Honest assessment 4/10. He was adequate, but nothing special! You began the season which much higher expectations than us but ended it achieving nothing more (if even a little less than us). Both clubs (and their respective managers) have a massive opportunity next season! I think there's a little more pressure on Bruce like. He's had more time and already had a chance to build his own side...Having said that, without a reasonable improvement from both teams and you'd be right to ask questions of them!
nice one a reasonable lad come back anytime mate, is Partrige buying players from Bethlehem in the hope, just the monica baffels me, is it all geordies are jews
he has had to sell to buy, sick of this bloody argument tbh, and its usually mags that bring it up, he has spent 65 million in 2 years, he has recouped 55 million in 2 years, hence he has spent 10 million.
He has to go! OR give him ã50M this close season!!!!!!!!!!!! Get rid. He cannot do it. Brave attempt but severely lacking. Please get rid.
My point is he's spent 65m in 2 seasons and you are still under us. We have spent something like 15m.
ok. so we have spent 10m. where are we? lower and lower. Brucw is crap. Get shot. But I - like others - know its more than ã10m in effect. You sayin the team we have is better that when we first came up? We are poor. Am I the only one who can see this? Fed up with the Bruce is the answer party. He is not.
and i have already touched on this previiously, you still have the nucleus of the squad that went down, Harper/Colo/Guitierez (sp)/ Nolan/Barton and you had a bloody good CF as well, and probably a few other players, you stormed the championship, and didnt really need to buy as you already had the experience in the spine of your team. Bruce inherited Keanes team, which had just scraped relegation 2 years running, and most were bought for us to get out of the Championship, not to move us up the Premiership. Cattermole or Whitehead no contest really Bent or Murphy Gyan or Healy/Jones Bramble or Collins we have a much better team than we did when Keane was in charge, and Keane payed over the odds for most, but Bruce got better prices for them when he sold them. @commachio yeah i know, its just something that gets right on my tits lol (and its a good debate as well even though no one ever bloody listens (well not many lol))
No more than 4 out of 10. Crap cup runs Crap second half of the season Crap performances against mags, one of which has scarred me for life Crap training programmes resulting in a ludicrous amount of injuries Crap judgement in terms of loans, sales and signings Questionable tactics BUT...... Great first half of the season Best performance I've seen in many a year against Chelsea Temporarily raising expectations
