The next couple  of weeks will sort a lot of things out one way or the other.   Fail to get more than 2 points from the next three games and I am  sure Bruce will walk.  Two games against possible promotion rivals and the local derby.  I just hope he can rank it up more than a  few notches.

Witton , Bruce won't walk, he is well aware that this is the biggest gig he is ever likely to get, this has to come down to the Doctor saying enough is enough, thank you but I have not seen my investment produce results that for that amount should be expected. He has one of his largest investments playing Aussie Rules and another one who cant get into the starting 11 and when he comes on the pitch looks like he has won the Argus competition to be a Villa player for a day.
Scoring him:
As a person = 6
Tactically = 2
Value for money = 4
Entertainment value = -1
Ability to cut it if we do go up = -50

Who is that a reference to Bjarnason? Hogan?

Both and at times you could place the Slug Glen in there as well.

I think this is the alternative Steve Bruce thread that DW is referring to, Steve you have your critics and I have doubted you in the past but it does feel like you are finally turning my beloved club around.

Agree except every game until May 2020 when we will subject PSG to Funeral in Berlin.  Bruce can be Harry Palmer making his entrance in a ready mix concrete hopper.

No relaxing, no switching off, go after every team we play against. We have second place firmly in our sights. Grab it and don't let go.

Looking at events since Steve Bruce came in, he inherited a total mess where if not handled correctly could have seen us drop through the trap door to Div 1. He has stuck to his job despite criticism from a few quarters. His Signing & persuasion to get John Terry here was superb, he has bought in other experienced players to help our promotion push Snodgrass being major. The whole club appears to have now shaken off the last 4 - 5 years disappointment, so well done Steve Bruce
and here's hoping for an automatic promotion place
