Sacking Bruce

Status
Not open for further replies.
Sacked a few weeks to late. Just watch the Wigan match back. Looked a beaten man desperately out of ideas. Should have been gone long before that. Moment he started blaming bad luck etc. Roy Keane hit the nail on the head. You make your own luck in life. Its about how you respond to adversity that defines success. Bruce as manager has not got that. No doubt when the going gets tough at Hull will be bemoaning selling Long and if only he didnt have injuries.

Big mistake in hindsight?

I know he's been bitter since and a bit of a kernt,but

We're still playing pretty much a Steve Bruce signings squad.

Best finish for many years.

Brought in some talent for cheap that we then got good money for (sess, bent, gyan,mig, Mcclean)

Had a squad that scored lots of goals when the strikers were in good form, and had some good , albeit overpaid, players in it.

Did we really sack him for a good reason? I know I wanted him out at the end but I honestly can't remember what I had to complain about at the time compared to now!

Are we gonna get one of these every time Hull win a game?

No, still here and still above you lot. Told you about Altidore and now you lot finally get it! All a bit slow up there aren't you :) you are right I did predict you'd go down and never come back, got that wrong and fair play you got it right at the end of the season. But reverted back to normal since though eh? As for the jibe about changing from being Chelsea to supporting City, give yourselves a shake. Ever heard of someone moving versus someone stopping following Chelsea to follow the Tigers, kind of sums up the lack of brain cells up there boys.

Did you pack in supporting Chelsea after we spoilt Mourinho's record?

We had no choice but to sack him, we were heading for relegation.

However the trigger for the demise was the sale of our most valuable players, which I remain convinced was Short's decision.

It made me laugh. To be fair I think Bruce has made some decent signings for hull but his time with us was generally poor.

I am sure you can imagine that for us some of the players he brought in were beyond our wildest dreams. Additionally he has the ability to switch is between 4-4-2, 3-5-2 and even a diamond formation at will. How could he be so bad for you? You've never reproduced a league position like he achieved for you since he left and yet you all slag him off. I don't get it......

Fuck off you tedious, diseased ballbag.

I've called you out several times on this thread and you failed to reply. Now you're above us again you start with your shite. You support a third rate team, which have never won anything of note, ever. Yes, you're having a brief moment in the sun, but it will soon end, and you'll be back to scratching around in the third or fourth tier of English football, which is exactly your level.

And since you're back, let's have one more look at this :-

Do you struggle with reading? Since when does someone desert Chelski for the Tigers? Really, no brain cells. People move, I have kids born in Chelsea & Westminster that could justifiably support Chelsea that are City fans. I'll wind you lot up to the last but we are all northerners, grow up!

Not sure I'd bookmark anything you had to say, you unfortunate weasel. Meanwhile you are below us and likely to stay that way.

No. I'm laughing at the fact we're the only team to beat Chelsea at the bridge under Mourinho. a stat he'd been rightly proud of until we rocked up and spoiled their party. As for Hull i don't care really. Bruce'll do alright for a while before you go back to obscurity. We'll hammer you sooner or later

The posters obviously a lass, so she probably loves doing all that shit. Can't be sure if she's really a Tiger. Probably related to wor Brucie ;)
