Many stuck by Val but the football over the last three months was shocking - same tactics without change - shocking discipline and where was the high press? Where was Tolluch over the donkey Hugill? Val also lost the dressing room. Look what happens in a normal job if a team has no respect for their manager!

    Val had to go as supporters ( the majority ) had seen enough. Many supporters at Millwall ripped out seats in frustration and demanded he was sacked - I get it!

    For once the club have reacted quickly - got rid of Val before it was too late and also got rid of two clowns on the Board and brought in a footballing guy! As Des said - Bruce was the best appointment we could hope for in this complete shambolic mess!

    I am off to Sheffield and vowed not to go again. Even the ticket office said sales of tickets have increased since Val was sacked. This tells you something.

    I agree with building for the future but there were no signs of this and the football was getting worse.

    The majority of supporters could see this and amazed if you can't. I will go one step further and say the football of late was worse than Pulis if you consider it's a poor championship and NOT the premier league!
    Al, Bruce! its Bruce, Its not someone to get excited about! If the change was exciting I would be with you all the way.

    To be honest Boingy with the pathetic dribble that's been consistently dished up over the last three months and no change of tactics or formation - Baggie Bird could have done no worse. So yes I am excited ( not my choice ) but by the best manager available who has the experience to sort out the mess. I would put money on it - there will be a decent response.

    I think you have a point regarding player unrest at the club, I'm sure that Bruce will be a more personable person around the place.
    Just a few poor results though, and Steve gets a few of those and all the usual comments will be back.
