He's taking the mick a bit isn't he? The amount he's blown on dross so far, I'd give him nowt! He'll still get a lot more than Partridge does tho, despite Pie Boy having 35 million snots under his matress.
Dross? we were 5th-6th at christmas and playing some great stuff (apart from our match). Ok the wheels have come off, but we are still only 2 points off 10th place.
off course he's gonna ask for big money, he needs it to build a team, thing is short will probably give him it, unlike pukka pie, up the road, he'll be investing in spurs shares, and partridge will get a small amount....
10 years, at last someone admits we have been more successful than Newcastle, just a few months ago for us
We were up there earlier in the season too, but for once we were realistic and new it wouldn't last. Your lot were busy renewing their passports ready for Yewrope
iv'e already got my passport, in fact it's my 2nd one in 4 years, what with travelling and visa's, must admit, we were being optimistic about EUROPE this year, oh well always next season.....
All the money he's spent on dross?! Again as mentioned in previous articles.. His net spend on transfers over two years is not really very big. And no, that's not all the money we've spent, it's the NET SPEND- because when we sell players, our owner and chairman let us use it to buy new ones.
I've never been sure he did buy much dross. Those players were fine before Xmas. What he did was deploy them badly. Bruce can't solve problems when we hit them, and just chucks players in anywhere and hopes for the best. It hasn't worked - twice.
You miss the point of Cutybuns post Chris. Players play where the manager tells them to and to the tactics that the manager sets. It's not a players fault if he doesn't come up to scratch, playing in an unfamiliar position, or position that doesn't suit that particular individual. You've only got to look at one player for evidence of this, Jordan Henderson, who was woeful in central midfield, a position that SB had him playing in week after week. We all knew that Hendo could not play in that position, but bizarrely, SB just couldn't see what we could see! We've all seen that when Bruce's plan 'A' is not working, there doesn't appear to be a plan 'B'. As for injuries?.....I'll give you that.
