briny_ear Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 It all depends of course who determines the expectations, how realistic they are, and indeed whether they have been created specifically to prove that the manager is the “worst”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be nonsense, but won't matter at all as he'll be chip wrapping by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When are the owners going to tell a journalist the specificities of any potential sacking. As I said before Bruce always seems to save himself just when it appears the bullet it about to be pulled. Its no coincidence that Alan Nickson ( is that his name?) has come out with the 2 game story, when our next 2 games are against the 2 bottom teams. I don't think your gun has been built properly. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That stat "6 days in the top 2"........Its like a dagger in the Heart. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has to go. End of. We have seen these fleeting " moments in the sun" before and then quickly back to normal. There is no positive consistency in this team.....and that stat only 6 days in the 2nd spot, has staggered me. What are we really waiting for other than the right manager.

AshVilla Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) Still here then i see... I guess i'll be watching Eastenders instead then.

Popular Post TRO Posted October 1, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) I do find it comical, when I hear journo's relate to Aston Villa Fans being demanding. I think its so Ironic. We went down winning 3 games all season. We have been in the top 2 for 6 days ( that stat has tickled me pink, I think its shocking) We are currently sitting at 15th in the championship. DEMANDING..... Now that's what I call fake news......We are an owners dream....what was it 35,000 the last Saturday game? We must be amongst some of the most tolerant/Patient fans in the football league. We have got some front us villa fans , we expect to win now and again you know. Edited October 1, 2018 by TRO 26 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Spending the money we've spent, paying the wages we pay, we should not be just one place above our screaming neighbours. Not because they are well-dwellers but because of their financial circumstances and huge difference in quality between squads. What happened to Bruce's belief that you need 2 points per game to get out of this league? We are currently sat on 1.4 points per game - that alone proves he's not hitting his own targets! We'd have to win the next 6 games in a row to hit the 2 points per game mark. Can anyone see that happening? If the owners have any ambition at all they need to see the bigger picture here and get rid. Bruce doesn't know how to set up an attacking team and with our defence being so poor we need to attack because we need at least two goals per game to have a chance of winning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be a hard fought 1-0 win against Champions-elect Preston, who are one of the biggest teams in the country don't you know. Tomorrow night will be a "scalp" according to Bruce.

AshVilla Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) Preston the team who are bottom of the table with -10 GD and have only won 1 game all season. We should win 5 - 0 surely not even Bruce can **** this up. I can't wait to hear after the game from his mouthpieces in the media on how Bruce is a tactical genius and that were so lucky to have him.

Which, knowing Bruce’s relaxed attitude towards accurate time keeping, means it was only 3 short seasons ago. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the first team to win the double in the 1888/89 season. Edited October 1, 2018 by jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
