Next manager?

Fair play to the poster last night ( forgot who it was ) but said there were rumours that some background staff were getting the " Spanish archer ".

He said all the coaching staff!  I was wondering why they all bothered turning up at VP last night!

"No plans to dismiss Bruce at this stage." according to the Telegraph.

In fairness, we probably wouldn't notice if they didn't !!

At this stage isn't exactly a ringing endorsement.

But aye, potting him now when we sit on sixth will look a bit odd to the outside world.

That's ok, we've dropped outside the play off zone tonight.  Time to sack him.

So was sacking Redknapp when Spurs had just finished 4th.

Yeah, and Blues binning Rowett when they were in the playoffs.

Who's laughing now eh?!

[The Moose]

Who is? Us? Not while Bruce continues in charge. The rags? Fuck them.

I'd prefer and think it makes far more sense to measure ourselves against Spurs than that rabble down the road. The Rags are given far too much importance when in reality they're as important a benchmark as Coventry City.

[sickbeggar]

that's the problem with the play-offs unfortunately. Would you sack him if we were 3 points off a play-off place? Probably not. Would you sack him if we were 16th? well that's QPR - 16th and 3 points off a play-off place. We're never gonna do bad enough to get rid of him till the summer.

[ROBBO]

I would sack him for even thinking of bringing James Collins back to Villa.

Do we know this to be true or was it journalists speculating?

Aye. If he is seriously, seriously contemplating that one, we're getting towards padded cell territory.

Rowett was sacked when he was over performing.  Bruce is under performing and it's time for a change.

Small Heath are more of a skid mark than a benchmark.
