    I guess if the worst case scenario happens, those are the type of players who would serve us well in the Championship.

    Steve Bruce can't manage his players.

    McShane, Ben Arfa, even Fryatt refused to stay... Who next?

    To be honest I don't think either Bruce or McShane are premier league standard.

    Why isn't Davies being offered a new deal then?

    Is he really offering Meyler a new deal? Elmo, Chester, Brady, Quinn and Rosenior aside, I don't think any of the other Championship old guard deserve a new contract, we can replace them with better players for a lot less.

    He has more composure and reads the game better (Bruce), the ones having a go at him are generally the type of idiots abusing the manager

    and we were beating Arsenal till Bruce came on - we were playing utter **** at QPR until Bruce went off - we scored 5 minutes later - Fulham last season is a great example - losing 2 0, Bruce off and we draw 2 2 - Bruce is by far the worst defender in the Prem, he only plays because of his dad - no other Prem manager has ever wanted him - he never started any of the cup games last season - it was Faye or Macca - yet for the final his dad gives him a cup final on his cv - it's a total ****ing disgrace - I've been a season ticket holder for years but this will be the last season if his dad gives him a job again - I refuse to pay to watch the worst example of nepotism ive ever seen

    Want to actually read that article? There were a number of extenuating circumstances for why Bruce was recalled from that loan.

    You rattle off a bunch of games where him coming on or off changed the game - which in itself is a ridiculous notion. For instance Davies was at fault for the Arsenal equaliser, and we were **** in midfield against QPR, Quinn coming on had more to do with the change in momentum - but how about the FA Cup Final? After he got injured what happened?

    his stupid diving in was responsible for their first - he gave them momentum - he had to leave Birmingham for Ipswich because of all the accusations of nepotism

    I've a little sympathy for Bruce (Jr) and he's not as bad as some make out but I do get pissed off with this "he was ace in the Cup final" malarkey - he made a **** challenge that gifted them the free kick for the first goal. I'd say that was pretty ****ing calamitous regardless of how well he played after he presented them with their opening goal.

    No, you know who presented Arsenal with their opening goal? Allan McGregor with his ****ty keeping from free kicks.

    If Bruce had stuck with Harper in goal I reckon we would have won.

    Who was the best striker in the Premiership last season ?. And who kept him quiet at the KC in a 3-1 win. Bruce Jnr will always have his critics but what you see is what you get. What he lacks in ability he makes up for in effort , courage & determination , admittingly those traits are not always enough in games but to label him the worst defender in the Premiership is disrespectful to him to say the least. I would rather have a player who is 100% committed every week then someone who isnt.
