Ian Garmston‏@IanGarmston In the last hour Steve Bruce has agreed to be our manager on a three and a half year deal and will be unveiled on Friday! #hcafc
I don't think he left Birmingham on very good terms, but if Swansea go for Martinez, he might yet end up back at Wigan.
I'd much rather he kept the veil on to be fair. It can't be a pretty site under there. Why would they need to wait until Friday if they're leaking it now?
anyone else get the feeling bruce is keeping us as a last option at getting back into management? the first delay was martinez to liverpool.. then the villa job, norwich etc... now birmingham. something doesnt feel right. why has it leaked out that we've offered him the job... that instantly tells us that he's asked for time to think about it... otherwise the headlines would be "Bruce confirmed as new City manager!" doesnt really fill you with hope..
Seems to me like Martinez is staying at Wigan. Why turn down Liverpool and Villa (if he did turn them down) and then make something of a sidewards move to Swansea.

P.s thought id get the thread out there first as I haven't got the hang of embedding individual tweets yet, sure someone else can do that on the thread for me!
You know the feeling that posters like Juleskaren (just as an example, not to have a go) have about the Allams and the instinctive feeling that they elude to in their posts, mistrust and real heart felt concerns. Well I am getting this about the OSC! I intended to join them before the season started, in fact I have even considered forming a branch down here. But I have too say that I am having second thoughts. Just lately too many threads have had OSC input, and now the latest release from their media blokey, worries me. Why? Well posts on here and a quick look at the OSC Cott Facebook page leaves me in no doubt that they do not get on with the Allams. So why would they get insider info? Too much spin for me far too much. I would hazard a guess that more than half of what has been said in a negative light against the Allams has its roots firmly in the OSC. Well established contributers have links with the OSC and now the very topic that every wants to be in the know about, comes from the OSC. This just does not add up for me. I think that there is a very supple game being played out across the forums and we are all part of it. I do not even like the thought of not trusting the OSC, but the waters have well and truly being muddied for me now.
My 2nd choice behind Mad Mick but still not bad considering whats realistically available to us.Still wont believe it till the ink dried.He can only leave for a prem club if were flying next season by the way,and may consider us a better option than the likes of Wigan by then anyway.
