[Albion] Would you welcome Bruno back ?

[A1X]

Booooooooooooooooo!

Well overdue taking that banner photo down at the back of the West Stand

What he did was IMO worse than what Tossard did. Yet I don't see anyone moaning about Trossard getting booed on Saturday.

Trossard was honest and up front that he wanted to go on to bigger and better things. Granted he could have handled it better but he got his way in the end.

Bruno made his bed with his once a seagull quote then jumped out of said bed as soon a bigger pay cheque was on the table. I can't blame the guy for doing that we all have to look out for number one but I certainly won't be welcoming the bloke back with open arms.

I’ll respectably agree to disagree. He gave us his best playing years. He’s not a born and bred Albion fan. We couldn’t offer him guaranteed work when Potter left so he followed him. It’s totally understandable and shouldn’t detract from the positives he brought us, even if the theatrics of it all have been blown out of all proportion. Almost everyone here would’ve done what he did, so I see no real difference.

Trossard, in comparison, went on strike and acted like a baby.

Bruno wasn't guaranteed a job under the next manager and was offered security somewhere else. Nobody should blame him for that.

Off to the 'Ammers just in time for the opening of the Silvertown Tunnel. Nice easy car-share commute to Rush Green for training every day

You know the "Once a seagull..." quote meant that he wasn't tied to the club – and ONLY the club – for life, right?

The story in ANY other walk of life is: man is offered a job promotion. Man takes job promotion. You even write that you don't blame him – and yet it's worse than a player with an attitude downing tools and throwing them (along with his toys) out of the pram to get a move! With an agent who puts out 'threats' about sticking him on the bench...

 

[Greg Bobkin]

Clap Bruno - now it’s died down he made an error and is paying for it. What he did as a player and coach far outweighs the mistake of following Potter.

What error did he make?

Firstly well done for actually reading my post. The others clearly didn't.

You've basically echoed what I said. Trossard was up front with his intentions.

Bruno basically told us he loved us then ran off with our better looking but very slutty sister the following day. Unsurprisingly she did the dirty on him and now he's ended up with an Essex girl who will also probably f*** him over. I certainly won't be shedding any tears if and when that happens.

Oh cobblers. We could put a decent team out with the amount of ex players we've got working at the club in some capacity.

Andrew Crofts still managed to keep his role on the playing staff.

 

[El Presidente]

Fans are not loyal to players, clubs are not loyal to players, so why expect any loyalty back?

Man takes job promotion - does everyone in his old office need to still bow down at his feet and thank him for the work he did years in the past? And continue to have the office canteen in his name?

Yes Bruno was a fantastic leader. But at the end of the day, for him it was just a job and for the fans he should be just an ex-player.

Good luck to Bruno.

Did so much for the club and cider community.

Still one of my favourite ever players

I'd have guessed he was a wine drinker. What did he do for the cider community out of interest?

No, but my issue is really with the other side of it and the people who seem obsessed about how APOPLECTIC with RAGE that they are about him having the temerity to leave for a better job.

First of all, well done with your patronising first sentence

Your love triangle metaphor doesn't really work because Bruno retired as a player in May 2019 (and appointed senior player development coach the following month) and then left not 'the following day', but more than THREE YEARS LATER! And those three years had been spent working with Potter, so it was even MORE understandable why he would follow him to Chelsea...

 

[Flounce]

I don’t so it’ll be BOOOOOOOO from me, but I doubt he’ll know it’s directed at him with Potter there as well

Anyone who wants to clap and bow down to him, fill your boots, it’s a free country.

As to the tread title exactly what penance has he done?

 

[Justice]

That’s football, some fans still rage that Lawrenson forgets he played for us when he’s interviewed. Comparing football to the real world is just daft
