Bruce is no one's puppet though, remember. If he didn't want to sign this big fucking lummox then he'd have definitely stood up to Lee and Mike and dug his heels in. But he didn't. He went along with it because he's as complicit in this as the pair of them. This is the exact reason they paid to get his from Sheff Wed. He's Bruce's boy. His £40m number 9. Can't run with the foxes and hunt with the hounds.

Still in the cup. Job done.

Correct result but I've got no idea why Rochdale didn't start the game like they ended it. Gave us waaaay more respect than we deserve

Probably broke them laughing during a training session. Brucey is such a laaad, funny as fuck hew.

Checks IP....

First PL side knocked out yet again. Who needs this Cup nonsense when you could be getting dicked in the league instead?

I hope he's had the lazy bastards in over the last couple of days after their surrender against Leicester. Double the laps lads, no excuses.

They’ll already have it the way they’re going you'd suspect. Won't they still only get the trophy on the final day or is it handed over as soon as it's won ? Their final home game I’d imagine?

I could kick Pardew in the face for an entire month and never get bored.

It’s his own fault, he should have rotated his boilers a bit better. Fucking shithouse.

Why even create a video like that? To get likes or to show the world how offended he is about a bloke sticking his fingers in his ears? Absolute thundercunt. He deserves the club he's got.

Now only 3/1 to drop. Plenty of punters piling in I assume.

Hope it’s nothing trivial.

We’re simply starting to get the results our performances have deserved all season. Only so long you can wing it and paper over the cracks, defy the odds and get away with it. Make no mistake, today was the day it started to genuinely crumble , an utterly horrific day and that gormless cunt in the dugout is 100% responsible for it. His dreadful mismanagement of his squad and archaic training methods have caught up with him and there’s nothing to suggest he’s capable of stopping it. He’s got form for this which is why everyone with a brain was up in arms about the appointment in the summer. This has been entirely predictable from day 1, the only surprising thing for me is the fact it’s taken until now for it to happen. We’re fucked.

Best price of 5/1 to go down now. Pile in.

We're definitely throwing this now btw

Still 11th, 25 points on the board, don't see the fuss. Job done.

The day thing is that all the fuckwits will just say its unlucky rather than shocking squad management. Consistently playing blokes who are struggling with knocks and niggles WILL make things worse. He's fucking shit.

This is a fucking shambles. The mismanagement of the squad is pitiful, Bruce is responsible for all of this. Utter prick and shit to boot.

They won't. Remember what they did to Southampton

Looking at the table Ashley will think there's no need to spend so I don't expect anything to happen. However we're about to go into a tailspin soon and by the time a bit of panic sets in the window will have closed and he'll not be able to throw money at Bruce's inadequacies.

He's A negative but they need someone to B positive.

He's 2 pints of blood in a hectic A&E ward. A quick fix that may or may not work.

That is absolutely it in a nutshell. Sometimes it feels like some fans just want to be able to say that they support a premier league club and aren't truly bothered about how the club is run. Ding ding ding ding. Premier League fans.

I'd love to hear that too, he certainly puts the whistle to his mouth well before it hits the back of the net The ball hit the net when he whistled. But there was a Van Dijk handball before the first goal that wasn't checked. Course it wasn't. They might have found it...
