Sacking Bruce

Not open for further replies.
Bruce nearly ruined the club and somehow has kept his reputation, lets just hope they drop like a stone next year

YOU WILL NEVER EVER BE BIGGER THAN US!!
 
i take it that this is a rant between SAFC and Hull Tigers fans... well Tigers, next season is not broken into yet.... I cant wait to see Brucie's tactic next year:lol::lol::lol:
 
There was a point when I thought were we better off under Bruce.

Now the meth has worn off I realise we did the right thing.
 
He was extremely annoying after he left, talking about us at every opportunity, but he seems to be over us now. He's done a very good job at Hull and good luck to him.

Lets not allow him to be the jigger man figuratively as well as in mass. Let bygones be bygones.

You lot, really? Is your squad that much worse than ours? We will finish 12th/14th and we are in the cup final. The only difference is the manager. Your last season under him was your best for a long time. Ever since you've been a disaster zone. Honestly. I can't f***ing stand Sunderland so I will wind you up forever but seriously, you slag off managers of the calibre of Bruce and O'Neill and you look like even bigger ***** than you usually do. You last finished in a cup final in 73 and have done fuck all since and yet you are a much bigger club than us. But you still slag off people you should be proud to have had. I really mean it, you are going down and never coming back. The vibe at Sunderland is so crap that the Conference is calling you all, laugh all you want but the way you are all behaving you are fucked!

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!

He was a dead man walking at the time.

I'm sure his professional pride wouldn't allow him to admit it, but it must have been a relief for him too.

From what I hear, his stress management technique involves copious quantities of Guinness at the end of the working day.

Apparently, his drinking was ridiculous just before he got the bullet
 
We did sack him at the right time but just out of interest how long is he going to get blamed for the ineptitude of his successors and the board by some of our more "special" fans?

No he was shite. The football was shite and he was a tit.

There are others that have done this and are still held in high esteem by the fans here.
