"After watching it (the tackle that led to the penalty)back, I think it is the right decision but it was a charade for VAR to give it. In my opinion this needs to be addressed. 

 

"We did turn it around. We didn't play anywhere near good enough in the first half. Second half we showed much better to get on the ball to have the courage to go forward and play forward. It was much better second half. 
 

"In my opinion we have taken the lead twice and deserved to go on and win it. We've now given three penalties away and it's cost us badly. 
 

"You are always at your most vulnerable when you score. We have scored with two or three minutes to play and haven't seen it through. That's disappointing - of course it is - but the decision has gone against us. We just have to take it and stop making these decisions that give penalties away.

What actual planet is this Leviathan of long ball football from ?

Old Trafford will be a bloodbath. Only consolation for him being it might not be as ruthless as normal due to a few being rested after International duty, coasting a bit and getting Ronaldo bedded in fully. Not that they're not capable of dismantling this squad HE'S put together mind, if they want 6 or 7 they'll get them. (1 point out of 12)

 

Followed by Leeds at home. Bielsa will hand this fat wanker his own arsehole on a platter, they'll press and counter attack at will, no secret we look completely unfit and he'll exploit that in the last 10 mins of each half particularly. (1 /15)

 

Wolves away - a point at best. (1/2 out of 18)

 

Spurs at home - loss. Kane and Son are too much for this lot (Looking at 1/2 out of 21)

 

After that it's a question of how long do you give him? How bad does it need to get? Palace away followed by Chelsea at home, could very easily be looking at 1 or 2 points from 24 or 27, it's not unrealistic at all.

Trying to work if there any managers that I'd prefer to have Bruce over.  I'm not convinced I can think of one.  Maybe Pulis?  But even that's a stretch.  At least Kinnear would offer some comedic value.

At least Pulis would go into each game with a plan.

Howe is a no brainer. Even for him. Could come here for 2 seasons, sort out Bruce's mess and leave in a better place. Jones will become boss though.

 

You're probably right, but like fuck am I convinced on Jones as a coach and certainly not as a manager.

I'm not the biggest fan of Almiron, but even though I'm not, it's so obvious that playing him in that midfield position, is making him totally anonymous on the pitch and looking like a headless chicken. We all know about Bruce and his sunday league management skills, but what the fuck is Jones playing at also.

 

 

 

exactly, i think even jones has lost any credit he initially had. seems to be strikers coach and nowt else. he must be as tactically clueless as bruce and the other steves.

I remember Rob Lee was far from impressed when he came, as his son was under him at Luton. As I said, we know Bruce is a sunday league manager, but questions have to be asked on Jones also. We look totally disjointed all over the field.

Had us sitting defending our 18 yard box for the whole game, with no pressing from the midfield. Pathetic. 
 

Thing is - it’s nothing new. It’s been like this for the last 3 seasons. 

“His way”

I’m in the same boat as this. He’s been here nearly a year now and we’ve not really improved since the first couple of games he was here.

It’s a sad inditement that I was more pleased with Southampton’s equaliser than our potential winner.


I hate Ashley and everything he brings (or doesn’t) to this football club. But boy, is my hatred special for Bruce.

 

At least with Rafa I was able to see past Ashley and enjoy Newcastle again. There was a plan, a purpose, a desire to do better.

 

Bruce is the opposite. He’s happy to leech off the club, be Ashley’s mouthpiece and suck every piece of ambition out of the place. His pathetic football and lack of ability leads to a disease on the eye.

 

I’m happy for us to lose every single game until this scumbag is out of a job. If that pushes us too far and relegates us, so be it. That’ll then give Ashley what he deserves too.

Every word of this is me.

 
Was driving up the A1 and my mate was updating me on the scores, I was actually angry when I found out Maxi had scored. Cushion heed’s luck has ran out. About the only thing about him that has ever run by the looks it.

Is that not a bit bias because he didn’t think they were Championship standard though? Similar to how Mick Quinn doesn’t particularly like Keegan?

Aye. If we’re going to be a lower mid-table team we might as well at least try and look good like Southampton & Brighton.
