  1. The commentators said the other day that both Sheff United and Newcastle were firm favourites for relegation at the start of the season, despite that being utter bollocks. We were actually 9th favourites for relegation, but it's being used to justify Bruce doing a great job.
  2. That's quite literally it. A fair comment. Ideally our next appointment is a manager who's never had to rely on luck to win games of football. Ever. Yeah, that's exactly what people are saying. Many having a pop at Bruce for relying on luck for some results. Looks like luck is frowned upon. I dont mind how we win personally but each to their own. Now this is where I differ. I've always preferred to enjoy watching football. Winning dirty (or luckily) every single time we win just isn't enjoyable, especially considering how shit we are when we draw or lose. Some of Rafa's football was exactly the same early on, and I remember being criticised on here for having a negative view on it (I do understand why he did it, before anyone goes back to that). But he found a formula which started to make us worth watching again. Maybe Bruce has found that too, I don't know, but there's nothing on his CV to suggest that we're suddenly going to become a really good team to watch under him. We won't, because Bruce's crap. He'll be gone at the end of the season. I'm not arsed how we win, I don't give a crap about "xG" stats or anything alike. As long as we win, I don't care. I'm not going to lose sleep over how we had to rely on Dubravka to make X amount of saves in order for us to get a result. As I stated, that's where we differ, and probably why we have different views on how Bruce has done this season. I can accept that you're a "win above all" type guy though.
  3. It feels like every journo under the sun is suddenly tweeting positive things based purely on the piracy stuff that came out yesterday. I'm not convinced, still, that any of them have any information. Yeah I'm sort of leaning that way a bit. Feels like they've made the same connection fans have to the piracy news, not necessarily heard anything. But I'd love to be wrong What other connection could there be though? This may be quite negative, but what if they have intially failed the tests? And this tougher stance on piracy and buying up shares in BT etc. Is a sort of look at us cleaning up our act. Prem looks better for denying it in light of quite obvious issues, Saudi go away and do all the necessary changes for a smoother process for prem etc. Like I say, pretty wild and negative outlook but too many times have we seen every reporter jump on any any bit of news and the deal was as good as signed months ago. "Go away, tidy up your act, we'll let you buy Man United next year". That type of thing?

  6. Nobody responds to you (except this one) because your patter is shite! Only took you a few days for your comeback, which sadly is pretty much what I said to you. 3/10, try harder.
  7. I love watching us. We’re almost Man City these days. Bruce has done an amazing job after Rafa made us so shit.
  8. Of course it’s a red card. Why the shock from the commentator?
  9. He’s a good character to have around the club. Makes up for his utter shitness these days apparently
  10. Keane’s saying he would be punching him
  11. Btw, it’s ace without the crowd noise on.
