    Bruce was sacked cos he turned ****! When he turned **** some fans pounced on the fact that he was a Geordie and used it as a term of abuse! ie. he wasn't sacked cos he was a Geordie!

    Total crap mate. That was his excuse. If it was that important he wouldn`t have got the job.

    It's in the op that the fans unfairly took the flack for Bruce. Fact is he lost the dressing room, results turned bad and we voiced our opinion like any fan of any club would. To tar us all with the brush of the minority is unfair and frankly offensive considering you come into our space to tell us what bad fans we are.

    Couldn't give stuff if you watched the 73 cup final with your father, doesn't give you the right to make up your own versions of events and offend us with it.

    Cant help but think if Titus had been offered another contract, PDC would still be there with 5 consecutive wins...<whistle>

    Oh.

    Ok,good luck for the rest of season,except for two games of course. For what it's worth,i think you'll stay up (and hope we do). I'd go for Di Matteo,or Zola,they look to be the best options at the minute.<ok>

    Is it me or do people not realise that Ellis Short is a glorified accountant where costs and, ultimately, profit are his only aims.
    What experience does he have to run a football club? None.
    I really do think his commitment needs further scrutiny.

    I've still got his back but I think he needs to acknowledge his mistakes. Like Ashley up the road, they need to realise they need more than a shrewd business head to run a football club. Knowing football helps, bit of common sense wouldn't go amiss now swindon have come out and stated nobody from Sunderland even asked them about his methods. <yikes>
