Let’s not make a crisis out of a drama, I know its a crap end to what looked a promising season and I know we need the injury problem sorted but today.

We had our number 2 keeper in goal.
A lad at RB who in all honesty will be a squad player next season.
A lad at CB who plays RB.
The other CB will be back up if still here.
A RW who will come good but badly needs a holiday.
1 CM who will be gone very soon.
1 CM who will become a legend.
2 in midfield who would be subs normally.
A CF who is blossoming and will be a good player next season, in his proper position.
A bench of kids who may all come good.
A manager who is shell shocked and who can blame him, well plenty can but I don’t.

All I want now is this season to end, some good buys made, the training sorted to cut these injuries out and next season to start.

Am I dissopointed, you bet I am. Am I downhearted, am I buggery, seen far worse.
 
Why have these squad players if they cannot contribute? Hey. We have 11 injured. You're not good enough but go and do a job! FFS they shouldn't be considered! They shouldn't be gettin good money from us if they cant do the job! Dont tell me its because of the injuries - proper cover would mean "so what?" BRUCE HAS TO GO. IFQUINN DONT LIKE IT. TARA NIALL>

I dont agree, sorry
 
What do you think is being discussed right now? "Hey Niall, so you want another £50m of my cash. What for? You want Steve Bruce to have it? err. Meet me in my office tomorrow Niall. We gotta talk."
 
I see your points syd, and totally resepct your opinion, but for me, the whole injury situation may well be Bruce's fault, with even him admitting he will have to have a major look at training programs because they must be doing something wrong, with the ludicrous amount of injuries we've had. He's admitted that he's mad a mistake with all the loan signings and you will have seen for yourself his sometimes questionable tactics. I'm not necessarily saying get rid, but I'm not saying keep him indefinately either. Major questions must be asked by all concerned. Because for me the latter part of the season has been utterly miserable, throw into that our performances against our unwashed geordie cousins and I've almost forgotten about the good things this season.

and I agree but Bruce wont be leaving, whatever we all say, he wont. Rather than get all uptight about it all I'm saying is, lets get the season over and try again. Get it wrong and he will be gone, Bruce has made many mistakes and he has got a lot right, just like balance.
 
So lets give him loads of dosh this close season, lets see him screw it up yet again! Sorry. Ellis Short is our one and only golden egg. He is being shafted by Bruce and - I'm sorry to say - Quinn.

5 stars in your sum book from me excellent essay just waiting for the book, spot on assessment.
 
i wus ****ed in my rep power by 5-1 **** for brains again lads, need some input here, little ****ers hate it when you show them up, the only way they can get you back as they have no intelligence for any other way,
 
Bruce is not worthy. Lets advertise the job - "team with 4 years standing in the premier football division in the world needs supervisor to move said club to top 6 level. purchasing power for the right individual. in excess of of £50m. Intersested?? call Eliss Short now on ..................."

How many times has Bruce taken a team to Europe? How many times has he finished top 6? 7? 8? Are you all really happy with were we are? Bolton, Wigan. Stoke, Birmingham have all had cup finals ffs.! What we had? err. survival. Thanks from all 40,000 of us.
