Delivered some of the worst football to the SOL, playing staff wasn't much better. Major signings being an indifferent Johnson, and a much injured fletcher. Not to mention Danny graham. Di canio: the only revolution he created was a formular to be relegated. Too many signings, too many crazy actions. Major signings, giacc, has made zero difference to season, and altidore, I don't need to say anymore about him. Poyet: came at a difficult time and nearly delivered a major trophy. But if he takes us down, he will have failed in his objective. Major signings albeit low budget ones: Bridcutt, wrong time to bed him in to premier league, looks out of his depth at the moment. Scocco, same as Bridcutt, but also low on fitness. My point is since Bruce, various managements have assembled a pretty dire team. And we've slowly got to the point where relegation is virtually inevetable. Looking back I believe he's the best manager we've had at the club since Reid's years, and we were wrong to dismiss him without a better replacement lined up. The days of a world class Gyan and the goal machine Bent are so far behind us now, and Bruce brought them here. So criticise him all we like. But this year hull will stay up and we will probably go down. Hull have the better team and we have a team that is full of failure. Before people say we still have Bruce's bad signings that still play, yes we do, but 3 managers have bad the chance to remove them, and none have.Sorry to say it lads. Bruce has had the last laugh. KTF.
I saw this yesterday and thought, kinell a moment of brevity from a Sunderland fan. But then you read through the comments and you realise that the majority of Sunderland not606ers all see Bruce as the architect of their downfall...one of em even compared him to Adolf Hitler. You can tell they all know they're down, the post-season revisionism has begun with 8 matches still left to play.
I found this extremely amusing off their board. "Id offer Graham plus a million for Jordan Rhodes. Failing that a straight swap for Wickham." & to further enhance his point he repeats his wish on another thread. "Ive just said on another thread id offer Graham plus cash for Rhodes. Failling that id offer a swap for Wickham" It appears he's quite proud of his delusional pipe dreams.
Danny Graham plus half a pound of strawberry gobstoppers and a bunch of grapes might get you Rowan Vine..
