Bruce Sacked at last (now official)

[PeterWithesShin]

Aston Villa Football Club can confirm that manager Steve Bruce and his assistants Colin Calderwood, Steve Agnew, Stephen Clemence and Gary Walsh are leaving their posts with immediate effect after having their contracts terminated. The process to appoint a new manager is under way.

A Club statement issued on behalf of the Board said:“We would like to place on record our gratitude to Steve and his team for their hard work and commitment. We wish them well for the future.

“The process of recruiting a new manager has begun. In the meantime, Kevin MacDonald, Aston Villa U23s manager, will be in charge of the team for our trip to Millwall on Saturday.”

From some dodgy website but I do not like this!

Bruce insists that he won’t be having second thoughts about his decision to walk away.

“I’m just glad it’s over,” he told Soccer on Sunday. “I rang Tim Sherwood before I took the job, and he said, ‘Don’t do it Brucey, it’s a zoo. The club stinks of death and the fans are all cross-eyed weirdos.’ I thought Tim was exaggerating, but the moment you walk into Villa Park, a terrible sadness comes over you. It’s like all the pain, the suffering, the humiliation of being Aston Villa — it’s thick in the air. You can physically taste it — a sort of broccoli flavour.”

“It’s the saddest place I’ve ever set foot,” added Bruce. “I did a tour of Auschwitz a few years back, but Villa Park is on a whole other level. If the stadium could speak, with everything that’s happened on the pitch I honestly believe it would say that it has suffered enough and just wants to die now. Bulldozing it would be a mercy killing.”

It's a spoof website.

The cross-eyed weirdos bit is fairly accurate though.

Wonderful news. Now lets just hope the powers that be have a clue what they're doing and don't appoint another chancer.

Thank God for that.  I like him as a man, and liked him even when he was at Blues, but this is very welcome news.  Hopefully now we can move forward with a progressive 21st Century appointment.
