Bruce's job was to steady the ship then get us up - he completed the first, but failed on the second part.

Bruce I felt didn't have faith in the players at his disposal. His other big mistake was thinking Onomah had anything about him. Even if we had got up with Bruce he would have failed. Smith has the brain at least to know you need a strong backroom staff.
Dean Smith is just the 4th Villa manager to win Manager of the Month.He joins MON, John Gregory, and Brian Little.

There's always been a manager of the month as far as I remember and used to be accompanied by a bottle of Bells. Big Ron was also Villa manager after the Premier League was formed - we were runners up in its first season. He must have won a manager of the month that season.
