But you hadn't gone OTT, you made some fair points I thought.

I couldn't believe it when you went crawling to him TBH, I've no idea why you allow such a loser to totally dominate your board
Every time he says, "Good luck lads, be careful out there," to people actually going to matches it makes me cringe <doh>

He was posting on the Sunderland board during the derby ffs having made no attempt to go to the match.

I didn't crawl mate, it was an apology for making a twat of myself. I hardly ever post on our board, and not a great deal on here now.
 
Or you know, I left my house and laptop, some people do that sometimes you know. <laugh>

Where were you in the league when he left?

Aye, I've just got back myself <ok>

We were 16th and on 11 points at the turn of December. It was more than just the league position though, he'd just sold some top premiership players only to spend 28 million on a bag of players who we not worth a fraction of the price. You won't understand because your record transfer record is 5.5m. You'd be livid if he spent 8 million on connor wickham. Don't let the man loose ever with an open checkbook

So you were 16th, I assume nowadays, since you got rid of Bruce, you're big Premier League high-flyers and nowhere near the drop zone?
 
How is that relevant to the fact he deserved the sack? Were we supposed to see the future? Your points are loose and irrelevant mate.

<laugh>

You paint a picture that Bruce did a crap job and you're grateful he's gone. However, you finished 10th under him and even at the point in which he got sacked (despite losing both strikers due to their demands to move to bigger clubs/financial gain) you were 16th, a significantly better league position than the one you currently find yourselves in. Bruce, meanwhile, finds himself back in 10th.

I've gone through this, with you personally. <doh>

Who's made out he's a terrible manager like? He did very well for us at first. but then he lost the plot in the 2011-12 season, he and quinn handed out large contracts on substandard players we still can't get rid of. He paid 14m for Wickham and Ji, he paid 6m for JoS and Wes Brown, he fielded no strikers in a cup game, he managed to pick up only 11 points in the first half of the season. He was alway getting the sack after those mistakes, all packed into 6 months. He pressed the self destruct button on his own Sunderland career and blamed the fans for it. Mate, if that doesn't open him up to humorous ridicule I don't know what does especially as he won't let it drop. I take it you still Laugh at Phil Brown? Cause I would and do.

Seriously mate, we're going round in circles, you should give your head a shake. As for him finishing 10th with us, I remember well thank you, I don't need a history lesson on my own club for a Hull fan who can't remember a conversation we had earlier on the same thread. <laugh>

You sir have just been served. Don't tell me you want seconds?
 
Harper.

Canny lad who should be congratulated for his testimonial fundraiser.

However, as a serious sporting figure he ranks somewhere between Eddie the eagle Edwards and Mr Blobby. His word or opinion carries no clout as he is an unambitious nobody with **** all of a career to discuss anyway.
 
It's up to you if you choose to defend him on this mate, but you'll be on a loser because Bruce will **** you up and keep going on about Sunderland at every chance.

His answer, as you really know, should have been,

"Sunderland are in the distant past and I'm proud to be the manager of Hull ........... I'm preparing for an important game and would like to talk about the match."

Not difficult is it?

Yep fair point.
 
I simply meant is Steve bruce playing Danny graham today, as a joke and he will probably score as well. And what's this with the bickering against our own supporters it is supposed to be a football forum.

I apologise if you took it that way mate, it was supposed to be a bit of fun.

I like seeing your posts and didn't mean any offence, to be fair I get called much worse on a daily basis.

Sorry, once again.

I'm only pulling your leg aswel mate, if we had an end of year poll on most bizzare poster you'd win it by a mile, but your quite right, your our poster
