    What hacks me off and I've said it before are the love Brucers who say best manager in our history. He has achieved the most in our history with money that others never had and history is just that, he WAS great for the club. I was never Brownies biggest fan but he kept us up on no money and gave me my best two saturdays in the premiership. If you want to live in the past and not the present then you're a Bruce lover, if you're in the present you want him out and not at the end of the season.

    In answer to the original question my answer is no. The supporters appeared to stick with, & support Jose, even when the going got tough.

    Their rise was rather impressive, it made pretty big headlines in France. Surprised more people weren't aware of it. In fact I'm pretty sure this is the first season that they're above their rivals AC Ajaccio in a higher league for the first time ever.

    It's not a **** argument to ask who people think will replace SB - nor to ask for realistic names - obviously I was joking about Jose and LVG. Those who say Bruce out need to say who comes in.

    If we got someone like that in and didn't win the first five games people on here would be coming out with crap like '**** foreign manager, doesn't know the great English game' etc.

    I think this season should be his last with us. I am ok with him finishing the season so long as we do not drop out of the top 6.

    No they don't. The argument is whether a change is needed or not. Either of the Nigels would be excellent but that isn't the point while Bruce is here.

    Id go for Mick McCarthy from Ipswich done a great job with them on limited funds and has bags of experience and respect within the game , lots of top contacts

    Yes they do. As I have said elsewhere Hull City have sacked managers far too often in the past with no idea as to who should come in. The result has always been a disaster. I'm okay with people having the opinion that SB should go, but to get rid with no one in mind would be detrimental to us as a club. So let's hear the realistic alternatives. Square Head is not a realistic alternative while Allam is still at the club so all we've got so far is Nigel Adkins. Anyone else?

    Neither are realistic targets, but Ioswich are playing better football than us and Leicester's football last season was excellent, it relegated us.

    Let's cut the c**p we were rubbish today and have being for a while. Unfortunately, quality is better than effort and at the moment we have neither!!

    Couldn't agree less tbh, Ipswich play ****ing dire football and fair enough with Pearson but last season was a flash in the pan for him, the style of football we played while he was here was by far the biggest complaint about him.

    I'd argue we kept Leicester up rather than they relegated us.
