    I don’t like Steve bruce. I think he’s a bellend.

    I can’t wait to see him leave when the takeover goes ahead.

    This is like a therapy session.

    1. Define “fans”. How many are you talking about?
    Every single fan. You’re wrong. Majority of fans possibly right. Significant minority you’re probably right.

    2. Define “fans”. Define “for years”. Are you suggesting the football wasn’t bad?

    3. Define “fans”. Are you suggesting the football wasn’t bad?

    4. Bruce didn’t bring in Jones. That’s simply a figment of your imagination. No one knows who decided we needed the extra coach. Define “fans”.

    5. Almiron wasn’t injured in this game. He played in the next games. Not clear about what your point is supposed to be.

    6. Correct. Including you.

    7. Correct.

    8. Correct and “the fans” are also correct.

    Ultimately not sure what those points have to do with my points. It’s like my saying Newcastle scored 2 goals against Fulham and that proves I’m correct. It doesn’t. You also bandy the word “fans” around in support of your points but without any context. It could mean 2, it could mean 20, it could mean all. Without context it means nothing.

    I have set out my position previously you need to address my points if you wish to debate the issues with me as so far you haven’t even touched upon them.

    Come on chaps can we all just agree that Bruce is a bellend, did an average job, played **** football, abused the fans, lied and is a crap manager overall.

    Ah this therapy abuse is ****ing epic.

    I said don't tap dance and you've done exactly that! Over 90% of nufc fans..

    What do you require a list of 50k names lol...

    Bruce didn't appoint Jones? What's your evidence for that claim? We have two people saying he did and that's Bruce and Jones himself.

    So it was max Wilson and schar shortly followed by Almiron?? No problem then and no reason for a decline?.. Desperate


    I've concluded that you've desperately ignored the points I presented because you're quite simply not reasonable

    No I don't agree

    I think we've been playing some good stuff recently and taken a good amount of points in that time.. We've also scored alot of goals.

    You're basically trying to say let's all agree he's done a **** job and I don't agree.. I think he's done ok.

    This abused the fans thing is a load of crap also... They've abused him from day 1..

    Hopefully we get the takeover, but otherwise I'm sure we'll stay up anyway.

    My money is on another reasonable finish

    I'm not stupid I know I'm not going to win any friends here, but I can't be bothered with bullshit and the fans are talking ****e right now.

    During the bad spell I wanted him gone, but guess what hes done very well since and I was wrong.

    He also did very well before that bad run and I defended him then.

    This is clearly evidence that I give an honest review based on how a manager is currently performing.

    What you're doing is like putting a staff member on a performance review and then when they over achieve the targets you've set you're just saying **** them.

    You have to wait

    I haven't posted in ages but your take is ridiculous.

    1. The fans said we'd go down because the football, both stylistically and statistically was relegation football in all but points. I think most fans gave him the benefit of the doubt based on him coming in late etc. But let's not forget, when appointed he promised front foot, attacking football and in no way did he bring that last season.

    2. The football was ****, let's call a spade a spade on that front. No real fan said we'd rather lose 4-3 than win ugly. That is a national media stereotype.

    3. Pre covid Almiron was benched in favour of Hendrick and ASM was on the verge of being dropped (it was widely reported he was going to be dropped for the Palace game before pulling out injured/ill). The rot was set in long before the covid outbreak.

    4. I actually agree with you to a degree but if Jones wasn't/isn't the biggest reason for our improvement why wasn't Bruce able to get us playing how we have been these last 6 weeks prior to Jones' appointment?

    5. Pre Southampton we were already in the ****, with no injuries. That win was actually a huge win but again form was terrible before our big hitters got injured.

    6. Fans called for him to go because prior to our big players getting injured we'd been ****. Almiron and Wilson were fit for nearly all of the "2 wins in 21 games" period.

    7. Bruce reverted to 5 at the back (something he repeatedly said he didn't want to do) because he was unable to implement a productive game plan with a back 4. To his credit, results and performances improved but I would say this purple patch has been the exception in his tenure and not the norm.

    8. He's achieved his/the clubs goal whilst producing some of the most turgid football imaginable whilst simultaneously insulting fans for criticising the style of football. Is it any wonder some want him gone?

    Sometimes you just to have to accept that.....

    Everybody's wrong everybody's right
    Someone must be wrong when someone else is right
    Everybody's wrong everybody's right
    You tell me that I'm wrong
    Then you tell me that I'm right
