[@dingiswayojuma7118]

Thanks Trevor for making this conversation happen. I really liked Bruce. He was a super active goal keeper. A ball cat. Bruce is a great man too and we were lucky to have him in Zimbabwe as our goalizer

Great interview Trevor. Bruce has that Afrikaaner sense of humor and sense of pride that despite all the years in Europe he never lost it nor his accent.

Bruce's story about Honde Valley, I can confirm. My mom and my dad told me this story. What happened in Honde Valley at the tea estates is sad. It happened by the big tree...near Nyawamba River.

Well Bruce. I do wish you well. Will always love you. You have given a good insight to our history. Do not give up about where we come from.

[@t.r.m1698]

Great interview. Bra Trevor was unfortunately not picking up some of the Jungleman's humour. Bruce mentioned the specific time when he scored a goal as joke... Great show as always.

[@goraandre-manuel4126]

Hi Travor thanx for these fantastic shows.. Lovely to have sportsperson.. How about you bring in Brendan Taylor, Heath Streak, Tatenda Taibu Andy Blignaught

Thank you for the suggestion

Our legend.

[@earthlycitizen2155]

growing up in the 80's and 90's, there was a myth that we grew up believing about Bruce. It was said that Bruce once dived for the ball but he went the wrong way, then whilst mid air, he turned towards the ball and still saved the ball.

❤made me shed a tear King Bruce 😊😊😊😊😊😢😢❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉 His Majesty of Zimbabwe, a Freedom fighter in my lenses , u alwys loved your people ignorant to color 😅 Lemme confess that i was born in the late 90s and when i first came to read and hear about the Legendery Skipper nobody ever told me he was white , many years i used to praise The Legend Thinking he was a black guy only to find out later he was white. For that period alone im so grateful 😅❤😊bcoz the History he Made overshadowed any negativity around him. Thank u Bruce for Life , we want u to come back and play your final wish for the country you Invented and blended. May Most High give you strength and mighty We're blessed to hav you ❤ youre such a blessing to 🇿🇼 Zimbabwe, its clear in your eyes , no lips can beat that expression, and those experiences of risking your only Job to play for your country wouldnt be known today if you never speak out. Thats so touching , worse the story of a malfunctioning Plane ✈ imagine risking your life for your nation. ❤❤❤this is Huge , U deserve massive recognition, if everything was running well in Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 your Academy could be recruiting Zimbabweans for Liverpool smoothly but bcoz of useless puppets we cant utilize this its a disgrace to our ancestors.

[@CyberCashMoney]

Thank you for sharing

[@julianchieza7416]

Thank you Trevor for this wonderful conversation with one of our Zimbabwean sporting legends. How about a similar interview with some of other soccer starts of yesteryear - like my father, Tendayi Chieza, who played for Mangula, Salisbury Sables, Zimabwe Saints and the National team and continued as a coach at Zimbabwe Saints? There would be so much to talk about. For example, the position of old sporting stars in todays conversations around sport and development; how those stars are treated today, and a reminder to todays generation about the names and faces that graced our sports fields and hearts. My father is alive and kicking and lives in the UK. @inConversationwithTrevor

When you have struggles in life, you should revisit those struggles to get rid of the demons - incredibly pregnant statement! I was only 4 when the DreamTeam peaked around 1992, but I've got fond memories from reading about that era over the years. I also remember listening to Radio 1 in the 90s when Evans Mambara and Charles CNN Mabika used to do the commentary over football matches - what a time it was! Having done my O'levels at Mzilikazi High, I've re-created my own picture of what a fortress Barbourfields was during those Bruce and Peter Nsukuzonke Ndlovu days. Sad how everything about football has become in Zim now --- my heart bleeds gallons! Cry my beloved Zim football. Only God knows!!!

[@RCMakaz]

The legend Bruce Globera u were the best was in primary school imagine as a woman I used to call myself Bruce Globera when ever playing football and now I'm a mother of 2😊

[@mukundutm]

There is no doubt Bruce Grobbelaar is a Zimbabwean hero though he was born in Durban KZN.RSA.Zimbabweans poured out emotional support when he was engulfed in the match fixing allegations which the London Crown court eventually acquitted him from the accusations. Brucie would turn his back on a lucrative LFC career to fly off 8000miles to play for his beloved Zimbabwe. It was the Zim Jungleman who negotiated the brilliant,beautiful kit deal during the Dream team Era with the Enns Sportswear which was based in Merseyside .I totally agree with Jungleman that Zim football has been dragged into the abyss &doldrums by incompetent, inept ZIFA,SRC,Govt &so-called administrators like Leo Mugabe,Chiyangwa,Henrietta Rushwaya etal.

If we have Hon. Kirsty why not Bruce or Alouis Bunjira at some point heading any of the sports institutions🎉

[@earthlycitizen2155]

maybe they do not possess the requisite academic clout. Kirsty was on a sports scholarship - she was attending university whilst doing sports

[@mukundutm]

The so-called Govt should be bold enough to appoint the Jungleman as Sports Minister!.

[@playgirl7305]

To those complaining about that he said "pikini", it's actually common in many European and west African countries to say for example "my pikini". Has nothing to do with race. Just means my young child. Proberly derived from the Latin language.

[@Nhlansi]

If Boetie van As (Bhud’uVanas) was still at Mat Highlanders then Bruce was not the only white man at the club.

[@poytechnic123]

Great interview but Trevor you should have given Bruce a pep talk regarding the colonial slurs like "Pickaninny" and "House Boy". At least you could have censored those parts. Those words may offend some people.

Bruce used the "P-word" to refer to young children of colour. That word is very offensive. It is an old Rhodesian relic. It is sad that we have to hear this word uttered on a public platform such as this one. This is 2023, we should not have to be subjected to these vile words. I'm disappointed that Trevor did not take exception to the use of this word on his show. When Boris Johnson used this word, he had to offer an apology. I would have assumed that we are all aware of the inappropriate nature of this word. If there is not an apology from this channel, I shan't be watching anymore episodes.

He shouldn’t be using such deregulatory terms as little black African pickaninny. That’s out of order

[@barbradangarembwa1536]

Bruce once played for Zim Saints before going to Liverpool

[@esthercee8142]

“Pickinini” is not deragatory! It was actually a term initially used by black housekeepers when they referred to their Master’s children as “pickinini boss” meaning Little Boss so the term was then adopted to refer to little ones

Yah cringe worthy language in use here. I couldn't watch for more than 5 minutes. Bruce probably just came out of the rock he was living in an hour before the interview absolutely no clue how far the world has changed.
