Mystic Neg Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I will be staggered if Bruce were to come to Wednesday. There is no way he would be up for what the role appears to be at present unless he is either completely desperate for a job or something bigger is happening at the club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 If Bruce was to come in, then that would give me a degree of hope for the future. He's a very experienced manager and would do his due diligence and want certain guarantees before taking the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given he hardly figures and it looks as if they have a good chance of promotion, can't see them buying Rhodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quist Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Interesting thread. Nixon gets his information about us from Doyen since they do not have as many links to us his info has dried up. he does have connections with bruce and his gang and information around him is usually very accurate. Therefore quite certain story is true. This is not an easy job for anybody and if Bruce did come it shows DC is prepared to put more funds into club. Advantage Bruce has over others appointed is he is in touch with football has good contacts and can get hold of players. He knows a decent player when he sees one. The big disadvantage last two incumbents had is they had been out of loop for a while and did not have anybody they knew who they could bring to club to improve side had to rely on Agents to dredge up rubbish. having said that Jos has not had much chance to bring in anybody. The only issue I see is that coaching has moved on significantly in last few years and many who were effective are now struggling. Only Warnock has shown he can adapt to new styles therefore if Bruce is appointed sincerely hope he has a younger assistant with him who can lboth bring fresh ideas to table and learn from Bruce and hopefully establish some sort of management continuity.

Seemed adamant it was a done deal though. Find out next month I guess, and if it was a done deal then early in the month too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
