Why did Bruce leave

[ianrobo1]

Ok so why did he leave I have compile the possible reasons, which one do you think is the reason ?

I go for the fact that Bruce's plan was kicked into touch

[dubav]

I have to agree with you i think doug suddenly realised this super plan will cost money off you go old chap.

"Langham has left the Midlands outfit, with the club citing a difference of opinion regarding Villa's future direction as the reason for his departure."

That's the only reason that's been given out anywhere so far, could mean anything

[Guest RantinRob]

He was just following the footsteps of our 3 previous managers - they can't all be wrong

[Simon_Terry]

Oh yes they can, Rob. Brian Little, John Gregory, Graham Taylor and Bruce Langham are all WRONG.

Doug is great, Doug is wonderful, sing it from the rooftops, shout it loud enough and one day you'll start to believe it.

[Hanky]

Cos Ellis is the biggest, most (insert a comment) ever to grace VP.

[Denis_B]

Not forgetting our beloved Mark Ansell who also resigned after a disagreement with Doug

[Guest RantinRob]

Oh yes they can, Rob. Brian Little, John Gregory, Graham Taylor and Bruce Langham are all WRONG.

Doug is great, Doug is wonderful, sing it from the rooftops, shout it loud enough and one day you'll start to believe it.

Sorry ST - I forgot

what a thick **** I was to think otherwise :?

one word: Ellis.

[pablopicasso]

ellis realised langham had a clue and a vision...

he had to go...

[John]

Ellis heard someone other than himself had made a decision!

[MikeMcKenna]

BL could no longer bear the smell of piss every day!

[peterms]

Exactly. And any strategy worth its name would have to challenge Ellis' role, and move away from what he had been doing for many years. Supporting such an approach would be like Ellis sidelining himself. It seems that even he realised this.

:shock: Doug needs a CEO who can change a colostomy bag and wipe away dribble. Steven Stride...come on down !

[wazzap24]

I've gone for a combination of issues.

Meaning Ellis has pissed him off more than once.
