    You just said in this thread that I said I said no criticism is due. correct?

    I've never said that and refuted it.

    Are you going to retract that false claim.

    You've proven you don't even understand what my position is.

    Here it is.

    ?

    You can either retract it or admit you don't even understand the position of your opposition.

    I'm not wound up im pointing out that have made a false claim and that you either

    1.Don't understand the position of the person you're debating with
    2.don't have the decency to retract it.

    Essentially I've defeated you

    Slight deviation to the takeover but a pattern seems to be developing in our games.

    We always seem to play reasonably well in the first half and fade to **** in the second half of games.

    Is it just me thinking this?

    No, the players aren't fit enough, pre-season is a joke. What will gradually happen is the league games will have a positive impact on fitness (though we run a higher than average risk of soft tissue injury), so by around Xmas we should be able to keep a level.

    The tactics also don't help, big onus on long, rapid runs up field rather than effective use of the ball to transition quickly.

    This isn't a Bruce bash, it's a fact that he is almost entirely responsible for these two problems.

    We rely on almiron willock and max sprinting around which tires you out faster than running.

    When they get tired the back up isn't there

    It's because every game the players are hoping Bruce will have resigned or been sacked by the time the half time whistle blows. When they find the useless bastard's still there they are completely deflated for the second half.

    The players in particular Saint Maximin have said they love Steve bruce

    That myth was cleared up once again last week on sky TV.

    The ritchie fall out was blown out of proportion by the journalist after all it appears.

    Course they love him - sad news is that they are clearly wasters themselves.

    You know full well our players lack fitness.
    Steve Bruce gives then too much time off which the players love.
    Unfortunately this shows them to be wasters.
    If I was a "top" player I would be putting the effort in on my own time. The majority of our players are clearly not.
