    The sooner we get a statue up to sir Steven Bruce the better.
    Perfect world
    We scrape through under warnock to the end of the season.
    Brucey walks away from the geordies at the end of the season.
    The allams or hopefully new owners install Sir Steven in as the new manager to continue the superb Work he started here.
    The fans come flooding back
    Happy Days amundo

    These few lines from Buckingham are absolutely spot on - especially the bottom one.

    ''They were the side with discipline, control and bravery. All three of those qualities have abandoned City, who instead have become fragile and aimless.

    Shoulders continue to sink lower across this injury-depleted group. Heads, too, drop at the first sign of adversity.

    Stoke were like playground bullies, intimidating an opponent that had nowhere to turn for help.

    “The biggest thing that’s hurt me is the fact is that we got outmuscled,” said McCann. “We got bullied. They got on top of us for a 10 or 15 minute spell and we couldn’t cope physically.”

    City are certainly no dogs of war. Recruitment strategies have packed the squad with youth, gradually shedding all experience of this level in the last two seasons.

    Young heads are now spinning, McCann’s included''

    You have memories and a changed history to show for it. Same as every other football fan.

    Pretty unfair. This was his match report,,not designed to be an opinion piece as such but even so he does comment on the lack of fight. I think we're pretty lucky to have Phil Buckingham as a local reporter. Feel he has called the team and the owners out quite a lot recently.

    Oh fair enough if that was his match report, didn't realise that. Buckingham is good for sure, maybe we'll get a separate harder hitting opinion piece, not that it will make a blind bit of difference. I just want the Allams, and more quickly, McCann, gone. We're going down without a change. My business partner is a Charlton fan so that should be interesting.

    The thrown in comment on 34 seconds about Ince made me laugh my cock off.
