I've already said GO

Shame that some have ignored the request of the thread originator as this was quite an interesting thread as long as it remained a simple 'Stay' or 'Go' statement rather than entering the realms of debate. Stick to the KISS idiom ... it's not that hard .... STAY or GO ... that's it !!!

PigPenn, cheers for pointing that out, still i should have known better than expect eveyone to understand a simple request.

I would have liked to have been able to go through the thread and just see the Stay or Go answers without reading through all the chaff, just to get an indication on the general feelings on our own official board, still some people ain't happy unless they highjack a thread are they! :angry:

Well i may as well have my say now then, i want Bruce to go, and i have done for about the last 18 months, we seem to be in a state of constant decline, and i'm completely disillusioned with the Blues at the minute. When Bruce admitted (in not so many words) that he wasn't a tactical genius i thought to myself "No **** Sherlock tell us something we don't know!"

I think the only thing that will sort the Blues out now and give the whole squad the kick up the arris they deserve would be a change of manager, and yes i would welcome Curbishley with open arms. **thumbup

just hold a poll instead without comment attached

It's now in the Polls section for anyone interested. :applause:

is your post yes for go or yes for stay?

Ok here's the count so far

84 opinions posted

73 - Go
5 - Stay
3 - Undecided (Marky you're going to have to make your mind up soon :) )
3 - not counted (Fans of other clubs etc)

well thats an outstanding vote in favour of Steve then - bearing in mind there are over 4000 members of which only 73 express there desire to see bruce go - i imagine many thousands are like me and wont put down on a stupid nonmeaning thread like this my desire to see him stay - it goes without saying if you dont want to vote him gone then you wish him to stay - so thats nearly 4000 - 73 in favour of bruce staying -

and what makes you think that the other 4000 fans all want bruce to stay.

once there have been several thousand viewings of this post then maybe you might have a case but until then dont assume for anybody

Well with a sample size of 2% (approx) it's actually better than the polls you see published for elections which generally sample something less than 0.1% of voters.

Yet again the pro-bruce lobby shoot themselves in the foot. The fact that someone has not voted does not mean they support Bruce and I challenge you to find anyone who wants SB gone who has claimed that the opposite of what you claim.

The poll is not very clear. It doesn't define what we're saying 'Yes' or 'No' to.

The heading should say 'Should Bruce Go?'.

Which players were these? i hope they are right if they said it  :(

He won't be able to tell you this information. :rolleyes:

I think your right PA ;)

I was in the TF suite.
3 Players were directly in front of me. Dunn, Upson, And DJ. As the final whistle blew one said it to matty. shant say the one as it may be classed as libelious and the post removed.

im saying. "belive what and who you want, if you wish not to belive just ignore it" there is a lot of tosh spoke on here and also some truth, just seems that many people only want to listen to what they say, hence, they are always right, Everyone else is wrong,they are the only people who speak truth and everyone else is a liar. Just having a little input of what i know and what i seen and what i heard.unlike what many on here think what they hear and think what they seen!

re gates, the board know they have messed up in keeping prices as they have.
Our gates are roughly the same as they were in this league last time anyway.
The real issue is that if we don't look as if we are challenging or might go up, Bruce will bce sacked.
Why? Because of the amount of money clubs will rake in next season in the PL. That's what our board are motivated by, not trophies or success.

BUMP!,

Sorry to bring this back to everyone's attention again, but looking at the bickering going on between the Anti and Pro Bruce groups, with people saying that only a very small percentage of people have actually voted in the Poll for whether Bruce should stay or go. And that this must mean that the others want Bruce to... (Blah Blah Blah), this board has how many members? (Admin can you help out here?).

I guess this figure would be in the thousands as opposed to the hundreds, so how about we all go ahead and vote for which ever way we feel the correct way forward, so we can get a larger cross section of opinions on this subject.

So far there have been 166 views with only 41 people caring to actually leave their opinion. This Poll wont resort into a slanging match because it is simply a vote only option, so no replys can be left, so how about it? ;)

If you need the link to the poll it can be found HERE!

Go on you know it makes sense! **thumbup

I want:

The rubbish football to go.

The poor tactics to go.

The poor team selections to go.

The depressing atmosphere at St Andrews to go.

I can only see that happening if Bruce goes!

GO.

He has had since midway through 2004/5 Season to sort us out & I have stuck with him. Even the Pro-Bruce lobby have got to be on the swing to GO now.

I know a group of Huddersfield fans & they can't believe he has statyed so long, he is a man of many excuses. With the money he has had & the team we have, we should never have got relegated, but we did.

We should be walking over teams like Hull (Hung on for a win, saved by the post twice) Colchester (Colchester for christ sake?????? What a great win), Ipswich ????, Leicester????, Scraped a win against Palace, Lost to Managerless Leeds, Drew a blank against the mighty Stoke, Scraped by woeful Sunderland with a pen (a team that plymouth put 3 past) Got truely found out against Cardiff. Oh * we beat QPR (Woweee, the mighty QPR who then sacked their boss)

Bruce didn't face the camera's as he is probably bored of his own excuses now ("Team gelling together", "Young team" "not Wor day" Blah blah blah blah blah)

If he can't get a team to gel after 12 games then he is sh*te in my opinion, a season is only 46 + Cups long, so how long does he want for them to gel.

Forsell cost £5m & IMHO Chelsea saw us coming. The bloke is not the player he was.

I actually think I could do a better job than Bruce, all he did was took some cast off defenders from his mate Big Sam & signed every lower league player that scored goals last season! I could have done that with the money & promise of Premiership football & a pay rise.

Well he needs to get them to play now doesn't he & so far we have won one game by more than 1 goal. Brilliant stuff.


See ya Brucey!! Thanks for the Promotion & Double Double over the viler, you are a legend, but your time is up!!! :applause: :applause: :applause:

Except that it doesn't make even the slightest bit of sense.

Should Bruce stay or go? is not a "yes" or "no" question. What am I voting yes for? Him staying or him going?

Begin a poll staying "Steve Bruce" and then giving the options "Stay" "Go" or "Undecided" and maybe there would be more votes.

Sorry to appear a bit forthright, but have you not read the text below the Poll? :banghead:

I can only sumise you cannot read because for i cant believe for one mintue you can really be that thick! (I jest mate before you get on your high horse!).

Incase you havent seen it, i've copied and pasted below for you.

Should Steve Bruce remain as Manager, or should he go and make way for some-one else?

Yes he should go?

No he should stay?

I'm still undecided?

IS IT REALLY THAT HARD TO UNDERSTAND? **thumbup

It's a GO from me - should have been a resignation this time last year IMO.

Another manager, any manager, would get more out of these players than we are getting at the moment.

That boy is funny where is the link to the rest of this? anyone know?

You claim to be a Pro Brucer but there's a rumour going round he'll be gone by Chrimbo so at the same time that could make you an Anti Brucer

I'm confused now :silence:

Anyone out there brave and willing enough to turn this into a 'Love Bruce' or 'Hate Bruce' thread

So, so far we have 60 votes on the POLL and it's lining up like this.

Yes he should go 75%
No he should stay 16.67%
I'm still undecided 8.33%

Now i know a few people have mis-understood how the Poll was worded, but i think we are starting to see the general concencous of how people are currently feeling.

Maybe if the muppet who originated the Poll had worded it correctly, the figures would have looked even worse or maybe even better, i suppose it depends on which way you look at it.

And Maybe i should hold a Poll on whether i should actually do another Poll and word it in a way that can't be mis-construed. :P
