    The problem is people spend ages telling me why the questions are crap, but they have answered them and believe me I've got the screenshot for the day they do.

    You credited Bruce the others and especially the ones who've argued for months haven't

    I never resorted to abuse, but did throw plenty of criticism his way. Criticism I believe he deserved. I also acknowledged he had done as well as Rafa in terms of results in his first two seasons and that some of the things he was criticised for (not all) were things Rafa did without as much criticism. I also believed he was a hopeless manager who would never take us forward.

    Again if you look through this thread the entire argument from me was that I would criticise when the side wasnt getting results, but also that of credit when it was doing well.

    People wouldn't do it and I pressed fwd.

    You actually are agreeing with me and share the same view

    My first question is. Is Howe doing any better than Bruce so far? Yes or No. no other words needed.

    I'll level with you

    Start on page 1 and it'll become clear that all I've ever done is credit where it was due and take exception to people not doing so.

    That's just the kind of **** I am im afraid

    I've also said fair enough to the guys that just said dick Bruce he's a **** whatever he does.

    The slight difference is that I believe he deserved some criticism even when the results were good. There was a lot of fortune about a lot of our good results in that period. Performance wise we were not playing well for those two seasons. However, we did get the results to survive and that was probably the only target that Ashley had given him.
