I'm not sure what Bruce was watching for the first half hour but it definitely wasn't our match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammynb 3357 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 (edited) I hope fatty is sitting at home looking at how well he spent his pennies and his arse is starting to pucker at the thought of lost premier league revenue - cunt. Bruce 4 million in compensation to Wednesday. Joelinton 40 million in transfer fee and probably 60k+ a week ASM 20 million in tranfer fees and probably 60k+ a week Almiron 30 million in transfer fees and probably 60k+ a week - Bruce is killing him and under Rafa he at least knew what he was doing Carrol on 20k a week and probably a couple of million in sign on fee. And he could have kept Rafa for less than Bagpuss' compensation, 16 milllion for a proven goal scorer and control of the transfer decisions - which would have lead to the clearing out of the shite. There might be three teams currently worse than us but they won't sit on their hands like the fat cunt leaving it all to late.

thebrokendoll 9244 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 i'd find it very difficult to believe there's 3 worse teams in the entire football league based on the second half yesterday. beyond woeful and the first half was only marginally better due to wolve's abject display. would be astonished if our £40m striker (cough) betters joselu's 17/18 season haul of 4 goals. we're fucked and that's exactly what ashley deserves. loads of empty seats to be seen though, i liked that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also blames the players for being too negative with it being down to them being too used to parking the bus tactics. This shit does also get uncritically endorsed by Ryder.

But he is getting away with it because he is a decent bloke. It does seem to be a masterstroke by Penfold and Ashley to appoint a manager too many journalists are reluctant to criticise because of their cordial relationships.

essembeeofsunderland 811 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Some journalists will turn, his pals in the media won't. Was it his or the players idea to defend 30 yards from goal with 45 minutes still to play. The way Sean Longstaff hoofed the ball into the corner to waste time after a free kick had been given suggested to me he was looking to get booked,then came his brain dead high challenge with his studs up giving the ref no option but to show him a red card.

David Kelly 1245 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 It wasn't a particularly bad challenge but he lost control which was why his foot went up at the end caught the player.
