Bruce brought a lot of the vitriol upon himself, unfortunately. Having a go at the fans, belittling the club at every opportunity to try to lower our expectations to match his ability level and the cowardly way he set us up so many times; combined with the huge well of frustration we'd not onlly been drinking from but had been thrown into and it was always likely to end in tears.

On a related note, I don't have faith in Jones to keep us up. Given his brief tenure at Lincoln he may be another of those coaches who makes a great number 2 but can't cut it as the top man. Not saying he won't at some point in the future but, after the Spurs game-if he's given that to allow the new owners (new owners, how good does that sound, man! ) time to get someone top notch in-then I'd rather he either left with his head help high or joined the new fella's coaching team.
