If we are concerned about the takeover and simply want to remain in the league until we are bought, Bruce is not the answer.

You cannot guarantee safety under Steve Bruce, if thats what you want, hire Sam Allardyce.

Also, David Moyes is doing a better job at West Ham (as I said he would) than Bruce is with us and we are very similar clubs.

We simply made a bad decision.

Wear ham finished behind us last year having spend hundreds of millions over the last few years mate.

Bruce's funding a system and we're getting results, so it's just the way it is for us..

If we try playing football with the **** players we've got I fear we'd get relegated, so maybe it's Bruce and rafa that are right and we fans that are wrong?

If we got bielsa or someone like that there's no guarantee we'd hit the ground running It takes years, so we'd need to get a good manager and throw money at it... We won do that under Ashley sadly.

David Moyes came in late last season, we are lucky for that as he turned them around. They're now ahead of us, they play better than us and last window didn't even over spend.

I'm not even picking a deluded choice, its David ****ing Moyes.

We spent money without selling, we haven't used those players properly. Basic management beyond how we set up invovles playing players in the right position, having them motivated and playing to their strengths.

Its simply cowardice and lack of ambition to suggest how we do things right now is the best way, if we gonna be defensive turds, I'd rather we do it properly. Get Sam in, he'll set it up properly.

How we play now is actually embarrassing

I’m not sure if this is the right thread but does anyone know how the Mackems got on?

I've given up the search, it's given me RSI all the scrolling. I got as far as the Lithuanian 4th division before giving up. But they've got a new manager so with that bounce, home advantage and playing the bottom side who could only field a team of kids, surely the mackems won

Don't know like, I like the way they play but not sure they'll keep it up all season. But I would definitely not want Rafa back if we had money or Pochettino. I'd prefer Bielsa to them 2 but think there's got to be better out there

You were loving Bruce the other day <laugh>

But aye Bielsa does know his stuff. He's ancient though and I'm not sure his players will keep up the fitness levels. I wouldn't be upset if we got him like

I just think Bruce is getting a bit too much **** off the fans. He's doing fine.. He's not got loads of money in fact we spent next to nowt really.. We've had some good results and he should get credit for the wins if hes getting **** for the defeats... He gets paid **** all

Aye mebbes. The football we're watching is ****e but I'm not even arsed about that, it's his team selection that does my tits in. But I suppose he is keeping our heads above water even if it does seem lucky as out. Like Shearer was saying on Amazon the manager isn't the problem at the club

Exactly mate under Ashley it'll never be any different... I know Bruce's footballs crap, but it just seems like the pitch forks have been out from day 1.. We could've got a manager that tried something more expansive and been getting turned over every week.. I'd rather just play it safe, get to 40 points and hope a takeover happens.. I don't think we've got the players or the manager to take risks right now... Bruce's just a man trying his best...

The only thing is when the "luck" dries up how long do we leave it before getting rid, because he's not clever enough to turn things around or change things, he's shown that
