Mark Albrighton Posted April 2, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted April 2, 2018 I think he’ll still be here next season. I can’t see the club wanting to pay him the compensation, then take a punt on another manager who may or may not work out. Who would that manager be? Would he be happy to work with a lot of the existing squad? Because I don’t see us bringing in many new faces in the summer. I also think if Bruce goes, we increase the chance of losing Terry, along with any possibility of having Snodgrass on loan again. As they’ve both been considered plus points this season, I think the club will want to retain them and Bruce gives them a better chance of doing that. I’m far from happy with Bruce, I wouldn’t shed too many tears if we did let him go in the summer. But I get the feeling that club will take the view that this season was much better than the last one and basically keep their fingers crossed that we have better luck with injuries and hope beyond hope that we do it next year. They might also take the view that there probably won’t be a Wolves next season and the three teams coming down won’t include a Newcastle. Again, I find none of that inspiring, just a gut feeling as to what the thought process might be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, I find none of that inspiring, just a gut feeling as to what the thought process might be. I see what you mean, and also don’t think it’s a formality he goes if we stay down. But I think our chances of keeping Terry and Snod are hugely diminished by not getting promo anyway, more because of the financial constraints. Unless parent clubs are subsidising heavily, I can’t see how we’ll afford the numerous PL loan wages 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just suspect that Villa are a more attractive prospect to Terry if Bruce remains. But yes, the financial side of things will be a huge factor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there was talk that Rdm got the job because rumoured he was a high profile name - that’s what made me wonder If xia would be inclined to consider JT . ‘Let’s hope Bruce pulls it off and we get promoted - would be some hell of a day in May if so 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, with Bruce the problems will still exist. With someone else we will at least have the chance of something better. Nothing is ever guaranteed. But you sometimes get to a point where something has to change. We have to hope that management make the right decision if they decide to change.

If the manager is the source of the problem and i am not saying he isn't, just that I am not convinced he is, in a direct sense......Then a change of manager, shouldn't need any money because the implication is the players are good enough.

You know I wanted him after rdm and am a great admirer - he has the ability to get the best out of his players and also play a lovely brand of football - I don’t think we will get him here though unless we are a remover league side . That ship has sailed if we stay in this league . Edited April 2, 2018 by Eastie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
