Bruce fears Yeung could wield the axe

STEVE BRUCE fears he will be sacked as Birmingam manager should prospective new owner Carson Yeung take control of the club.

Birmingham might have slumped to their third away defeat of the season at Ewood Park, but that was not the biggest issue weighing on Bruce’s mind last night.

Bruce has been anxiously waiting to see if Yeung would approve a new contract that was agreed in May with the current board after he steered City back into the Premier League.
