Don't even need to read what you've put to +1, the title says it all.

 

Bags of experience in the English game and all the leagues.

 

Proven track record.

 

Loads of Contacts.

 

Won't be pushed around and will guide an inexperienced Chairman/owner

 

Been there and done it all himself and a leader of men.

 

Has already raised the profile of the club.

 

Oh, and a thoroughly decent bloke all round.

 

Welcome Steve Bruce, we're glad to have you and buzzing that you've finally started. Hope you're well physically and mentally.

Agree, dont think he has a mental problem, well not yet, the wrath of owlstalk, don't think there will be any need in his case.

No need for this negativity. 

Proven that DC didn’t interfere with JL team selection. DC showed deference to SB on football matters during the presser so no indication that he plans to interfere. Both DC and SB confirmed there and been clear and open communication on budget, FFP constraints and expectations. DC has displayed loyalty (some would say too much) to CC and JL and only pushed the button when the fans demanded it so again no evidence of interference

Mrmason69 is all about negativity, thats how he rolls on here.

i'm sure given time and financial backing he'll turn the club around …...lets hope he gets both .

mrmason is a pig.  He has confirmed that himself.  There are posts on here that will back that up.

just read in the star he's only on a twelve month rolling contract... would've preferred him on a 2/3 year deals myself or is that the norm?  due to FFP or something to be concerned about...

Maybe Wednesday gone other way after getting fingers burned once too often giving out generous long contracts.

You mention Yorath. I often feel he is unfairly left out from discussion of who was our worst manager. Absolute basket case

Yes but when I see Gabby everything is forgiven.

Big Ron was one our best managers of all time. When we sacked him after he'd saved us from relegation, the club died in that moment. We sacked him when he did the unforgivable thing of asking for money and we sacked him to teach him a lesson for daring to leave when he'd guided us to promotion.

some things never change. We've always had megalomaniacs running the club since the 60s.

the football we played when Ron got us promoted was incredible.

bruce could be the man to save us. He will have laid down the law to the little corporal making it clear that interference equals exit.

Above all Steve Bruce is honest. That may not go down well with our owner, as he likes to have leverage over his staff. An honest man can be problem for people such as our owner. Why? Because they don't have a price and are above financial incentives as a means of being controlled

bruce as a massive job to do. Basically our team is third rate.,they aren't fit.mthey are overpaid. Don't try, and are used to getting away with being awful.

sadly Bruce can't get rid of many of our players as they are in silly overpaid long term deals. Rhodes will be back for two more years. Dobbin is her pe for a year. Jones and Abdi have at least one more year. The list is endless. Forestieri has three years left. He looks washed up.

the best two managers around are Bruce and Alladyce( who are available and affordable) the latter would,never manage under an owner like ours and he's not the man to get us up.

weve got the best that's available in Bruce. Sadly, Wednesday politics and the owners insatiable desire for power and control is an intangible variable.

Given a free role, as every manager should have, then there's no better man than Bruce. Unfortunately it's not that simple at Wednesday.

we shall see
