No great shock that ours is the club that have had the first proper 'outbreak'. Especially given the state of our training and medical facilities.

But maybe a break will let Bruce have enough time to 'dust ourselves down', 'roll up our sleeves', continue his 18 month long 'work in progress' and all the other bullshit excuses we've been hearing. Honestly, what a chancer this clown is.

Has there ever been a manager so disliked by so many clubs' sets of fans?

Only the sets of fans that have endured him.  Newcastle don't deserve him, they are far far better than him but he still shithouses his way into decent jobs.

I heard that DOL is disliked by virtually everybody that meets him.

I never disliked Bruce, rather the opposite, I was always a bit puzzled as to why he kept getting and keeping incredibly well paid jobs and being allowed to squander millions of pounds but he always struck me as an Honest John sort of bloke. We've had worse.

Handsome Pards?

Was Bruce's football as... disorganised at Villa as it is with us?

Thing is, we've probably got the best squad we've had since our last relegation and he inherited a really solid defence, but it's awful stuff.

Bruce, Pardew, Hughes, Colin Wanker, Pulis, Holloway. With the possible exception of Colin, the others are probably decent enough people away from football.

Somebody just mentioned DOL, that shithouse is in a league of his own.

The Fish is a Geordie fan. No reason why he can't post in here.

Pulis for his `style` of football.
Colin Wanker for his `style` of football and being an all round twat.

P.S. I like other fans who come here.

I quite like Colin - any manager who collects strikers as a hobby is good to me.

Plus when he was giving it to Nuno Mendes when he ran on pitch like David Pleat on acid rather than shaking his hand was very very funny

I never disliked Bruce despite his association with Heath's both Newton and Small. He just comes across as an alright bloke, the less said about his managerial style the better really.

Pullis? Hated him since Pennant dived to win that free kick and turn the game 'round only for him to launch a campaign against diving a few weeks later. And he dresses like a 12 year old hanging about outside a Spa on Bonfire Night.

And as for Colin, where do you start? A bigoted old Brexit twat for a start and you know how angry we all feel about VAR? you can blame moany ****** like him for wanking on about decisions to cover up their own incompetence.

But I really dislike DOL.

When Bruce first arrived he actually improved our organisation from the slapdash efforts we saw under Di Matteo. Overall very mixed with some good performances mixed in with some absolute rubbish. I found no reason to dislike him as a bloke but he seemed to regularly get out thought by more progressive managers with less expensively assembled squads.

He was getting pelters the other night. An Ipswich friend decided to unfollow me on Twitter after I told him a few home truths about TSM2, so I had to laugh when I saw him slagging off Lambert with a lot of expletives.

I didn’t want to say I told you so, but....

He's going to be the most despised man in Norfolk soon.

Steve Bruce now just seems like one of those blokes who is well liked in an office but who is someone who no-one can figure out how he ended up doing a job so far beyond his capabilities.
