A perfectly reasonable observation. Whether it's the same people or not, you are perfectly right to observe that there are similarities between then " yes it's rubbish but wait for a pre- season, " to pre- season "yes it's rubbish but wait until the season " to now " yes it's rubbish but it's only 3 (4) games. And I say that as someone who fell for the first and second of those. I certainly won't fall for it again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because people didn't agree with you doesn't mean they were ignoring what was happening on the pitch. They saw things differently. Turns out you were (probably) right. Well done. Have a pat on the back but don't be a prick about it. I was one who said the football was awful but that he'd probably done enough to earn another window and a preseason. People didn't ignore what was happening on the pitch, I wasn't on my own, it was woeful and only kodija making the most of meagre chances got him the positive results Bruce got. The idea was that having a preseason with the group might have meant he coudl impose a better pattern of play, and stop them looking like a bunch of strangers randomly picked out the car park. Unfortunately they still do look like a bunch of strangers randomly picked out the car park and not a football team. So, he should sod off.

Vive_La_Villa Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Although his comments make him seem a bit delusional if he remains manager I want to see him fighting rather than just give up and wait for the sack like Lambert did. Need a win so bad tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too - how many times did he bang on about the expectation and players having to Handle it - he is the one who can't handle it and his comments about people wanting him out after one bad week are utter bollocks - he's been shit for most of 10 months !

What a # nerve. I wish I could get his ear for 5 minutes. Apparently talk of wanting him out is "ridiculous nonsense". You don't respect the fans then Bruce. You can't/ don't construct ANYTHING remotely resembling a case as to WHY you think it's ridiculous, or what you are doing about things. You simply say it's ridiculous nonsense. And your argument is it's 3 games. No, it isn't, it's 4....we scraped past Colchester too. Oh. And it's the 35 or whatever before. And the countless players in and out leading us bnowjhere. And it's that in those '3' games you refer to we managed one decent HALF - and it was decent, not match winning, not great, and not anything remotely resembling the product of nearly a years 'coaching'. Cardiff was embarrassing. Reading was humiliating. For Gods sake we barely touched the ball at all for half an hour !!!! And I've heard NOTHING about your plans to improve things. But I've heard excuse after excuse. I wish he'd walked up to me second half at Reading and told me to my face that my ( and others) anger, frustration, and despair was 'ridiculous nonsense'. I don't care if we win the next 6 ( which should be the goal to get us up to 2 points a game after 9 games) he won't so much as a clap from me. Oh, and "we could've been sitting here with a Win, a Draw, and a defeat " - that would STILL be inadequate you patronising so and so. Chill out man. It's only football - 13 people got ran over in Barcelona yesterday, Trump (sort of) stuck up for fascists in Charlottesville, and it's been proven that confectionary items are smaller than what they were, despite costing the consumer the same amount of money. If you get that angry about a bloke talking about football, don't turn the news on for gods sake As for the bit in bold - that's the spirit.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted August 18, 2017 Author Share Posted August 18, 2017 1 minute ago, lapal_fan said: not really dem. Why ? I think any Villa fan is justified at being angry while we lie 23rd (beneath bloody Millwall!!!) with the worst goal difference, and playing some real shocking football, with no passion or urgency/drive to score a goal. You might argue thats it only 3 games but it really isnt. We have won one league game in nine and that is atrocious with the players we have at our disposal. Terri is frustrated and rightly so. I am sure if Bruce was winning games we would be praising him so works both barrels 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 To be honest I don't care what he says about the fans if he starts getting results. Unfortunately I cant see that happening anytime soon. I think anything less than 4 points and good performances from next two games and he must be finished. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to take something spectacular to get the fans back on side. Were talking like 10 - 15 wins in a row. If he manages it fair play i'll buy him a doner myself.
