It's galling as editor of this fine city's evening newspaper to believe that we've got to this... Bruce is now 99% certain to leave Birmingham City FC for.... WIGAN???!!
I mean, if he were destined for Newcastle, Manchester City or even the likes of Everton or Tottenham, it would feel different. But Wigan?
Just what does that say about how bad it's got at BCFC. Shakey takeover close to collapse, current owners appearing to some to be keen to move on, Karren B, bless her, herself not sounding like the defiant, confident and assured woamn that was always her strength.
With all that creating uncertainty at Blues, it's no wonder that Bruce has itchy feet. But Wigan??!! It's almost an insult. No, it is an insult.
Well, if that goes ahead, get on with it, Brucie.
But then it really will be a case of watching to see if KB, Sullivan and/or the Golds do now get a quick, vital grip on things... expectant fans will want answers in days.
Let's just hope that O'Leary is not even mentioned as an outside chance for the next occupier of the St Andrews dug-out...

All too true and even more painful.
To accuse the Blues 'powers that be' of mis-management is to go too easy on them.
as ever Mr Sullivan has been looking to take the quick 'buck' and this time it has rebounded on him (and us) massively. Did they do any homework on Carson Yeung ?
It appears he doesn't have two halfpennies to scratch his 'proverbial' with.
As for Stevie Bruce, goodbye and thanks !
