Err let's not forget the majority on here wanted him out. Even after winning promotion back to the PL posters thought we should sack him.
Yes, getting rid of fat **** was the right thing to do. Doing it without having to pay a penny in compensation was a master stroke. What followed was a **** show.
So Bruce’s team bored to death a team who didn’t look like scoring in a brothel. Goalie shoulda been sent off. Fulham will hump Villa.
Never got why... Greatest manager in our history and some still can't see it. I know a lot will put money on Fulham to do it because they play nice football with a great attack, but I will back Bruce to win this 2-0. Experience counts for a lot in finals and Villa have a lot of experienced players.
Perhaps misguided ambition, but at least he showed some ambition. Unlike the ****s in charge at City.
And yet still there will be some that will come on here and deride him .... fat .... £40m .... bought useless forwards ..... Maguire ....... his son ...... completely overlooking the bleeding obvious that he does his job and gets teams promoted. Regularly.
"Elmo has the most crosses in the premier league this season." And? Any player who crosses the ball from just over halfway can have lots of crosses. How many of them led to assists or even opportunities? There was some crap article on the Beeb yesterday about the England squad, using stats. Johnny Crapplayer has made 57 Blocks this season while Billy ****player has only made 34 (isn't this all pointless when Billy only played half the games that Johnny did?).
Which means, as a business, City have had a much more successful season than Boro. The final determines whether City have had a better season than Fulham or Villa and which of them has had a better season than City. Nigel, your job for next season is 21st place or higher off as little money as possible.
And the last line is pretty true tho imp. Millwall and preston on a shoestring, had a far better season than forest and brum and us. Better managed, yes. The table doesn't lie.
Hmmm, interesting one. After we shipped 7 goals away to PNE and Southampton with him in charge I never expected that he would be pivotal in changing Hull City's history for ever. Never ever in my wildest dreams did I think we would win at Spuds, Arsenal etc and go to China. And all done on a fraction of the budget that Brucey had. Emotionally there is no one to match Brownies achievements. But factually and statistically Bruce was more successful. 2 promotions, 1 F A Cup and the **** up in Europe, but Europe none the less. And statistically, Brownie 33.12% cf Bruce 41.29%. My personal favourites were Nobby Horton and Nigel Pearson, followed by Bruce and Brownie in that order.
Hahaha, Thou History is only relatable in passing in as much as from people who were there , then & now , no one still exists today from back then , today.
The standard of the Championship is higher now than in 2008 I think though that does not take away our achievement.
Ha ha. Another set of gormless twats to add to my list of supporters whose heads are firmly planted between their buttocks. Roll Of Head Up Buttocks Honour (also known as 'The Deluded Twats) in no particular order : Everton Newcastle United West Ham Wolves Aston Villa Silly ****s from Bellend Road. THE biggest club on the planet of Hullsborough Sunderland Real Madrid I quite like Burnley, little town, sensible successful club, who have named a pub after their manager. Class. I quite like Huddersfield. First team to win the league three times, yet they do not ****ing go on and on and on and on and on about it. And in staying up in the Premier League cancelled their plane (FFS) home to go on the piss in London. Class. ALLAMS OUT !!!
Brownys budget was ridiculous for that time. It's why we got in the mess we were in, forty million in debt. All on high wages for bang average players.
