You should never post the day of a game because you may say things you regret later, however. My heart sank at 2.10 when I heard the team, I really did not think he would play Sess in the hole. My head was scratched at the first substitutionSunderpitt turned and asked if I could explain why, well I could see Sess moving to the wing and Richardson inside but I could not explain why Elmo was still there. Sess on one wing and Richardson on the other seemed a better bet. My head and heart sank when Noble came on, 86th minute, what was the point. My ears thought I had miss heard when Bruce said in his radio interview, we need a striker, well that that sorted then. Talk tomorrow.
Bruce took the piss with what could potentially be the best homegrown talent we have had in a long long time. A kid like Noble should of had atleast 30 minutes to try and grab a goal on his debut for the senior team.
Fair points syd. The line where you said 'my heart sank' i think sums up how a lot feel about the team and bruces selections at the moment.
I think around 38,000 fans (or maybe 25,000 at the time of the change as everyone else had pissed off and who can blame them) thought the same as you Syd, however then one man who counts thought it was a viable sub to make. Pointless.
Sess on one wing and Rico on the other should have been there from the start. I was wrong about Catts he had a good game and it was his rep that got him booked. I just cannot even fathom why Elmo is in the squad never mind getting a start. Playing Catts and Jack is a very defensive midfield that lack creativity, is Gardner no good? The biggest Bruce mistake was not playing Ji/Noble with Bendtner, who looked disinterested and spent most of his time out on the wing. Really Bruce has lost the plot totally reverting to a 4-5-1 against Fulham at home it is akin to the 4-6 for the cup game. If Bruce was honourable he would resign, that he doesn't just reflects on his self-serving character
Its beyond a joke now! When i saw the line up i was ****ing fuming man! Bruce is either clueless or having a massive joke with the rivals of his beloved NUFC the ****in tit!
