Exclamation Water pump help!!!!

HELP!!

I'm trying to get the water pump off a VTR and to say I'm struggling would be an understatement, it keeps breaking where I'm trying to pry it off and there ain't much left of the bracket, I've drilled holes in it to try and loosen it and it ain't having none of it.

please will somebody tell me how to get the stupid fooking thing off cause I'm about ready to take and angle grinder to it!!

Get an old long flat blade screwdriver in behind & wallop the handle.
