Why do clubs continue to appoint Steve Bruce?

I didn't say that. But I do think his best days are behind him.

You seem to love dealing in extremes Nobby.
He's not rubbish, but he hasn't been a success everywhere.

Look Rolf you may not know this but I'm the most respected football man on here 👍
I guess you are right though, I guess I do slant
towards extremes. I wonder what that says about me as a person ?
Thanks 👍
 
West Brom have been on the slide since their relegation. Just looking back to our encounter on 6th November - they were on the back foot and playing as though they were the home team. But odd things happen in football. Bruce did a good job at Newcastle - holding the fort steady - with one hand held behind his back. Perhaps if he had an unlimited pot of wonga he could have done differently. Hes obviously up for a challenge - it cant be money? Can it?

At least they wont be troubling our aspirations to get into a play-off spot - and stay there!
 
Glad he has his idiot son with him this time, will make the inevitable failure even better. Clubs will never learn, managers like Bruce, Warnock, Pulis were finished a good while ago

To be fair he's inherited a none scoring and bang out of form side...they are still that with the same players.

Only a very small portion of blame can land at his feet. Although yes you look at Wilder and Cooper at forest and they have had immediate effects.

You'd expect to see some kind of 'bounce'. They looked absolutely awful tonight. Just devoid of any confidence.

I actually feel a bit sorry for him and worry about his welfare. I don't understand why he came back so quickly after the Newcastle affair. He didn't deserve that. I just don't know why he came back so soon. I'd just pack in or have 6 months off.

The former WBA manager built and molded the same style he had at Barnsley. It's actually very much pulis in style. It was never going to be for everyone.

That said I'm not sure what went on with Wilder. Apparently he was very close. I don't know who turned who down? Or maybe the interview went in a different direction for both parties.

I'm just guessing, but I think it might have something to do with earning £2M per year! - Also, if he is good at compartmentalising the stress of the day job, he probably enjoys it overall.

Not sure you're the absolutely "most respected football man on here" Nobby, but your ITK 🔥🔥 releases are somewhat unrivalled - 👊
