sne Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 If he and any of the players are throwing games to prove a point then surely we can sack them without having to pay compo. This is as good as it gets, and I don't think he has a clue to why it isn't working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairy In Boots Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Tbh for those that have called for this from mid point last season, this isn’t shocking. Theres no redeeming value from any of his tenure at all really, just hope we finally pull the trigger 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does seem he is playing the likes of Jedinak at cb to prove a point that he should be allowed to get his men in. I always thought the new owners only kept him for stability whilst they got themselves settled, it happens under most take overs that new owners want to make a management appointment. I’ve said this for a while, including on here, and been laughed at. Really, really suspicious what he is doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post villabromsgrove Posted September 1, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2018 I don't think we need to let the question "who can we get to replace him" stop us from sacking SB. Bruce has been an anchor dragging down our team for some considerable time. His baffling selections and his total lack of coaching ability have resulted in a bunch of confused individuals playing well below their collective potential. Sack Bruce now and take the next couple of (break) weeks to get in someone who knows what they're doing! Put Mark Delaney in as caretaker for a short period if getting the right manager takes longer than expected .... He's a decent man manager and certainly won't do any more damage than the current incumbent! It's time to upset another club by making an irresistible move for their manager. Sell the Villa project to a guy who has the brains and ability to coach our shell shocked players into a proper team, and then make full use of their potential. Brendan Rodgers or an equivalently talented "Coach" has to be the way to go. Chris Wilder had a bunch of average players ready to kick our arse today. They were clearly fitter, more determined and better coached, and Wilder's only one of a number of decent Championship coaches who have embraced a professional attacking ideology. Think what we could do with a really talented manager/coach with the right philosophy! Enough of this Bruce Ball sh*t! It has to end now. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talldarkandransome Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Once the away fans turn there's no coming back. Think he'll be gone by tomorrow and wouldn't be surprised if someone is already lined up. Rafa or Rodgers I'd be happy with.

We are only one win away from being in amongst it. What else can go wrong? The new winger had a great game in central midfield today that gave us that one goal we had to get to keep the game within reach, sadly not to be and il be picking up those players I threw under the bus on Tuesday night and ask them why there has been no response from them regards knocking my door again".

AshVilla Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 (edited) LOL..... the only way i can describe Steve Bruce as a football manager. The Brinners in this thread are certainly getting what they are asking for. I thought promotion was the aim? Laughable it really is. I wonder which players he's going to throw under the bus after this one. Edited September 1, 2018 by AshVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 I said I'd give him till October. Past few games have been awful, today despicable. I can't give him longer. Bruce out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny isn't it, literally the least financially important income stream, but symbolically the beating heart of the club. Purslow loves to read the fans right, so he'll see that loud and clear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
