Ask him what happened the night of the Hatton V Mayweather fight when he was in Bristol for a charity legends game.

Did you talk to him?

[Xherdan]

Sweaty palms.

[JohnnyH]

Did you ask to move seats? I think I probably would have.

 

Not a Liverpool legend.

[NavyRedMan]

Seen him walking outside Wembley straight after the 92 cup final, signed loads of stuff and had photo taken with him, top bloke.

[Funkasy]

Bet you did.

 

I see what you did there.

I think I would of asked to move to.Totally agree on not a legend as well.

[Trumo]

Did you ask if him and Johnny Wark were really brothers?

[Hermes]

He's a financial adviser now, with don't Save And Prosper.

WTF!?

[Wee-bey]

EDIT: Hang on, he was cleared.

 

Ahem.

Ahem.

 

People doubt Brucie and which 'paper' was it that published the 'allegations' about him?

 

As for him not being a legend, he's up there with the flying pig, and clam as our great number ones.

[goatboy59]

He had his pay-off reduced to £1 and was ordered to pay 500k costs.

 

Regardless of the paper, his defence that he "was on a spying mission to find out who the crooks were" is fucking lame.

 

There were holes in the whole bribe scandal for sure, but enough substance to make Reds feel wary of the term 'Legend'.

Something was definitely amiss, but for what he did for the families after Hillsborough, he'll always be a legend. Tarnished but, all the same.

Isnt british justice great? You get found in your favour and costs. Then the rag appeals and he still gets a not guilty but finds his award reduced to a quid and he has to pay costs! WTF is that about?

 

I defy anyone to show me a game Bruce deliberately didnt stop a goal or chucked the ball in his own net.

 

All this at a time when we were winning titles and cups etc.

 

Seriously, if anyone believes that rag over the word and actions of one of our players, they should have a word with themselves.

[zigackly]

I don't believe for a second he ever chucked a game for us and until someone can prove it he's still a legend for me.

Read up on it.

[INTORRESTING]

I have watched the games referred to and vowed never to again and blocked them from my mind.

 

I loved the guy but there is a cloud over him imo.

Neither do I. He wasn't greedy, he was the first player I've heard of who gave away some of his testimonial money (£200,000 I think). But the biggest doubt in my mind is, where are the bookies who were supposed to have paid out on these "thrown games"?

 

Not one has ever come forward to say that they paid out heavily on any of the results. The reason they haven't come forward, is because they don't exist.

[Turkish Delight]

I asked him for an autograph at the age of about 8 and as well as saying no he shoved right past me. Unlike Mark Walters 5 minutes earlier who not only did but took time to chat to me too.

 

I've always thought Bruce was a prick ever since.
