AshVilla Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Surely a hammering is on the cards for Colchester tonight. Even Blues managed 5 - 1 against Crawley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing we all have opinions on and because it does take time, its unclear.....is he the right man?.....if he is not we are just treading water. but bare in mind we have had a few stabs at it.....who's to say we get it right next time......who is going to fund all this trail and error. I think we have to stay with it for a while. If we do not get promoted this season, I think we will have to stay with it for a considerable while.

Dave J Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I thought the unwritten rule is to support your team whoever this is during the 90 mins and then at full time you can share your emotions to the team/ manager - no? for those who say this was only the first game - yes clearly so - but everyone knows Bruce had to hit the ground running - this was more of an amble imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 He has changed it. It's play for 30 minutes then stop and invite pressure. Bruce's usual change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing has changed from last year. He is not the man to build us and move us forward. Yeah we won but I can see a bigger picture than x2 turgid games.

Blose spanked a league 2 side last night 5 - 1. Best Bruce could manage was scraping a 2 - 1 win with help from an OG from the opposing team. Not really good enough is it considering our aspirations are to get promoted this season and we can't even put away a league two side comfortably.

sne Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 We progressed and gave a bunch of kids a run out. Also learned that Thor can't play LB and that Samba can't play CB. The game served it's purpose. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
