    I know that this is not a reliable source...

    But they have now made Bruce favourite to go 1st. Normally they are never wrong.

    Being honest it is inevitable Bruce will get sacked, but how long do you think he will last??

    I think a couple of games.

    I am not a BOB. In fact I would love him to succeed in his job because he seems like such a good bloke, but I also not a BIB. I am happy whoever the manager is...

    My point being, it does look like he is gone soon.

    I, as you know, am BoB.

    However......

    Its his squad now. He has spent the money.

    How can we possibly let him go?

    It's unfair to expect anyone to come in to make a silk purse, without them buying the ingredients.

    Funny thing is, Ive just received a txt tonight from a canny relaible ITK (has friends in the local media) and he has said exactly the same thing.

    Bruce is to be shown the door very soon?

    Time will tell I guess.

    I've got a tenner on him at 14-1. Think it might still be Kean though.

    Is it not just the case of.

    Quinn moving to another post, Short becoming Chairman (even though i have no idea why Short couldnt sack him before Quinn moved to another post)
    Arsenal away next, = not much chance of much, but miracles can happen.
    Bolton away = Bolton playing crap, but had hard games, must win for them = hard game for us
    Villa home = Bent putting the final nail into his coffin.

    Are you a BoB cest - eeeee I never knew!!!! <whistle>
    One thing is that SAFC have come out and said it's Bullshit (in not quite so literal a term) and Bruce is still going to be there
    I will support the team and the menegr (whether I want him there or not) as I believe that the alternative would only bring a negative response from the players. If we can get anything from Arsenal on Sunday then I'll be a happy man

    Next Manager Sacked betting isn't a market the bookies seem hugely interested in, so if there is a sniff of money on someone coupled with some bad results, they'll slash the odds. It's very much like the transfer betting from the summer, people got excited about imminent signings due to their short prices, but it really means very little. It's when they suspend the betting that something is usually about to happen, as someone in the know has got wind of it.
