Genie Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Well chuffed with Mr Bruce, I'm still really confused why we had that dreadful run just after his initial honeymoon period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Kodja, a completely new midfield and very bad luck. edit : Forgot to mention a keeper that was scared ****less and a team completely devoid of confidence. But the biggest reason of all. Jed getting injured!! Edited March 18, 2017 by Vive_La_Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekka Posted March 18, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted March 18, 2017 We're doing well, admittedly it hasn't been pretty, but this league doesn't really promote that anyway (playing on a pitch with potholes like today for instance). It's just a shame we had the bad run over January as we'd be right up there. Well done, Steve. Thanks for admitting the poor run hurt us this season too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Steve Bruce doing what Steve Bruce does at this level. Getting results. It may not be the prettiest (I haven't seen today but by all accounts it was a turgid game), but results count. With his team I fully expect automatic promotion next season.

Farlz Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 No more Hutton at RM please Bruce, other than that I'm happy. A wins a win, no matter how it comes. He's done a super job lately. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrytini Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) Great run he has us on now, well done for that. But...Continues to frustrate ! For an hour he persevered with something that really wasn't even worth starting with, although I can JUST about see his reasoning as they'd got a result last week and a couple only just back . At times we had a back six, at times even more. Apart from the obvious problems it meant whenever we won the ball there was nobody in front of the play other than Kodja. Im afraid I still see too many examples if it. Not a shot second half. But, a big PLUS for - belatedly- changing us back into something resembling a football team. Amazing what a difference it made playing a decent aggressive, positive midfielder instead of a poor defensive one and a striker instead of a fourth full back. Not to mention a winger on the wing. Talk about self inflicted problems again. And once the team got used to there being a functioning midfield, they used it and we looked good. Every time he lets us play football we look good. Every time he is over cautious we look poor. Hopeful and confident he will abandon the latter approach sooner or later.

Popular Post terrytini Posted March 18, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted March 18, 2017 Oh and a shout out for 'team spirit'.... the goal celebrations from the players were as pumped as I've seen for a while. Allied to our general dogged play he certainly seems to have got us more gritty, determined, 'spirited 'and aggressive, something we've long lacked of course. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I was starting to have doubts about Bruce, but i have to hand it to him. He's had to work with a very broken team/club. I think after the last few bad seasons that I'm very quick to judge a few bas results. I'm just going to have to trust Bruce because he's obviously good at what he does and I think with time we will become a very solid side. Well done, Bruce. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
