    He will need to spend about £60 m to keep Hull up.

    This may be an unpopular opinion, but I still have a lot of time for Brucie.

    Although he needed to go when he did. He did manage to raise our profile, I cant think of a better appointment after Keano. He was just another step in our progress and now a bit of time has passed I can look back on his time here with some fond memories. (Chelsea mainly)

    He's been superb for us.

    Reinvigorated everything.

    Make no mistake, we deserved to go up.

    No, absolutely not.

    He's been pivotal for us. Towards the end of the season he faded a bit, and he seemed a bit sulky at times too. He stopped making the same runs, but he has been one of our most important players without a doubt.

    I imagine we will be trying to sign him permanently.

    Well next year is totally different I agree, but he's dragged us here and made the difference.

    No clue I'm afraid, I can't imagine he'd cost much more than £1m or £2m, but that's a massive guess.

    May well be mate but this is a Sunderland forum. We are perhaps a liitle more aware of his limitations. Don`t set your sights too high. Championship is about his level.

    He's a good championship manager and has to be applauded for your achievement, a bit like Mick McCarthy, he'll be found wanting next season, even if he shops at harrods

    I can understand Bruce being bitter towards us. It's never nice to get the chop, that said. Bruce had very nearly 100 games and achieved a win rate of less than 30%. Simply not good enough with the money he had.
    I wish him every success with Hull though.
