We’ve had the chances. And should have had a pen. Maybe two. And be playing with the extra man. Well done referee, everyone’s talking about you, you bent little rocket polisher.

EXACTLY THE SAME HANDBALL. this ref is a crooked prick. Kevin Friend part II. word removed.

Blatant pen.

Half hour in and this ref should already be reported for being on the take after the game.

Referee is a **** joke.

Not too bothered anymore. Last Tuesday sucked all the anticipation and excitement out. Second is gone and we’d be going some to drop out of the playoff places. Not bothered where we finish from 3rd-6th as we’d have to beat two good teams either way. Would probably prefer Fulham in the semis rather than Wembley to be honest. Bored of losing at Wembley.

I had my doubts that he’d ever fulfil his obvious potential, but he’s been an absolute monster this season. The best player in the championship. The best player the championship has ever had maybe? **** brilliant.

8-0. Chester to get all 8

It also doesn’t do much to stop drifting snow and ice forming when it’s minus 10.

Surprised Swansea still appears to be on. Think most of the Premier League grounds are in areas not so badly affected last night but I think South Wales got a good hit.

Privatise the profits, nationalise the losses, it’s the modern way!

Sensible decision IMO. People moaning about us not coping with a bit of snow would moan more if we spent billions on equipment that we’d use once every five years.

Don’t think I’ve ever seen a more cast iron penalty. Looked like he ran into a wall.

If that’s the case we should get some lads with buckets outside the ground before each game. Have a whip-round and pay the goddamn fine.

If that’s the case then get someone to Hutton him in training.

While I’m always ready to spout off when zbruce gets it wrong, it was great that he made some effective substitutions today. And hats a couple of games in a row he’s made changes without waiting till there’s only 15 minutes left.

Well here’s hoping Bruce learned a lesson or two. He just seems too stubborn and stuck in his ways for me. If anything’s gonna teach you something though it’s days like today. Guess we’ll find out an hour before the next match. If Onomah’s on the teamsheet then Bruce can **** right off as far as I’m concerned. If he’s learned a lesson then great stuff, let’s crack on and get second.

Like I say, just reflecting what I read in the Mail about him missing preparation for three matches. We did start to play some football in a couple of those matches which isn’t typical of Bruce’s... style

Would rather Wolves win that any day. We’re not catching Wolves.

Look what happens when you play 11 men instead of 10 men and a lazy bastard

If I’m wrong then fair enough. I read that in the Mail last week about not being involved in prep for three match, so it could be total bollocks. Agree on on the second point. And hopefully the effect of his first substitution today will teach him not to consistently start lazy, poor footballers

You wouldn’t have posted that half hour ago! take off Onomah and we score three. If he gets the **** hint now then I might stop slagging him off, but Bruce has got it wrong the last few matches. ETA: I still maintain we should be in a more comfortable position in this league given the squad. He may be doing alright, but there are managers out there that could have done better IMO

Am I right in thinking that for half our good spell Bruce wasn’t in charge day to day because of his family issues? If so maybe that’s the answer. Seems a nice bloke and I’m sorry for his current troubles but he just doesn’t seem to be doing the job well.

Bruce continually picking this useless lazy waste of space tells me that he’s lost the plot.

I’ve never been his biggest fan but his shot-stopping in the last couple of months has impressed me. He’s so weak on crosses though. Any opposition manager should be instructing his players to just drop the ball in the six-yard box to cause panic. That said thoigh looking at the highlights, he looked to be shoved by a Preston player as he made the punch. That’s given as a foul 90% of the time in today’s game. I found it interesting that he was more than happy to keep kicking from similar positions to the incident on Saturday. Shows he has some sort of arrogance, confidence or simple pig-headdedness that might do him good when he makes the odd howler.
