    I think its more the press banging on about it. He's just polite and answers the questions.

    In that case he should be more professional and politely inform them that he is the Hull City manager now and he is not there to talk about an ex club.

    Thought it was quite funny myself but the one linked on the same page about Newcastle and Sunderland picking each others managers was funnier. You could almost believe it.

    Is his only sacking as a manager at Sunderland ?

    If he doesn't bat these questions away now he'll get tagged as been obsessed with it....

    Doesn't really work in the internet age, that.

    Unless you're wrapping silicon chips, perhaps...

    Don't forget you only played them on saturday.


    So the week pre and post match he's obviously going to get those questions.

    Nothing story although i'm surprised he hasn't nipped it in the bud.

    Strange that a 'friend' of Brucies would go to the press and start telling them things like this...:emoticon-0112-wonde

    So Newcastle have been appointing Sunderland's manager in recent times. I reckon we must have been doing the same for Leeds. :cheesy:

    I'm pretty sure no one has failed to realise it (although Polly's doubt was worrying). It would be pretty much impossible not to get it.

    He said to Burnsy after the game that to much had made of it.

    Its the media, they need a angle to sell the story. Bruces Sunderland past was it.

    If he just refused to talk about it, it would make him look bitter.

    I must admit, after initially dismissing it as a spoof, I then realised that this fact had passed some others by (and still appears to be doing so!), and it did shake my certainty a bit!
