Burley was the one who gave Bramble his chance at Ipswich, where he massively impressed, causing Newcastle to sign him.

 

Bramble said:

 

"I'm sure he will do well at Southampton and I will be wishing him all the best when I see him, hopefully after we have won the game,"

 

"George was the manager who gave me my chance when I came through the ranks at Ipswich and I have got a lot of respect for him. It's a tough job for him at the moment because Southampton aren't doing so well.
