steve_69 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 When we lose we lose properly. When we lose properly it’s because Bruce has tried to impart some of his managerial genius on the squad. Leave it the fuck alone and we’ll survive. Tinker and we’re fucked!

Guest covmag Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 This one is on Bruce 100%! What a fucking embarrassment! So credit him for the 9th place beforehand I guess then ? I kind of think you have to to an extent, although a lot of it has to do with Rafa’s coaching before him. Pretty telling though that whenever Bruce tries to make any significant changes - system, formation, personnel - we get spanked! So you give him no credit ffs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His biggest stroke of genius so far is realising that our strength is playing like Rafa did. Thats what has seen us succeed so far. Bruce has tinkered with the lineup and system in this game and the result is pretty telling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Can't blame him for everything today as we gave away 3 silly goals which he could do nothing about, his changes were a bit peculiar though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Hope he goes back to the system that’s worked for us. Although I’m not sure Atsu is going to pull off that ASM role ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattoon Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Can't blame him for everything today as we gave away 3 silly goals which he could do nothing about, his changes were a bit peculiar though. You only get that many individual errors in one game when the players are unsure of their role. This is down to coaching. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Nice of him to throw the Longstaff brothers right into the fire, just because one of them scored the winner in the reverse fixture. He honestly doesn’t have a fucking clue of how to manage a team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

While i want to agree, our GK having a weak hand and a piss poor back pass are nothing to do with his coaching tbf, they're just poor individual play. Same as our GK being very good over the last month being down to Bruce's coaching like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemtizz Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Lack of confidence and individuals errors are surely a by-product of a shite manager and a shite system. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Thought it was something of an old pals act for his old team, today. Putting both Longstaff brothers in who are relatively inexperienced was a massive ask for them. Our Boxing Day record is pathetic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Often seems to be the way with ex players (who end up as managers) from that lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate End Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Favourite part of the Bruce post match interview. “We conceded more tonight than we’ve conceded for the last 3 months” That’s not exactly true is it Brucie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
