This guy is a proper antidote for poor form, Plymouth had lost their first four games of the season, conceding 9 goals in the process, locals where getting restless, Bruce rocks up, and give them a clean sheet and 3 points.

 

He's a gentleman really, always thinking of others :lol:

Blackpool have conceded 12 goals, the most in the league.

“I can’t say that the team gave up on it, however, defensively we haven’t improved so far,”

 

“I have to analyse myself and my coaches, and ask the question of how we can improve. We’re not getting much of a response at the minute because the goals we are giving away are poor, and that’s been our Achilles’ heel since I walked through the door."

 

“We can keep banging on about it. We’ve still got a week to go (of the transfer window), so can we improve our squad. We’ve brought in two centre halves, two new goalkeepers and two midfielders, but it doesn’t seem to have changed anything just yet."

 

“We will keep bashing away at it, and hopefully we’ll come through this frustrating thing for all of us. Trying to keep a clean sheet is a big, big problem for us."

 

“It doesn’t get any easier but I’ve seen signs today that we were better than what we have been. We had a few people back which can always help us, but of course we’re missing our two strikers which is always going to be difficult."

 

“Unfortunately, we’ve not been able to improve defensively, and not just the defenders or the goalkeeper - I’m talking about the whole team. We’ve got to be better defensively as a team, and it’s something that nagged away at me last year."

 

“This year the frustration is there for all of us, we’ve given a poor goal away two minutes after half time."

 

“You can say anything you want at half time, but we’ve conceded again straight after. It’s a poor goal, we should’ve defended better than what we did."

 

“As an ex-defender the frustration is I haven’t been able to make an impact because we concede far too many. I know we play with two wide players and two strikers, and that might put too much of a demand on us, but I’ve done that in the past and we’ve done okay defensively."

 

“We have to be better as a unit because we haven’t improved much. I’m never going to come out and criticise individuals, I’ve never done it, but as a team we have to be better, and today there were two or three involved in the goal who should’ve done better with the situation."

 

“We don’t seem to have that know-how of spotting that little bit of danger.”

Reminds me of us losing away to Sheff Utd and didn't we play Jeff Hendrick as a "false 10" whatever that means

Thank God we're so far away from this

Newcastle United suffered the ignominy of being the first team to lose to Sheff United this season. Bruce said

 

"That was my thinking, playing Ryan Fraser and Sean Longstaff as two false number 10s instead of Miguel Almiron and Big Joe."

Steve Bruce was asked today if any boss could be successful under Ashley…

“What do you gauge as success?
“I gauge success last year as matching Rafa’s tally of points.
“He was a world-class manager.
“Where did he finish (10th and 13th)?
“Is that success?
“We matched the mighty Rafa.”

 

 

It's been a frustrating summer but never forget how far we've come

Had a look at their forums after Gayle had his rant and they were piling into him, defending Bruce.

 

Now the forums all want him gone after only one win this season. Apparently he's picking the same favourites despite performances, and playing a central midfielder at right-back. 😂

Multi millionaire hogging jobs that could be used by an upcoming coach to get a foot on the ladder.

 

Behind Owen this bloke is the most selfish man associated with NUFC.

 

Oh, and Isak can fuck off aswell

I'll hear about it on the news. They will be covering the Blackpool fans turning on him and citing anything but his managerial record as a justification, like they did with us I presume. Just I missed the West Brom, Villa and mackem additions.
