I think Cardiff will beat them in a comfortable 0-2 victory and SHA fans will say ‘at least we ad a go’ ‘we are on the up now we can still make play offs’

Dont know why people would want Cardiff to draw or worrying about catching them, no chance Cardiff will stay around top 3 positions they’ll be mid table or around play offs at best.

Good night for Scotland.

England need much more than Henderson and Dier if they're going to play that formation.

Really not a fan of Henderson

Awful depressing performance but we got the win, watching England is the cure for insomnia. 

That was the most boring half of football I’ve watched in a long long time possibly ever! Abysmal.

I’d love them to go down but somehow they’ll stay up by the skin of their teeth as usual. I think Jota & Adams will just be enough to see them safe. I can’t see Cotterill having them challenging around the top though, ever.

6-1 LMAO! What a start for Cotterill! 

Hull absolutely spanking SHA, go for double figures Hull

If they don't go up I don't see how they will be able to afford jotas 40k wages from next season...

What you mean? They gave him a 5 year contract I'm sure they can afford it prem or no prem...

Oh really so they went for the cheap option. If they start losing straight away though after carsley impressive start knives will be out early. 

I agree but Carlsey will be he's assistant, I think he'll do better than Redknapp he had an awful start. Apparently Cotterill did all the work in those last 3 games, it's funny how it fell apart once Steve left. I've always thought Redknapp was a con man still do he don't do anything apart from sign players and talk bollocks.

Yep happy karanka turned them down as he would do a better job than Cotterill. 

I've read that he didn't turn them down rather SHA pulled the plug on negotiations as they weren't going well Karanka was very demanding apparently.

Being honest it's an ok appointment especially with Lee Carsley as assistant. I've heard that Steve Cotterill did most of the work with the players in the last 3 games which kept them up.

Tbh I can't see them going down especially with Jota & Adams to come back.

Surprised they won tonight tbh, Wednesday must be awful to lose against a managerless SHA

I think Wednesday will hammer them on Wednesday 

If I'm being honest I thought we were poor and probably deserved to lose or at least draw but we got the 3 points. Not convinced of going on a strong run at all with Bruce in charge, we should not be having 30% of the ball every game with the squad we have, we should be annihilating teams with the team we have. We look like a bottom half team desperately trying to scrape results.

Kuzczak is a decent keeper at this level so don't think it will hurt them that much given they've already conceded hatfuls with Stockdale in goal.

Now if you said Che Adams and Jota out until November (and so missing our game) that would please me greatly.

I agree regarding Kuzczak, Adams & Jota are injured ATM which I do think stifles them badly but yes longer term would be better 

Bit annoyed they got a point at Derby, was hoping Rowett would smash them! 

Wonder how Arry's signings will play under a new manager...most of them I'm sure mentioned they signed as he's a 'great manager'

14 players signed and they sack him after two games, what terrible decision making at the club. 

I actually think they done the right thing as they were losing game after game they looked dreadful and he was laying into the players very brutally that were their under Rowett (who had them playing) there squad was deflated and unenthusiastic (mirroring arrys personality) and imo would of went down I'm gutted they sacked him but if I'm honest it was right thing to do business/football wise for them.

Very chuffed with the Preston result but tbh I'm gutted they sacked Redknapp I think he was taking them down lol oh well still a great day overall ! 

I think if they lose to Preston Redknapp will be sacked, not sure if that's good or bad though from our POV, I'm quite happy harry staying their for a while longer he's doing a grand job lol

I thought, as many did, you surely can't discount his record, he must have something about him to get four teams up, but he now looks utterly clueless. Some of it may be bad luck, but luck tends to mirror the general performance level and right now nothing is working. I never bothered reading up on it before he arrived, but does anybody know what got him results at other clubs because it can't have been 'this'?

Scrapping out results, keeping it tight at the back and playing long ball, a lot of luck thrown in there. A lot of blues fans wanted rid of him before he did go Wigan. 

Sorry but having seen the Hogan block on the line ... 

As bad as things are for us... blues lost 2-0 to Leeds despite dominating apparently and then Jota & Adams both done their hamstrings 

Another 0-0 win for Brucey! Even when he had the challenge of boro going down to 10 men in 4 minutes he still managed to keep it tight and win 0-0!! I can't contain my  excitement
