huss9 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Bruce is evil enough to do all he can to stop Jones being seen as successful. Team selection is Bruce's as are the subs, like Andy Carroll coming in for 60 seconds. the split striker shite is jones'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 So Ashley doesn't want to pay off Bruce when he thinks it'll soon be the new owners' problem, his only move was to hire Jones to force the resignation. It didn't work, Bruce won't leave and nobody blinks first until we've drowned. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Eerily similar to when Villa appointed a new coach for him. A brief bounce, then back to shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do people keep posting made up shite with such certainty? In your opinion, probably, possibly etc. but don't be so certain over something you have no fucking idea about.

Barnes23 Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 (edited) We have this man to thank for our PL status being retained this year. Let's hope this is the first year of Ashley's ownership where survival truly signifies something meaningful. Edited May 7, 2021 by Barnes23 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 I was just reading we're W5 - D5 - L5 since he came in as first team coach. As you'd expect, it reads better with Wilson in the side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 20 points in 15 games since he arrived, like. 19 points in 20 before he arrived. We’ve also been without ASM & Wilson for big chunks of the period under Jones’ reign. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BirtleyMag Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 If Wilson and Maxi had have been fit over Feb/March time then we definitely would have picked up wins in the games against Wolves and Villa, possibly against West Brom too. Out attacking play has improved dramatically since Jones came in. Defence still shite mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defence is ok…trouble is there’s been no protection to it from midfield…I mean Shelvey/Longstaff…..like a fox protecting a henhouse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 I'd agree, no coincidence we're a lot better defensively when Hayden is playing. We really need a few CMS in the summer. Hendrick/Shelvey/Longstaff are all not good enough to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, got to be one of the least athletic midfield pairings in the league. It’s no coincidence how much better we looked with Willock starting yesterday. He’s not a defensive midfielder but his liveliness and general pressing helps to relieve the pressure on our defence... and he got his reward for it with the first goal too!
