Such a lovely person this guy honestly. Never seen anything nasty from him in all the years he’s been in the sport, just a nice man. Always loved Bruce!
As a proud lrishman............id love to see Steve become the next Manager of the Rep of lreland
I would too.....has had a great career and I think he would create a great environment with Ireland for us to do well, with an Irish mammy he surely gets us too as a people.....always liked Steve Bruce too....a real gent!
😂😂😂
Wise up man done in management.
are you Irish? We are talking as Irishmen.....not Club
He’s finished man stop it
A player that never got his due on the international level, was a true warrior borne of blood, bone and pure grit, and a rock for us at the back, and lets not forget that the scored 50 odd goals in 400 odd appearances, including 19 in one season. Legend.
He got 18 goals including 10 penalties in one season! He was a brilliant player, not that technical but an amazing leader. Fergie would not have had that level of success without Bruce. ⚽
Just the mention of the two goals against Sheffield Wednesday gives me goosebumps
Steve Bruce always comes across as a top fella. Seems like the sort of bloke you could have a pint with down the pub. Decent player too.
cas was not even irish he had a pint of guinness. what a gent steve bruce is, plus his mum is irish.
one thing that always strikes you about Steve Bruce, is that he is one of the nicest and most genuine of guys, he never deserved the stick he got at newcastle. God Bless Brucey
Yes he did deserve the stick he got,and let’s be clear,that is all he did get,not cabbages thrown at him like other fan bases,but yeah,will just concentrate on Newcastle…Wally
He was useless at Newcastle. Utterly miserable
he deserved every ounce of criticism - he wasn't training players and the squad were unfit as a result
@@Wardley-Toon I couldn’t give a fcuk what he you think he was like at Newcastle, I made an observation on his character. Football is not that important, and a bigger concern of yours should be that an Islamic country now has bought and owns the club.
@@ZoeGildayHold on, you are basing management credentials on how nice someone is? Maybe invite him around for tea and biscuits with your nan and stop romancing his time at Newcastle.. he was piss poor.
Met Steve few years ago wen he was Hulls manager an I was working next door to Alex's house, real nice bloke proper down to earth, was great player to cant believe he didn't get any England caps
I travelled to Gillingham to watch Norwich play in the league cup and Bruce was playing for them. We signed him not long after that game. I called him the Golden Forehead as he seemed to hang in the air and bullet headers in. Especially the one in the second leg vs Ipswich in the LC semi final that put us through to the final. Superb player.
Yeh happy days And when we paid 2.2 Mill for pallister a lot of folks saying we should have bought Glen Hysain that Liverpool bought lol
Love Brucey, an out and out United LEGEND
Real decent fella Steve Bruce is I enjoyed watching him play for Man Utd
the day he scored twice against sheff wed. i was in the bath with the radio commentary on as I was just 11years old, when the first one went in i jumped up and down when the 2nd went in i jumped out of the bath slipped and hit my nose on the bathroom door and its been out of shape ever since. I know bruce and others have the same issue. But mine i happily took!!!
Is that the game where he scored in 7 minute of 4 minute PURPLE NOSE TIME ?ROBBING SHEFFIELD?
steve bruce legend of a player thank you for what you did for UTD
the one position Ireland had an abundance of great players was central defence......
back then there were great defenders my god.. and some of them were prolific
The foreigners rule was ridiculous. The brainchild of Lennart Johannsson. I remember watching United getting hammered 4-0 in Barcelona while Schmeichel and Cantona watched on in their suits in the stand. We owe a great deal to Jean-Marc Bosman.
I thought Bosman was the instigator of the “Bosman free transfer” ???
It was a good rule
Bring it back
@@am32irelandit also stopped the rule of only allowed to play 3 non home nationality of that club in Europe simultaneously
@@jonblazeinc how?? I think they were two totally different rules
I was in F stand at the sheff wed game, bruce glee was awesome, what a game that was. The start of fergie time, ref got injured, amazing, chris woods was unstoppable, then bang, bruce right at rhe death heads in 2.
What you came for 6:26
MVP
Not all superheroes wear capes. 🙌🏻
I bought some kerrygold butter once just on the off-chance Big Jack heard about it ! 🤪
❤ Bruce
A very effective,Tough Centre half for Man U..( i think he scored some crazy figure of goals one season) and he has always conducted himself with 5 ✨️ decorum!.
One of the nice guys in football.
She ought to have told him to do one.
Great author
We would have him back at Hull in a flash. Our most successful period ever and it was all due to Steve Bruce and he did it despite having the most impossible chairman ever.
Class penalty taker
Steve Bruce is the only player who played under Fergie who had a good coaching career.
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
@@thegoat11111did a great job at Hull
He certainly made a good career out of coaching, considering his extremely limited ability at it.
Mark robins who's at Coventry is doing a fine job 😊
@AndrewStack-lr9fv Yeah, hope he knocks out united in the semi final of the FA cup.
Is there anyone who hasn't an Irish ancestry hiding somewhere in their background? Those Irish seem to have put themselves about a bit lol
the infliction of famine and war from the brits back in the 1800s made millions of Irish emigrate from 1850s to about 1920s so 70 years of immigration to other countries most notably America Canada Austrailia and UK and some others it got us around a bit lol usually though fully Irish parents which had or have kids in said countries and just progressed from that.. there's 100's of millions of people all over world with Irish Heritage even in Jamaica lol.
Ireland is probably the greatest country in the world as anyone with a soul who has been there will tell you but it's changing now because of immigration which completely changes countries good or bad depending on what you think
@@dondamon4669 nothing wrong with diversity. The problem is that successive governments haven't built enough homes. Adding migrants to the gene pool will give us a better international team.
@@joekavanagh7171so you want to destroy your country so the Irish soccer team winsl. A sport that is not even the national sport of the country? Soccer is frivolous entertainment and winning with those who are not true Irish in the team is no credit to the country
Canny story that, about Jackie Charlton. I'm a geordie but a Villa fan. Brucie managed both of our clubs. Gets a hard time but it's from intellectually lazy people in my mind. Never forget who signed Super John McGinn for Villa. And 2 million quid!! Smart move, VERY smart. Cheers Steve
What do you think of the job he did at both clubs then and do you think he was unfairly sacked by any clubs.
@@jmw-qt2ih I dont think he did a bad job really anywhere hes been at. People have done better but when you give him the job you know what you're getting.
@@herrzyklon Did you ever watch Newcastle when he was a manager the football was turgid at best.
@@jmw-qt2ih yes I did. And yes it was. But as I said, the club knew what they were getting. Not every manager is a Kevin Keegan. Who, by the way, scrapped your youth development program if I remember rightly.
@@herrzyklon Please please lets not compare Bruce to Keegan thats like comparing Barnsley to Barcelona. You are correct in the fans knew what they were getting and thats what we got a total dud however it was Ashley who hired him no one else
cracking some wild farts here.
I wouldn't mind Bruce as our manager
Are you living 20 years ago? Lol
Don't you like your club? 😂
I think Bruce leaves teams in a much better position than he finds them in but i think his management style became tired . He finds some very good players to .
With all this entertainment this season like 3 of the 4 F A Cup Quarter Finals and The Premier League and Championship,we need someone like Steve or Tony Pulis to calm us all down and park the bus and put 10 behind the ball before we get to carried away with being entertained...
"too" not "to"..
A united great
Club>>>country
Should it not be Country
Not sure why ppl hated him so much at Newcastle
Cos they were shite 🤦🏼♂️
It was the results that was the problem, all Geordies wanted him to be successful as a fellow Geordie.
Was such a great player would of died to win the game but he could also play football, scored important big goals and a lot for a defender and even took penalties. Ferguson has said Bruce and Pallister were better on the ball then Ferdinand. Crazy they didn't have more England caps but Adams was great also but Pallister or Bruce should of been beside him as they could pass not just cajole,head, block and tackle like Adams
Ferdinand is overrated
His mother was from Bangor , NORTHERN IRELAND, Brucie needs to learn some geography .
A large doner kebab and cheesy chips
Well y'know
Bruce was a great centre half and should have been playing for England. Not the best manager.

He was a decent player in a very,very good side, which made him look better. A bit like Raheem Stirling. That is why he never got a single game with England. He couldn’t fool the England managers.
I met Steve at my petrol station-he used to bank at the same branch of the bank I used & it was opposite my station.He wanted to leave his jag in car wash whilst he went to the bank. I asked him for a photo & he happily waited & obliged.Pure Gent & played for my beloved club as a captain too being instrumental in us winning the first league trophy coming from behind against Sheffield Wednesday to draw 3-3
Good your english
KEANE OR Bruce as manager with oshea as assistant for Irelands manager would be great 👍 🎉
well fergie was a rangers fan so...enough said
Your Mum is from Northern Ireland (UK), Steve. 😂🇬🇧
Still qualifies pal as its the island of ireland 🇮🇪.
In those days if you drank Guinness you could qualify for Ireland
😂😂
@@bobbydazzler329 english teams had players born abroad to like john barnes , terry butcher , owen hargreaves , Cyrille regis , raheem sterling , zaha , salako , luther blissett , rob jones just to name a few.
Plenty of people in northern ireland with irish passports. Including the unionists who want to now have the benefit of EU travel 😂
Can you please stop talking about Man utd
Stay mad. United! United! United!!
Biggest club for a reason
Nobody wants to hear about city
11 years and counting@kingulv
@@AbouGoma Plastic City
One of the dumbest rules ever stopped Steve Bruce getting a full cap, just bloody stupid
Yes, it was. Almost as dumb as VAR today. Easier said than done I know but Bruce should have dug his heels in about it. He’d never get another chance to play international football and in a World Cup and he ended up leaving Man Utd anyway 2 years later in 1996.
@@RsR6969 Bruce knew that if he did play for Ireland, he would have had less games for United, and of course, he didn't know he would be going 2 years later
@@Nykona-Sharrowkyn Fair point but at 34, he was at the back end of his career. It’s something that must still niggle him.
Cheesey chips and an extra large kebab. 😉
I can’t trust any Geordie who tries to talk posh it doesn’t come across very well and if your proud to be a Geordie be a Geordie
Bruce needs a kebab NOW
It shows hos brain that he has to build a house for something to do! Why bot get healthy, get your nose sorted, read, travel, love your wife or divorce and meet someone you like as obviously he's not happy, he has tge money to do whatever he wants but instead he sits around desperate to be a manager which he must know by now he hasn't what it takes and tge game has changed to much
Did he talk about how he showed 0 loyalty to the majority of clubs he managed?
How loyal would you be to your employer if you were offered a bigger and better job with more money??
Do you mean by waiting for a massive payout or by later on managing one of their rivals?
@@shaunminto26 Loyal stretches the length of a coin mate. There is no loyalty in football and you're kidding yourself if you think there is. Countless managers and players have played for rival teams, its nothing new.
@@joelthorpe4170 you’re not wrong but have you noticed Bruce seemed to manage a lot of rivals more than most would consider Sheffield united and Wednesday Birmingham, villa and West Brom Sunderland and Newcastle Not disagreeing with you at all but Bruce certainly wasn’t as loyal as he always made out to be
@@joelthorpe4170I agree.....unless you join your biggest rivals!
Sucking up to Bruce.. pathetic
This is absolute toilet, he is a total clown.
Turn the video off. Find a new video. One that makes you happy. Don’t watch 10 minutes of a video that you don’t like. It’s illogical. Unless you like disliking things.
Brucie emptied out all the kebab shops in Manchester. Last thing fergie wanted is brucie coming back even more tubby having devoured all the potatoes left in Ireland 😂
So Alex Bruce was given the opportunity because his daddy invited him to train with a Championship club... Casual nepotism.
Not necessarily he was probably going to play in America and it was the chairman who inquired about him
@paulhynes170 I'll simplify this for you... Alex Bruce was only playing in that practice match because of daddy... The chairman only saw him because of daddy, and then daddy vouched for him.
Did you get released by Hull or something?
@@Throb1🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why should you not play your son if he's good enough? Surely there should be a rule about that! " I couldn't play coz my father was manager" wrong
What a count you are Alex
