    Not arguing against that but to use the boro manager as an example of a good manager when he's been responsible for such a collapse doesn't help your point.

    Half decent manager, not a good manager.

    Dyche is a good manager.

    Bruce is a poor one.

    4 goals in the last 9 games says it all, if you don't score goals it is impossible to win games.....FACT

    We might scrape play-offs and at this rate, we'd get our arses kicked in the semis. I've lost patience with Bruce; he always has some ****ty excuse for his appalling management. We won't get promoted this season and I'll be glad to see the back of him. One too many ****-ups.

    Me bad. Just kicked the dog. Been like this for weeks mate. Defensively sound,midfield blows hot or cold. Very lightweight and predictable upfront and it's killing us.

    The opposition is irrelevant . There are 9 games left for more incipid , uninspiring football. There may as well be 40 games left. We can't score and we are boring.

    If only one of those 10 shots on goal had gone in.

    Hard luck stories only have so much mileage.

    ****ing Hell - we've lost to another dogshite side. Can't we sign someone who actually can hit a ****ing barn door. We might make the play offs if we are lucky but I'm starting to think I wouldn't mind another season in the championship. What's better - Be in the top 6 of the championship and see a lot more wins or be in the bottom 6 of the PL and expect to lose most weeks?
    It's only the massive amount of £££££ on the table that tips the balance in favour of the PL - but as I say it will be through the play offs now if we get there.

    Everyone blames the manager because he's got such a good squad and isn't achieving what's expected of them.

    Has anyone ever considered that these so called superstars are massively underperforming, if they put away the simple chances we score goals and we win games.

    Sure Bruce has got his tactics wrong at times this season but there's no excuse for players of that quality making the wrong decisions and failing to take chances, Bruce will be as frustrated as we are when that happens, it's completely out of his control.

    "Football" and "Hull City" are not synonymous at the moment.

    It's Bruces job to drill it into them to do the right thing. A one off maybe but it's happened week after week for years. Face it, he's a poor manager.

    Wonder where his motivation is? If I had a spare million id probably just give up on footy as a bad job.

    They do that because they're not very good. Bruce signed strikers who aren't good enough. He thought Akpom's ability was frightening. That's what's cost us.

    For the amount of control we have in many games, we don't actually create that many chances for me. How many tonight ? 1 or 2 tops....with the Elmo and Snodgrass chances being the only ones to stand out. Didn't deserve to lose tonight, and we clearly looked a better side than Boro, but we still didn't create enough, leaving us open to a sucker punch. Still not out of the promotion race for me, but we need a different option up front to give Hernandez more support and give us a focal point to the attacks.
