Surely its all Phelans fault? When we won a few when he first came in it was cos of him. So now it must be...
They all say they came here because of bruce but they don't appear to want to play for bruce once they are here judging on this season
Remember the taxi driver of Livermore and Huddlestone, and saying that they were hoping Bruce got the push? Then the Livermore story broke.... Maybe Bruce has been on the back of the two of them harder than what we give him credit for.
I agree, and when you combine that with a manager that thinks wingers are strikers, centre backs are full backs, Huddlestone and Livermore are effective un-droppable central midfielders, and 3-5-2 formation is suited to play against every team in the Premier League you have insurmountable problems, hence our dire league position.
I think so. I remember the thread not long back when there was news that he would have his contract extended, many in that thread seemed delighted. Maybe some have changed their mind.
The Burnley match was a turning point for me, an absolute disgrace, they were there (Burnley) for the taking. Again, its not all Bruces fault as Livermore and Huddlestone were diabolical that game. At least I know when I go on Sunday that it can't be as bad as that but you've still got big Tom running about at 2 miles an hour again no doubt and passing the buck every time he gets the ball, to be honest i think you would have got more out of somebody like Gary Brabin in his position, a least he would have a few shots and get stuck in even if he was 5 stone overweight
