Ultra Posted 17 October 2006 Posted 17 October 2006 He may be right. The brummies are in freefall. They're doing a lot worse than the baggies were, when they sacked Bryan Robson!
lookwhaticando Posted 18 October 2006 Posted 18 October 2006 He may be right. The brummies are in freefall. They're doing a lot worse than the baggies were, when they sacked Bryan Robson! It went tits up when they only managed a point against Ipswich. They then earned just a point out of our game, and since then have lost two more. This is the same team that was sitting pretty in second up until about that point - right up with Cardiff. Now Cardiff have run off, and Birmingham look to be going backwards. A sign of the times - we're just 2 points behind them. We must have been about 8 points behind not many weeks ago.

They even lost to Leeds FFS!
Solihullfox Posted 18 October 2006 Posted 18 October 2006 Actually see Mr. Bruce and family out and about in Solihull quite often. It's very hard to see if the stress is getting to him because his face is so mashed up already. The locals really are not a happy bunch....I thinkhe has one more game at best. May go and stick some cash on Curbs being the next manager.
NFFC Chris Posted 18 October 2006 Posted 18 October 2006 Some wanted him when they were 2nd which I thought was ridiculas,but it is justified now thier squad.Terrible manager,just like his friend Bryan Robson.
Daggers Posted 18 October 2006 Author Posted 18 October 2006 I reckon he should have gone last year when he amply demonstrated that: a) he was tactically inept b) he was a poor man manager and could not motivate players c) he was a slipshod disciplinarian Did the board think that he would sit down with a book over the summer and swot up on his weak areas? Maybe, it was that Brady was too busy swooning the media and going on about her illness, and the Porn King was busy with a box of Kleenex or somesuch? I was amazed they kept him, and remain amazed that he's lasted this long. NFFC Chris has it right, he is in the same bracket as Robson - and living proof that ex-players do not necessarily make the best managers.

I'd like to throw Graeme Souness and to a certain extent David O'Leary into that little group.

(Robson more at Boro the Brom though) Bruce has been a dead man walking since last Christamas should have got rid then
