    He had a spell of only 3 or 4 games there last season, bagged 2 or 3 goals, single handedly beat Blackpool, then got thrown straight back into either left back or out the team (can't remember which it was)

    On saturday it looked as if Rico wanted to play in the centre anyhow he was rarely of the wing, also I thought he was now employed as LB??. But we really do have a 'cupboard bare' if Ji and Ryan are not good enough to partner Bendtner, after it was proved yet again that Sess cannot work 'in the hole' how many times does SB have to see it to recognise it. I despair of the current occupant of our managerial seat. Also how many times does he have to see it to realise it two defensive central midfielders means we will not score goals and will not win any games. I am so frustrated with SB

    I thought Bruce said as late as the end of last season that he thought KR could become an England LB? We all knew that was bollocks but I genuinely thought he meant it. So why has he now been dropped from that position and moved to left wing (his only position for me) only to now be the answer to our striking crisis - a place to be fair he can play but as an emergency not first choice when we have capable strikers on the bench? Will Richo really be better at finishing than Ryan Noble? He isnt a natural striker but Noble is. End of.

    Is this bloke REALLY the best manager we can get at the moment?

    We have Ji & Noble chomping at the bit and in Noble; we have a striker that is hot - 4 goals in 2 games and a hat trick. He is 20 years old now not 16 or 17 and what’s this ****e about filling out? He is NEVER going to be a Connor Wickham just as Ian Rush wasn’t or Michael Owen. Noble is a quick, tricky striker who loves scoring goals. FFS play the lad you thick pig headed arsehole.

    I think he is doing this on purpose now just to be a total twat. I wonder if he has a spread bet to see how many players he can actually play out of position in a game. If he plays Bendtner on his own, with either Richo or Sess as the '2nd striker', I truly hope we get beat and get rid of the bloke at 5pm Saturday night. We can’t go on limping along and not winning games at home and we have a manager now who is not only treading water but rather sinking now.

    I watched MoN on ITV last night and wondered how good we could be under his managership. It’s got to breaking point with Bruce and even in a MUST win game, he is not prepared to change his negative thinking and go 4-4-2. If his job is safe he has nothing to lose by going for the game. If he has this game to save his ass then again he has nothing to lose by going for it.

    By being so negative and **** scared of losing, he actually encourages the defeat. We should put Wigan to the sword. We should beat them easily if we have progressed according to Bruce and his supporters, as they are not Man City. They are in fact a shower of ****e and no amount of heaping false praise on them from Bruce will change that. They are this seasons whipping boys and failure to beat them convincingly, or indeed beat them at all, will mean we are worse than them imo.

    Agreed.

    Why not play a winger on the wing (McClean) and a striker as a striker (Noble) a midfielder in the middle (Vaughan, Gardener) and a utlity (in the broadest sense of the word) player on the bench if required.
    Richardson again proved that he is SB's rent boy with an ineffective display on the wing. He hit the bar last week so SB sees him as a goalscorer once again. FFS. I (almost) give up.

    Richardson had a very bright opening 15 mins, was unlucky not to score when he hit the bar but for me, dissapeared for the majority of the rest of the game. He doesnt play with the same spirit and enthusiasm as he once maybe did and I think its because he has been ****ed around that much by Bruce he has lost faith and heart as well as the supporters.

    We were so pedestrian for large parts of the game against Fulham and didnt show the kind of drive and ambition required by a team struggling at the bottom. When I look at Wigan and Blackburn for instance, I still see them battling and fighting for the whole 90 mins. They may still be in relegation places but I can see Wigan out working us on Saturday. I dont see some of ours doing it for Bruce.

    Have the players lost faith in him too? I guess we shall see on Saturday?

    Well, a lot of us said to give SB 12 games. Here we are!! Like you say Cest. Blackburn have been giving it a go and been a little unlucky. Wigan were robbed last week with a crazy decision from the corner and should have got the three points.
    Last chance saloon. I can vision short polishing the old Smith and Western at this very moment.
