'd have thought that at the start of the season

think we all know why b£nt went to villa, he knows it but just doesn't want to say it

He said: “There were a few nerves before I played my first game. When I flew out to Portugal after signing the fans were great at the airport, but when I was out there, there were a few fans who were a bit funny with me.

“There were a few comments from the stands in pre-season and going into the first game against Birmingham I was braced for a mixed reception.

“I thought there might be a few jeers and a few people who were unhappy, but there was nothing but support and I was delighted with that.

Some right wankers support our club mind.

Have a word with yourself man. He was an exmag with a terrible reputation from when he was there.

Woul I have given him stick no, but the backing he has had is a testament to how good our fans are, you get idiots right across society its nothing to do with just our fans.

So you agree that some of our fans are idiots then?

True. Though to be fair, Bramble has been accepted by the fans, and it was pefectly possible that it might have gone differently. Some good performances early on helped mind, as they always do.

This piece does remind me that the fans do have a significant influence on how players perform. Some knackers would do well to remember this on a Saturday afternoon instead of slating every bad pass.
