    Pochetino

    His mate Ardiles says that the Toons new owners have made him a very good offer and he might accept it.

    I'd be happy with that. Very happy, in fact. He's a fantastic manager with a great approach to the game. I remember listening to an interview he did on 5Live and thinking how I would love him as our manager...and here we are, with the prospect of attracting a manager of his calibre to our club.

    Just as long as Ozzie doesn’t come back as his assistant 😆

    He was manager when we first got our season tickets. Tried to play pretty football but it was flimsy and ineffective, unfortunately. We would have gone down easily had it not been for Keegan coming.

    Delighted with that.

    We will hopefully be stepping up our game now and will need a man who does tactics.

    Bruce, not the worst we have had and I think his lucky stint here should get him another job somewhere else more suited to his talent and philosophy.

    Aye, his stint here should easily get him another job in Chimpo.

    Bruce will come out of it well. He'll have a good bulging lump in his bank account and a few Fizzy owners will look where we were in the Prem rather than where we should have been with his lack of tactics and presume he did a decent job rather than fortunate to have us where we were.

    Yeah and everyone will be spouting ' Poor old Brucey. Another English manager, done a good job and was booted out for no good reason. Should have been given a chance to prove himself. Blah, blah, blah'

    My reply is always the same - Check his stats - check his record

    Sheffield United 1998-07-02 1999-05-17 0 N/A 22 15 18 55 40%

    He's had chances and never won anything or done anything to deserve 'A chance' - He has proven he is a dross manager.

    Literally only got work as a manager because of his playing record.

    FLUSH the turd!
