Neville Southall is in better shape than him. He has gone mentally, checked out. Thanks, Dr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanky Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Pretty dire performance from the manager today. Subs were awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 That's the second home game running the master plan to change the game was to bring on a RB. Pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dn1982 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 It’s been over 12 months and we still haven’t got a style of play. I hope Wyness and Round are doing due diligence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grasshopper Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Yet some will defend him 4 promotions needs time best bet he gets results not his fault we‘re still only X pts from Y with Z to go, all we need is a run.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted December 23, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted December 23, 2017 (edited) Failing to win from a commanding position today is 100% on Bruce. Not because of selection or tactics or failure to inspire but because of his unforgivable negligence in leaving our central defensive options so bare and so exposed to injury problems. He should have brought in at least one capable experienced but not old central defender but instead left us threadbare and bought all those right backs and right sided midfielders that we just didn't need. He was responsible for this and he should pay the price for a catastrophic error which will probably cost us promotion just for want of a little bit of cover.

terrytini Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 He is blaming individual mistakes again, as he has done ever since he arrived. But this is the Championship. Everyone makes mistakes. It seems lost on him that the reason mistakes keep “costing us” is because we create pathetically little of merit at the other end of the pitch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 I look forward to the end of the season when we should finally see Steve Bruce go. It's a waiting game until then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my view it was never a commanding position, because we dont play commanding football. And - again in my view - a failure to get promoted will be the complete absence of quality or useful pattern to our play on a weekly basis, not on how many centre halves we have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastie Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 (edited) Sick of his excuses now - he’s at a big club with a big squad and has spent big money - has come up short of results and is very lucky that wyness and round are sticking by him because they haven’t got the balls to sack him and admit they were wrong Edited December 23, 2017 by Eastie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we were 2-0 up with a proper half decent central defender in position instead of a midfielder who's good for heading a ball and little else, we would not have failed to win.
