Except our list would include Ismael Valerian - his Pulis-esque approach might suit us....if we needed a replacement. Ismael would be a perfect appointment for us if it goes tits up with mon Foreign? FOREIGN??? I reckon if Klopp or Guardiola offered to manage us on a 5 year contract for free the Coates' would still want to interview Michael Appleton and Nigel Pearson.

I don't think Baggies fans will be happy with Steve Bruce. Many of them liked Mowbray and his style of play, but I suspect he would not want to leave Blackburn given their current form and position in the Championship. Baggies fans would be ecstatic if Brucie was employed until the end of the season and got them promoted.

obviously u can’t answer 😂😂 I do like a little rib tickler from time to time, apologies. I just don’t see why we’d want a man who has been sacked for a dreadful run of results and sliding from pretty much top to outside the playoffs in a matter of weeks. Suggests the players aren’t on board which is never a good look for a manager in any walk of life.

Bruce to Weat Brom then.
Could be a very good short term appointment.
I bet their fans aren’t happy though?

Is that because of his associations with other Midlands clubs or just the fact that he has been around the block a few times? Fans tend to like the novelty value with managerial appointments. They tend to not like someone has been seen to have failed at any point even if that manager has other successes under their belt. Bruce has more successes than failures. I think this is a good appointment but nothing is guaranteed.

I think this is a good appointment but nothing is guaranteed. Probably in part because of the Midlands association and probably because his football can be pretty negative and basic (and eye-bleedingly bad at worst). Decent manager at this level, though I wonder if he's possibly just past his sell-by date like some of his contemporaries seem to be?

Hope this goes well for him as I think there is a manger in there if he can just find a balance

It’ll be interesting to find out and for not to be us 😂 I’d expect Bruce to get us promoted though over MON. But the thought of keeping him on for more than a year would put me off.

Yeah I've never been hugely enthused - he seemed to do well at Brum and ok at first at Sunderland and in his short time at Wigan. When he was being touted as a Hughes replacement though I was mortified.

Surely there comes a point where living in a Marbella villa and doing fuck all seems like the only and best plan in town?

Very! And you'd think it'd be a similar list for us unless we went outside the box (and I don't really think history suggests we would!) Quite a strong card in MON's favour, along with having to pay him off a few million...... Except our list would include Ismael Valerian - his Pulis-esque approach might suit us....if we needed a replacement. Well at least he can spot an oxygen thief when he see's one, Romaine.

Steve Bruce never looked well during the last few months at Newcastle, god only knows what joining the Boing Boing Baggies would do to him, probably finish most people off. He should stay retired and look after himself a bit better

Alex Neil probably a disappointingly sensible appointment for Sunderland.
