Been said countless times, but it's absolutely frightening how accurate this article from Louise Taylor is - 10 years after it was written. https://amp.theguardian.com/football/blog/2011/nov/30/steve-bruce-sunderland-sacked
Careful you'll be accused of a witch hunt simply because it was so obvious what was going to happen before never mind after he was appointed. Wonder why so many people were against his appointment.
Bruce's gone mate it's over Let's focus on the new and what exciting times we have to come. We don't need negativity on our boards
Ha ha, class. For cattermole read shelvey, for Meyler read Wilson/ASM....****ing mind-boggling it really is. The only surprise to me is that we never had the displeasure of seeing Elmohamady in a Toon shirt !
I’ve read that many times and it was bang on the money and the scary thing is he has had many jobs since and earned around 25m.
Arteta saying he feels sad for Bruce. Dean smith saying more or less the exact same thing. Am I missing something here. He’s hasn’t won a game all season. I don’t recall them saying a ****inh dickiebird when Watford’s manager got sacked. WTF? See this is where I hate Steve Bruce because he could have gone quietly but he’s still opening his mouth talking **** making it look like the fans are at fault.
If you have a spare 5 minutes have a read of this at his managerial career. At nearly every club they same has happened. He’s done the same **** at every club he has been at. If anything he is a horrible petty manipulative man. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Bruce
People feeling sorry for him and that is just funny now, he's not our problem anymore, they can say whatever they want about him, i couldn't care less.
We should really close this thread down. It’s akin to being an ex junky and having meth wafted in your face.
Talking of drug abuse - when is Arteta getting tested and help - Steve Bruce is one of the most important managers in English football in the last 100 years. Aye right. He's up there with Wenger, Fergusson, Klopp, Pep, Shankly etc
I think when Bruce goes into the managers office after a defeat and speaks to the opposition manager he must give them some form of disease. Or maybe even hypnotises them. It begged belief. He has the worst win ratio ever. Ahhhhhhh that’s it. They think he is important for THEM as where are they going to get an easy six points from each season now. That’s it!
I tried telling people to stop pressing fwd when we were getting results because it was obvious that Bruce would play this card. They asked for it because they relentlessly bullied him over 24 months and now they're complaining that he's told the press. I'm no Luke Edwards fan, but what he's said today on Talksport is true. The stuff about doing a fantastic job is absolute nonsense though.
