The owners are doing what they can to stack the odds in their favour by sorting out the backroom staff then I'm pretty sure they'll twist on Bruce after, no point sacking him now, paying him off, replacing him with another manager just to need to replace them a few months later once everything else is sorted Sauce?

The articles that state we've just sacked off a load of staff as we are restructuring the backroom team? Unless I misunderstood, in which case ketchup, maybe bbq for special occasions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTOH... we'll probably finish top 6 under Bruce ( and no doubt if we were out of the playoff picture he'd be gone regardless ) so if you bring someone in the remit has to be automatics or what's the point changing at this stage. If they want to change the playing style and give the team an identity it requires a pre season and a transfer window which is why I think they'll stick with Bruce for the rest of the season unless he massively messes up.

I think there will be a change this season and I think he will get the January transfer window to make any tweaks to the team and allow him a solid 5 months to get a good idea of all the playing personnel that we have and a while pre-season to implement their new team and style wether we stay in this league or promotion. Either way I am a bit more calmly assured Bruce has not got long left regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back five with a holding midfielder/sweeper and then a massive gap to the attacking players who all seem to be in each other's way. Should fit right in.
