Isn’t Luke Edwards the journo that he spoke to about his mum & dad passing?
Would guess he has the inside de track on what is going on with Brucie so is this a genuine come & get me to Leeds or an attempt to get Villa to firm up his position?
I was firmly in the Bruce Out camp until Christmas time, got behind him once it was obvious that he had the backing for the season, after Wembley wanted him gone but with the financial situation I am really undecided, can see the benefit of stability but also worries me whether he has it in him to utilise youngsters proactively.
This is me too. If we are limited to managers currently out of work because we can't pay any compensation there are some potential nightmares out there......
If Bruce goes, prepare yourself for Mick McCarthy

Or Steve Cotterill, Alan Curbishley, Sam Allardyce, David Moyes, Alan Pardew.....

Yeah, we might end up with a manager on a very good wage who plays dull football, can't get us promoted and does nothing towards bringing the youth players on. Oh.

See the post above re Allardyce, Moyes, Pardew etc ............they are the likely candidates . You want any of them instead?
If PWS can put up his perennial clip of Mick McCarthy I will put up my perennial bleat that Curbishley still owes me for the koi carp in his pond. Less libellously, the man who sold him his house owes me for the koi carp.

Did he sell the house to John Scales?

Sounds a bit fishy to me. But do you have to keep carping on about it.
I think that Moyes could do a half decent job for us.SB never took a team to the Champions League, and don't think that we would have saved Stratford United last season.....

They are the likely candidates according to who?
Because if your hypothesis is we're limited to out of work managers because we can't pay compensation, do you really think we can pay the wages Allardyce, Pardew or Moyes would want?
There's enough to be miserable about without making stuff up to be miserable about.
Don't forget Dwight Yorke, he deserves a shot at management.

Can't believe we haven't spoken to him...

You're not John Gregory are you?
I have been changing my mind a lot over Bruce, but the past weeks events has lead me to want him to stay.
