Aston Villa manager Steve Bruce has said that he understands why the club has seen a managerial merry-go-round in recent years as rumours surrounding his future refuse to subside.
Villa, despite making some big name signings in the summer, have won just one of their opening seven games in the Championship this season. The arrivals for John Terry from Chelsea and Robert Snodgrass from West Ham United among others, gave the fans genuine hope of a serious push for promotion but so far the club has failed to deliver on its promises.
