Much like comparing different managers abilities whilst they are at different clubs with different assets to work with, it is difficult. My point remains that I'm willing to support someone with a proven track record, whether I like them or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Well if simple concepts like getting behind the manager require being broken down into segmented explanations and a bullet point presentation for you ..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So at no point did he play 4-1-5. So that's progress. Please God, not 3 at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Designer1 Posted October 12, 2016 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted October 12, 2016 To be honest, there is never going to be a unanimously accepted managerial appointment is there? There will always be people who have different ideas of what the club needs and who the next incumbent is. That's just you know...people innit. I've certainly no issue with people being hugely sceptical of Bruce, I was exactly the same with Sherwood and RDM but at the same time, I was willing to give them a chance because football being football, occasionally a manager just fits a club like a glove and it all comes together. We can but hope eh? As for Bruce? yeah, I think he'll do OK. I think he'll be unspectacular, get us reasonably well organised and maybe start playing something resembling a balanced team (not 'ALL THE STRIKERS!!!'). I'm certainly nowhere near as nervous about his appointment as some of his predecessors. We need someone to drag the team in the right direction again. Hopefully he can be the one to do it. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's fair enough and not too dissimilar from my current view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
