    So what part of being a top ten team for the first time in over ten years do you not like?

    Haha, come on man! Finishing 10th was complete luck!

    Ive got no beef at all with finishing 10th mate, just think that under Bruce it wont happen again and well be lucky to stay up!

    If your happy to stay mid table to relegation year after year and not having any kind of a crack at the cups year after year then fine but im not!

    Lucky?? You may call it lucky to lose most of your first team to injury for half a season. I wouldn't.
    As for mid-table finishes...I dreamed of a steady mid-table finish only a few short years ago. Shows how much our expectations have been raised by Bruce don't you think?
    Just for the record. IMO we wont be anywhere near relegation come May.

    I've highlighted the key word here, that's just your opinion!

    I'm far from a BIB (fence sitter leaning towards BOB) but the fact is he has steadily improved us year on year. Our squad is far from awful, yes we've had a shaky start but it's still far too early to judge. I could say I think under bruce we will win our next 10 games 5-0 and qualify for the cl but it wouldn't mean a thing.. I think we should give him the next three games and see where we are after that..

    For the record, after Stoke, Norwich and Brom, I will be:

    9 points - BIB
    4-7 points - still sitting on my fence
    3 points or less - BOB

    The part where I only see 1 win in 9 games for my £430 investment matey, along with the other missing 1000's who have abandoned the Bruce management regime.

    If you are right and we are now a comfortable top 10 team and everything is rosy at the club, why do you think the crowd on Saturday, against a top team, was under 37,000? What are the missing 1000's not seeing that you clearly are with Bruce?

    Pray tell.

    Credit crunch maybe. Just a thought.

    Funny that, I thought we're only six points off a champions league place.

    Why look down when we are clearly heading up?
