Let's stick to: Steve Bruces claret blue army Brucie, give us a wave... Plus belting out Birmingham, are you listening will be even more fun now I think you have hit the nail on the head. He is our manager now so let's treat him with the respect that position deserves. Aside from the RDM chant the managers name followed by claret and blue army has been the staple song for all our managers since pretty much as long as I can remember. I see no reason to divert away from that and certainly not for something related to what we used to sing at him when he was on the opposing side. I hope and expect him to get a great welcome today.

Popular Post alreadyexists Posted October 15, 2016 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2016 Don't get why people would make fun of our manager's appearance. He's Villa now. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reivax_Villa Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 It's pretty ironic how our criteria in recruitment was about the character and leadership yet it was everything that our previous manager lacked. I think that SB has that presence that these players need especially on the touchline. We haven't had a manager with such experience and i guess accolades since MON. He may not be exciting, but he will bring some organisation, commitment and some pride back to our football club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are second to every ball and lack the same level of fight as the opposition then it's irrelevant how you are setup. Bruce's biggest job will be to get these players confident and up for the fight. One of the best and most accurate posts I've read on here. Its getting the simple things right.

The thing is Mark.....If the fans don't respect him....why should the players. I do hope the Villa fans show a mature approach to it. We desperately need a togetherness the opposition fear.

sne Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 I expect all of us who'd rather had seen another name as manager will like him if he get's us winning, and love him if he by some miracle get's us promoted. That's how it works. As for people disliking him for managing Blues a decade ago, that's just silly. Who cares? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's playing against League 1/2 level opposition, the standard in Scotland is atrocious. I was at their game v Motherwell a couple months ago in the cup, they won 5-0 and Motherwell were possibly the worst team I have ever seen, could hardly string together more than two passes, our team from last season could've beaten them by a few goals.

Sam3773 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Someone.. I'm not sure who.. But someone mentioned that Bruce should change which dugout we use because we've been poor since it happened. ... They've just announced he's changed it. Scenes. Europe here we come. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
