Collage Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Needs binning but who the fuck would take this job atm who's any good? We have a canny squad with a garbage manager. Eddie Howe was mentioned, I don’t think he’s the answer but I’d definitely take him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Whoever comes to work under (not just Mike Ashley, but a) Mike Ashley who is desperate to leave the club, can only - by default - be a grateful shithead like Bruce. So I would say that switching the manager at this point would be a pointless exercise, especially given that we'll be nowhere near the relegation zone by May.

ScottishMagpie Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Oh thank fuck. That it explains everything. Stupid me! Mountains?!! People go climb mountains every fucking weekend. Some of them are pretty big fuckers as well. Difference is they go climbing having studied the fuck mound of rock, have a plan and are properly equipped. I've been quite indifferent about this season since the takeover went into life support mode but today he's really fucking pissed me off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 You basically have two options, an old has been desperate for a pay day (bruce), or a young manager unproven and willing to work under his shit restrictions but might produce good football. He won't ever go for the second one Because that would need a DOF who actually knows the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I reckon we'll be several points clear, as we were last time. West Brom, Fulham, Villa, Burnley, Leeds and West Ham will all finish below us imo - maybe even someone like Sheffield United too. Possibly even Brighton themselves. We'll shit our way to lower-mid-table like we did last year thanks to the talent in the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce will revert to ultra defence, and we'll pick up enough wins to stay clear just about. Wilson, Carroll and Gayle when he's fit should be good for getting the odd winner now and then.

Thorpinho Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Feels very similar to the pardew years and one frustrating thing in particular...i remember feeling most weeks that we had a better line up available especially in attack (not sure but often not playing the potentially good combo of cisse, ba, ben arfa etc. )Going into this season you think yeah asm/wilson/almiron/fraser - but got that same depressed feeling that those players wont line up especially almiron Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
