Entertaining and Steve Bruce should never be on the same page, let alone the same sentence.

Was surprised he didnt leave after relegation last season

So many people hold him in high regard for what he achieved in the past and saving Carlisle from certain relegation and then getting promoted the next season, last season however, no other manager would have survived that, new owners, American, seem to have bought into the area and have spent a lot on the ground, want to build a training complex (sounds familiar) and I think they thought they would piss a lot of the fan base off by sacking the local lad, in the end the crowd finally turned on Saturday, some substantial booing and at the directors box, then he was gone.

I believe they offered him a DOF role but he turned it down in the summer, they'd also given him a fair amount to spend last jan and again in the summer.

They are looking to go Sporting Director / Head Coach route next appointments.
 
Stoke today and Schumacher sacked.
They beat Middlesbrough 5 nil away in the cup last round.
 
Carsley won’t survive that.

I think they’ll go for Potter

If not a native, Tuchel.

Pep won’t want anything to do with this mess.
 
The Leicester owner is an idiot. Not sure what he was expecting when you cash in on your best players and don't reinvest..
