Quote from: Steve Bruce
We'll be there or thereabouts tonight if we can keep the boy Finney quiet

Has he told his forwards how to get past Lawro?

To be fair to Bruce Nyland looks shit. Although Bruce supposedly tracked him for 4 years so you'd think he would have spotted the flaws at some point.

Bunn is appalling mind, will always remember him tangled up in the net against someone, possibly, Southampton away, whilst the opposition scored and we got a drubbing under Eric Cack.

2 keeps signed, 1 long term back up and we end up with a 4th choice in goal who was out of contract, only Bruce.

How on earth have we signed two keepers in the summer and ended up with Bunn starting?

The same reason we signed two wingers plus have a winger who was our top scorer and play narrrow.

Bunn, tells you all you need to know about who we recruited. Mendes having fun at our expense?

Similary, Bolasie should be one of the top players in this division and yet we are persisting with shoe horning in players into the wrong positions...

Still no wingers.
Remember he could only add ElGhazi and Bolasie to Adomah and that’s not enough cover to start with any of them. If he can a couple more in January we’ll be flying.

He'll bring on second half with 20 minutes to go all 3 wingers to replacing Kodja, Abraham and Jack.

I reckon any keeper would look shit behind our defence.

What formation is he playing? Jack on the left or 4-1-3-2?

So is Bruce admitting the two keepers he signed in the summer aren't any good? And for that matter the two wingers?  Logic takes another shoeing.  At least the defence is 3/4 round pegs in round holes.
