Did the fans ever really take to him?

im sick of hearing that ex blue peter presenter ask this question making it out as if he was never liked because he's a geordie. Of course we took to him! He has eventually been undone by not achieving or even coming close to what had become to be expected of him based on his previous perfomance, which fans have always praised despite dismal runs of results in both seasons. We have been happy overall with his recruitment in his time. As a bruce out man i can honestly say i never wanted him to go because hes from newcastle, i dont care if the manager is a geordie or a georgian or anything in between. If he's a good manager he will be loved by the fans

 

Hey. I would take Alan She-ra if he got us top 6.

It's easy these stupid ****ers who know nothing about the game talking as if they have the inside track. ****ers! Did you hear me WAANKEERRSS! I said. We didn't like him because he was clueless. A completely **** manager.

I remember one of these faceless ****s who are on the radio spouting about stuff they know nowt about,but this time it was about Kevin Kilbane of whom he said "He was never that popular at Sunderland because he was bought to replace crowd favourite Allan Johnston." They can't, just can't for the life of them tell the truth these ****s. Kilbane was despised because he was unmitigated undiluted ****e from the first kick of the ball to the last. That's why we didn't like him. He was **** and so was Bruce. **** do you hear me. Bruce was ****! He was a Geordie but he was **** first! I'm going for a lie down. Exhausted after that.

 

I'm quite sure that there was a very small proportion of our fans who were never going to give Bruce a chance because he was a Mag, but the vast majority have been supportive of him right until the Wigan game, which was just the last straw following a shocking run of home results..
