Reet, so if the Man U board sold Rooney, Nani, Young, Smalling and Vidic tomorrow and then gave Ferguson £20m to replace them all he couldnt complain because over the years he has spent shit loads on players?



Explain yourself then, rather than making nonsense statements.[/]
Do I really have to?
He achieved a good deal of that simply by signing a contract for a PL club.

What a load of shite. 3rd time in the top 10 in my lifetime, in most SAFC fans lifetime. You cant just ignore Bruces input into that any more than you can ignore Quinn or Short's efforts either.

Bruces respective highest finishes with Wigan and Brum would also be straight into our top 5 of all time too.

How can it be shite.

He started off with a club in it's 3rd PL year with what most claim are our best owner and chairman in their lifetime.
If he couldn't achieve that considering we weren't even in the top division for a good deal of those years, and considering our history, then he should be shot with shit.

If we don't finish higher than 10th this season progress will not be made so how will the not out Bruce supporters, nobs for short, defend the buffoon then?
 
So we are skint then having to sell to buy. God if you dared mention that last year you would have been slaughtered on here. Which poster predicted that last year and was ridiculed?

Dear me, are you 11? Or is it just the mental age you operate at?

So a manager has to improve year on year? Where does it stop? Surely Bruce or our next manager has to win the league within 9 years or lose his job?

Realistically what more could we have expected from Bruce than a 10th place finish within 2 years of his arrival. Do we just expect to finish in the top 6? As you have said above we had only been in the PL for 3 years, we were still not established and it wouldnt have been a shock to anyone had we been relegated.

Ask the apologists I am not the one using "progress" to defend his buffoonery and fuckwittery I want him out now.

I dont think we are skint, we just couldnt continue to invest like we did under Keane, and had to reign it in, especially with wages.

I'm referring to this 3rd best nonsense which is used to big up Bruce.


Should we congratulate him on bettering the 15 and 19 points seasons
Did he do a better job than when Keane got us promoted or when he kept us up that first season
How about when Reid got us promoted with Russell as striker, or even the following season when we got relegated with more points than Keane managed.
How about Stokoe in 73? Was Bruce's achievement greater.
It's all a load of bollocks man. His starting point bears no comparison to plenty of others. The worst of it is that Bruce himself has quoted the very same bollocks
