For fucks sake. Edwards post is as entirely predictable as he thinks the fans response is, he’s basically trying to give Bruce all the plaudits for the win and performance. I don’t see it being a particular stretch to say Jones has had an impact here, we played the same formation as he’d used at one of his former clubs, and Wilson had one of his best games for us, to write all that off and try to act like Bruce deserves 100% of the credit here is a heap of bollocks. Then again I expect nothing less from the bloke, he’s long lost any credibility he has as a journalist after goading the fans over the takeover, and now he’s giving daily hand jobs to Bruce.

I like that even their version of True Geordie is a complete poverty version of ours. They can’t do fucking anything right.

It must be rough going through life being aggravated that much by us. Totally innocuous comment from Humphrey got to him that much. Suppose it’s hard also knowing your team won’t be discussed outside of some channel 5 show they put on at 2am on a Tuesday or something.

Remember when they used to say Cattermole and Colback were better than Cabaye and Tiote?

We better all get writing some letters to Brucey.

I really can’t stand this bloke.

So we are going to be building on a loss at home to a newly promoted side? I suppose it’s true enough that’s basically the pits.

It’s good that Bruce is finally doing things his way mind.

Product of inbreeding that.

1 shot on target in 90 minutes against Villa ffs.

I don’t think it would bother me half as much if the same bunch of cunts hadn’t been telling us Ashley was mint, and questioning why we’d want Saudi involvement a few months ago . We fucking know Ashley is the problem, Bruce took the job with eyes wide open as Benitez was constantly saying we need investment in the facilities and academy, and that we needed to spend more on players, if Ashley wasn’t going to give in to a manager of Benitez’s calibre Bruce would have known he was getting nowt. The thing is even under Ashley Bruce isn’t good enough, we are heading for relegation if this keeps up as we are honestly looking worse by the game.

What can fans of a team who have been outside them PL for just two seasons since the early 90’s expect though?

So when we played this lot in the Championship with Bruce as their manager we comfortably brushed them aside 2-0. Now we’re a distant second best.

What a total heap of fucking crap we are.

Aye, the commentator on my stream kept saying he was behind the ball but it didn’t look that at all to me. Impossible to say he wasn’t in an active area when the Schar only swiped for the ball like that due to Watkins being there.

That kit we are wearing is fucking minging as well . Is there anything good about us under this prat of an owner?

Electric start

Another brilliant take from a twat who is regularly linked to the job. Basically we expect way too much for a club that’s won fuck all, not sure where any of the fans have said they expect to be winning things - I wouldn’t say hoping to win cup games against Championship competition and have a bit of a cup run is too much expectation, neither is wanting to play somewhat competent football. If the Saudis do eventually own us all these fuckers are going to be fuming as they’ll have to come up with a new narrative.

I’m sick of having this arsehole as a manager. If the absolutely dreadful football isn’t bad enough, we have to also put up with the absolute bollocks he spouts when he tries to defend himself. Just constant defeatism, blaming anyone but himself, and general negativity. Twat.

Aye, I understand the assertion that a club might need to hang on and dig out results when first promoted into a new league, but agree this whole happy to be there shite is nauseating. People watch football for entertainment, if it’s fucking dreadful they have every right to complain, I’m not saying we need to be Barcelona but we have to provide some level of entertainment. It’s also a fucking ridiculous assertion that you can only survive in the PL by playing dreadful to watch football unless you’re one of the top sides, the lads in the bottom half of the league are still incredibly talented at the game of football ffs it’s not like there’s some gap that goes Kevin De Bruyne level - rest of the league can’t pass 5 yards. They tie themselves in these knots to protect Bruce, a man who has been mediocre at best everywhere he has been in a long career. Personally it’s wankers like Redknapp acting like the PL is the be all end all that do my head in. As a supporter of a club that never challenges for trophies I’ve no problem being in the championship if it meant we got to watch a more entertaining match, of course I’d love to stay in the PL but if the only way we stay there is watching the crap Bruce is serving up then I’ll take being outside of it (although imo much more of this and we’ll be going down anyway which completely rinses their point). They should start assigning a club to each of these pundits, they can watch other matches but their primary responsibility is to sit and watch all of our matches in a season and report week by week, would they be buzzing about Bruce and saying we should stop whinging when they have to watch 2 hours of that utter fucking shite every week?

Neville clearly watches us so little that he’s not even aware we still have Ritchie in the squad ffs. They just keep re-routing the discussion back to Benitez, I don’t care about Benitez ffs he has no impact on my opinion of Steve Bruce. Bruce is a fucking shite manager, I don’t need to compare him to any of our recent managers to make that argument, we play dire football, we barely get in the opposition area let alone have a shot, and we look all over the map defensively. Even if Benitez was the worst manager we’ve ever had that still doesn’t change the fact Bruce is absolutely bobbins and shouldn’t be managing at the premier league level. Our squad isn’t great, but this new angle where it’s suddenly become the worst squad in the league is pathetic, just 18 month ago tits like Neville were fawning over Fraser and Wilson, Almiron has pace to spare and despite lacking end product can be useful with an actual plan / system, our central defenders are the best group we’ve had in fucking donkeys years (we have had better individuals but never 4 or so that are all at this level), goalkeepers are very good, we’re very weak in CM and the full back positions but most teams in the bottom half mix have weaknesses in positional areas too. Again I’m not saying we have some array of talent, but Bruce isn’t getting close to enough out of what he has, saying if you give him loads of money he’ll do better doesn’t wash as an excuse in a fucking job where the owner is Mike Ashley, this broken nosed cunt knew exactly what he was signing up for and many of these same pundits were acting like Ashley was more than generous with previous managers, Bruce has outspent many of them so which way is it? If we can’t feel aggrieved at watching Bruce’s version of football can we finally be pissed off at having Mike Ashley as owner?

Spot on, my wife goes mental with me whenever I watch the match now as I basically have it muted . In fact she did just that during the Arsenal game and I’d put the sound on just in time to hear the commentator defending Rob Holdings nightmare tackle on Almiron, so I swiftly turned the sound down again. They offer absolutely nothing as you say, and it’s only gotten worse since Bruce is mates with them all as like others have pointed out they’re bending over backwards to give him excuses.

They have to get rid of him now, I’m not saying I expect us to pick up points away to Arsenal but we weren’t even in that game. He will whinge on about how he played more attacking but we fucking didn’t, he put more offensive players on the pitch but there was no plan so we may as well have had 10 defenders on tbh. I don’t particularly rate our team, but they’re better than what they are showing, under this whopper the average players look shite and the shite ones barely resemble football players. It’s at the point, imo, that the longer they delay sacking him they’re just making the inevitable relegation scrap harder. Not sure who to get but this can’t go many more games, I really can’t see where any points are going to come from.

Not sure I like Bruce’s way tbh.
