    I hope some of you have the balls to just absorb this info and then take your time to explain to me what the problem is now.

    Given you said your expectation was top 10 and the fact we're been performing the 10th best for the entire duration that Jones was brought in.


    I suppose you'll now start crying about what went on before that? So what? The problem has been fixed and it's clear.

    Or maybe you'll cry about style of play? How many more goals do you want because we're scoring loads now and have been in some entertaining games.. Yes?

    Or it'll be that Bruce shouldn't have required help? So what whatever they've done works! Also do you realise behind every great manager is a great coach? Clearly not if this is your planned escape

    Average season.
    The last ten games where significantly better than the rest of his tenure. I agree.
    Bruce is not liked because of himself.
    All fans are fickle and want more. That’s natural.
    Takeover happens and we need better.

    Don’t think I have missed anything in my assessment there.

    So when this takeover happens you'd be happy for Bruce to stay?

    The last 19 we were the 10th best side in the league

    That's 9 things you've missed for a start

    That was aimed at Munse, but yeah, anyone can pile in.

    Just interested to see if Roy would keep him on post takeover seeing as though he's done such a good job.
    Just imagine what he could do with more money and better players.
    The next Alex Ferguson perhaps?

    Arise sir Steve <laugh>

    I'd expect a new manager then because it's a different ball park.

    The question is what the problem now? Given I've just madecit clear on a factual basis that since Bruce Brough in Jones nufc is the 10th performing side on the league and 7th best for the last 11 when even without Wilson for 3 of those?

    I think @Darren Peacock's Ponytail hit the nail on the head a few posts back. Just re read that.

    I said the last 10 games was an improvement. Not last 19. The 9 I stated we only won 2.

    And it’s irrelevant now.

    We survived that’s all that matters. Bruce is still a bellend and I don’t want him.

    I couldn’t care less whether his last 19 or 10 or anything we compare: the fact is I don’t want him.

    Hopefully takeover happens and we move on. I’m sick of the plonker.

    No it's not irrelevant

    We've been the 10th best side in the country since Jones was brought in for the entire duration ( half the ****ing season)

    The question I asked was what's the problem now?

    Just answer the god damn questions lol
