I wish the twat would just get another job so I dont have to listen to him every week, on every available medium with his 'old pals act' buddies, telling the world how we are all to blame for his failings. At least if he were at another club he would shut the **** up about us once and for all.
You dont have to listen to him, he is making money and being invited on and he said absolutely nothing wrong, I enjoyed the show.
Daily papers, MotD, Football focus; Sunday supplement; live TV games etc....etc. Save for living the life of a monk and getting rid of all media outlets from my home, I cant avoid seeing his mush all over the gaff, telling a handful of lies, half truths and make believe fairy tales. If he gets another job, at least he will focus on that and not SAFC and so will the media darlings that lick his arse ever week. Then and only then will I be happy not to feel the need to moan on about the ****er.
See Cest, there you go again with your wild claims, telling his lies, please tell me what lies and see if you can manage it without your usual tirade of abuse. If you buy a TV like mine it has a mute button so you don't need to listen, never seen him on Sunday Supplement, he was on today's goals on Sunday and spoke well, in fact took the reported lies on and dismissed them, or was that a lie.
I have read with my own eyes and heard with my own ears his excuse making bag of ****e over recent weeks concerning why he was sacked at Sunderland. That he has now had to come out and admit he was sacked because his record was shockingly poor is due to it being factual and obviously someone has had a word in his shell like to tell his just that. Your defence of a man you'd still happily have here as a manager, even if we would have been in the relegation shake up right now, is admirable but please don't fall in to the trap of changing facts to suit your argument against me once again. For weeks Bruce has delivered his lies and crap about his assertion he was fired because he was a Geordie. He wasn't. This became an issue only after he had presided over the 6th worst record as a sunderland manager eventually tried all bu the most stubborn opinions on the terraces. Even the savage abuse he received at the end of his tenure in those final few days at the Wigan game and before you take the high and mighty stance you usually do I wasn't one of them, was from a very small section of a 35,000 crowd. If he had come out in the first place and just said something like "look, my record wasn't good enough and 2.5 years and 5 transfer windows more than ample time to be better than relegation strugglers year on year but I just wish I had had more time to try and turn it round", no body would have battered an eye lid. He had no long term planning and bought and sold nealry a team a transfer window. Did he admit this was pathetic today? Di he say it was madness to allow 2 top class strikers to leave after 12 months with no contingency plan? Did he praise the SAFC fans for sticking with him after the 5-1 derby humiliation? Thought not. That it has taken him nearly 5 months to come out and say he made mistakes doesn't make him honourable in my eyes, it makes him look like the utter prat he is and is maybe the main reason no other chairman (including a totally knackered Wolves) don't want him either.
Then you are spot on Cest, BTW, what newspaper did you see him in saying these things, I missed them so would love to have a read.
I'm glad to see you see Bruces words this way too. BTW - reading much of your boring daily ramblings, I'm not alone in posting utter tripe on a regular basis am I?
That's our cest, when all else fails resort to insults, don't read my ramblings, I don't mind, honest. All I ask for is proof, where did you read Bruce saying he was sacked for being a Geordie, or read it, I have seen none of it.
when did I insult you Cest, I question your facts and ask for proof and I'm not crying or saying I'm hard done by, just saying dont read what you dont like, now about these quotes you read? do you have any?
So you dont think that saying I post utter tripe and basically lie isn't an insult? Must be a Coxhoe thing.
This is the famous report often quoted, read it and tell me where Bruce says he was sacked for being a Geordie Steve Bruce: Sunderland fans' hatred drove me out(Quote from reporter not Bruce) by John Gibson, Evening ChronicleApr 5 2012Comments (30) Recommend (11) inShare 25Share on emailShare on print Former Sunderland manager Steve Bruce STEVE BRUCE is a Geordie who got tortured for his upbringing when he dared to cross the great divide and manage Sunderland. Eventually hounded out of his job late last November with his family deeply hurt by the vitriol, he has retreated to his Midlands bolt hole to heal his wounds and prepare to plunge back into a profession which still courses through his veins. Unquestionably the fact that Bruce was a schoolboy fan of Newcastle United, having been brought up in Wallsend, meant he paid the highest price with his head when things went wrong at the Stadium of Light. “I must admit that being a Geordie came back to haunt me,” said Bruce, now ready to open his heart on a painful experience in an exclusive interview. fact “The hatred I suffered was unbelievable. It was brutal, it really was. “In fairness it was a minority of Sunderland fans who abused me but it was way over the top and very hurtful. fact “I can’t change my upbringing. I am who I am and proud of it. But I paid a big price. “As a manager who has spent a lifetime in football I was prepared to take whatever come my way but for my closest relatives it was very different. Both my family and my wife’s family are from Newcastle and they were deeply hurt and affected by what happened. “I had to batten down the hatches and lie low. I didn’t go out to my local pub. “I didn’t want to invite abuse. “The media up there is something else as well.
No you post some good stuff but also can post tripe, just my opinion and you are not alone, we all do
If you can find me the one where he says 2 home wins in 11 months, a win ratio of 29% and despite one of the most humiliating derby defeats (and general derby records) still had the fans backing me, it would be balanced. He is trying to get another football chairman to hire him and is happy to make us the scapegoat for his failure. You, as a Bruce devotee can try and defend your man all you want, EVERY other single person who reads this sees he is trying to deflect attention from his hapless record at SAFC by blaming the fans turning on him as the reason he was sacked. Also, as he lives in Darras Hall, which 'local poub' is he refereing to as being one he cant go into? He drinks in a B&W pub not a Sunderland one so it must have been craas ripping the piss out of him he couldnt stand? Bruce is full of ****e and his ramblings week in week out to anyone and everyoine he can get to let him air his views, testify to that fact.
I am not a Bruce devote Cest, it was time for him to go and I'm glad MON is here. All I ask is fairness and I dont think he gets a fair crack of the whip. I will leave it there Cest, I accept you cant find the many quotes you say you have read, you never would because they don't exist. Off you go Cest, you have the last word.
http://www.newsnow.co.uk/h/Sport/Football/Players~Managers/Steve Bruce There you go Syd, have a browse at these. Loads of stuff about him being a geordie why he was sacked, nothing about his lousy record as our manager.
I read the first 5 and they all have headlines saying Bruce blames his roots for the sack, when you read the quotes not once can I find him saying that. Now this is my last on it, bored by the whole thing so all yours Cest.
