Been reading through what I have missed on here, as I expected a lot about Bruce. I see some people are still defending him, fair enough we all have the right to an opinion. What worries me is a lot seem to be viewing the earlier part of the season through rose tinted glasses. Chelsea apart, I missed these games when we played well, some of you talk of! I recall games we scraped wins or draws earlier, even then Bruce's strange tactics worried me. And lets be honest we were pretty lucky to get something out of a lot of them. We weren't killing off teams from good starts then struggling to hold on to what we had for nearly every one of them. Forget the injuries, we have had near full strength teams on the park and looked and played like a very bad Championship team! All this was down to Bruce's tactics (or lack there of ) he makes Lawry Mac look like the best manager who ever lived. If a NE lad can't motivate our team to be up for a game against our greatest rivals not once but twice, then something is sadly wrong! Like I say all opinions, a lot think Ming is better than Gordon. For me Ming has the positional sense of a Goldfish and has to be held responsible for too many goals we have conceded. Do I have an answer? Nope! But I do know Bruce isn't the answer!
