    Cards on the table I reckon January 2nd.

    We'll have drawn at home to Everton on 28th December and then lost at home to Leicester to leave us mired in the relegation zone. With the transfer window opening we'll ditch Bruce in get in someone like Alan Curbishley or Paul Lambert. Then we'll do worse.

    he’s here for the season bare minimum. Even if we are cut adrift at the bottom at Christmas. Unless a miracle happens and we are bought out by real oil sheiks

    No way would it be the 2nd Jan unless we have been taken over. Cashley wouldn’t sack him regardless of results until late January so as to not give any new manager time to find the line.

    End of Jan, just as the window slams shut. Then Fat Sam negotiates a £6M a year deal, and tells the press its his spiritual home.

    Or, well above the 18th position of this January 2nd. Having possession percentages in the high forties. Playing sexy 442. Non boycott crowds loving the revolution. Oh and, nearly forgot, some kind of cup run.

    I geninely think he's gonna be here for a while. Years even.

    I just don't think we are relegation fodder.

    The reward for keeping us up next season will be one of them tasty 8 year contracts.

    I thought the legendary AB was back, but, no, a fake it would appear.

    Anyone saying pre Xmas has not learnt a thing. As a minimum it will be post any January window. I expect a similar amount of time as McClaren. i.e. not quite enough for any new manager to stop the rot.

    If indeed he does struggle that badly. We have a squad capable of staying up in my opinion, so there are zero excuses in that regard. Same as I said for Rafa when people were saying it wouldn't have been his fault if we'd went down. Yes it ****ing would because we don't have one of the 3 worst squads in the division.

    Lets give Bruce a chance to **** it up first. I mean I don't rate him at all and think this will end badly, but I'll back him to start with as its a clean slate.
