Quite rightly nominated for December Manager of the Month.
I love the whole "we were absolutely hopeless ... it's happened too often in the 18 months I've been here" said as if it's absolutely nothing to do with him. I think that's why I dislike the guy so much, play well and HE has proved the doubters wrong play poorly and he'll point anywhere except himself. There's always an excuse as to why it's out of his hands to fix.The turnaround since we got rid of the fucking chancer and employed someone capable of doing the job is insane, I really hope we now have owners who know to avoid people like this whenever we need to hire again.Thank McGrath that we've got Smith now.
I know there’s criticism of Bruce and rightly so. But I’ve always said I was eternally grateful that he ended the era of us being a shitshow walkover team to play against. We literally could’ve ended up in League 1. The other thing that springs to mind are his decisions to bring Tammy, Conor, Anwar, McGinn, Snodgrass to the club all of whom have had a major part to play in our recent success. But he does always divert blame from himself no doubt.

Also agree that he had achieved everything he could and the time was right for Deano to take over.

But the game was up when he put the chef in control of the ship, the captain in charge of entertainment and and a waiter in charge of the engines.
