ELMO, wtf. You have el Ghazi and Bolasie here for a reason. Bruce wanted Adomah off.. now he's starting. Kodjia is the only proven goal scorer we have and he's on the bench.
Jedi not at CB though..

ONLY 6 defensive players plus the goalie.....hmmmmm

It's infuriating.

I make that potentially 10 out of 11 playing in their correct position. Well done, Potatohead.
-

You ain’t seen where they’re playing yet 😉
-
Looks more of a Bruce team when you realise it's Abraham in goal, a back 4 of McGinn, Jedi, Jack and Albert, and so on.
-

You ain’t seen where they’re playing yet 😉
And for that reason I said 'potentially'. I wouldn't trust Bruce to sit the right way on a toilet.
-
If Full back Elmo is going to play wide, what exactly has El Ghazi done to get dropped from that wide position?
-
If Full back Elmo is going to play wide, what exactly has El Ghazi done to get dropped from that wide position?
His name isn’t Elmo was his crime.
-
Only Bruce could come up with that team.
Idiot.
-
El Ghazi on the bench, Adomah starts?
-
So he's dropped the one player to come out of the Sheffield United game with any form of credit?
-
If Full back Elmo is going to play wide, what exactly has El Ghazi done to get dropped from that wide position?
Read the El Ghazi thread.
Looks like he may have started off on the wrong foot with Bruce.
-
Neil Taylor ffs. Christ knows what formation he's going to play. Most potent striking threats on the bench. Yet again he sets up trying to not lose rather than trying to win from the off.
-
In fairness El Gazhi has been crap, it's not like he either scored or had an assist for our last 2 league goals.
-
Time for bed. Bruce has taken pretty much all enjoyment out of watching Villa.
Crap lineup, crap manager.
Up the Villa!
-
Not surprised to see our manager and his selection .I expected it,such a negative manager.
-
When your bench looks like our bench, the team should be romping away with this division.
-

Can you elaborate? I guess I'm out of the loop.
-

Yes...indeed.
-
He didn’t like the way he put his boots on.
-
Neil Taylor ffs. Christ knows what formation he's going to play. Most potent striking threats on the bench. Yet again he sets up trying to not lose rather than trying to win from the off.
Looks a standard 4-4-1-1 to me.
Maybe a bit negative but I think Jedinak back infront of the back 4 is a wise move given our issues there.
Think this will be a draw. Would be good to win though with Leeds drawing and Boro losing.
-
Neil Taylor ffs. Christ knows what formation he's going to play. Most potent striking threats on the bench. Yet again he sets up trying to not lose rather than trying to win from the off.
Neil Taylor are RB I imagine with Hutton on the left. AT in CM with Jedinak at CB.
-
I think it’s down to that shite way he parts his hair.
-
Can you elaborate? I guess I'm out of the loop.
The spud faced twat is holding us back.
-
I fully two things. I expect Blackburn to attack us from the off and us to lump it long to Tammy.
-
4411. Abraham isolated for much of the game and left wondering wtf is going on, Jedinak having to repeatedly boot Jack up the arse to stop him playing pointlessly deep, most of Elmo's touches coming as flick-ons from the keeper, Taylor won't be a part of the back six that hears the final whistle.
Still, 3-2 us. Chester keeps a header down for a change, and Tammy Two-Times (that'll be how he'll be known after today, tellin ya), the winner breaking Rovers' hearts as they push for a third themselves after we let a two goal lead slip.
-
I wouldn't trust Bruce to sit the right way on a toilet.
I need to get that image out of my mind.
-
Yet again he sets up trying to not lose
How can you say that when he has selected Neil Taylor.
-
Fair point well made
-
Swarming with police again. They know which Birmingham club they're playing of late?
-
Oh well, at least Jedinak will just be slower than continental drift and wayward with his passing in midfield rather than defence.
-
Hopefully to arrest Bruce for crimes against football.
-
That is a bullshit selection.
He wants the sack.
-
I still think he'll be at CB
-
What a load of shit.
-
He's off his rocker.
-
At least it's players in their correct positions. I think i'd have preferred Hutton left, Bree right, Kodjia starting with Abraham on the bench (if Kodjia is fully fit) and Bolasie instead of Adomah (if Bolasie is fit), but i'm not complaining too much. We'll still lose though.
-
With the squad we've got, I doubt anyone of us
Would have picked that starting eleven!!
-
Adomah ahead of El Ghazi or Bolasie? Wtf. Pleased that Jedinak seems not to be centre half, but I wouldn't put it past the idiot to play five at the back. It is the might of Blackburn after all.
-
At least he's playing the defenders in their right position ... well, I assume so.
Why so many police here?
-
It’s the football equivalent of having a tin pot dictator in charge wasting the natural resources, fucking everything up and there is the nothing the people can do about it.
-
There are times (in fact more often than not) that I’m convinced he is trying to get fired. Today is another example of that.
-
It’s the football equivalent of having a tin pot dictator in charge wasting the natural resources, fucking everything up and there is the nothing the people can do about it.
That’s very harsh on Mrs May but true.
-
Is there a reason our top scorer this season has been dropped?
-
We’ve lost 6 from the play off final team, just in case anyone didn’t know.
-
This very much a not to lose team, hope we sneak a win team. A Steve Bruce team.
-
I've had four promotions, shut the fuck up.
-
He's either a)spent the last 2 weeks putting his new formation plan together or b)he's stuck Axel in the middle of defence and picked that side to prove he can't play there. Neither option sounds very likely
-
The results in the league went for us, largely today. Win today and on Tuesday and we are back in the groove.
-
That's it, let El Ghazi bed in with games....err, oh Bruce has dropped him! Stupid decision......
-
That's it, let El Ghazi bed in with games....err, oh Bruce has dropped him! Stupid decision......
He was warned not to wear his Jurassic World T shirt at training.
-
Steve Martin is the referee. Fucking hell, another comedian.
-
Is there a reason our top scorer this season has been dropped?
To give our idiot manager the benefit of the doubt for a second didn’t Kodjia come back from a game for the Ivory Coast this past week.
-
We’ve lost 6 from the play off final team, just in case anyone didn’t know.
I wish we lost the twat in charge of that farce
-
No Bjarnason ??
-
I’d take a mauling today to rid of him.
-
I’d take a mauling today to rid of him.
That ain't right.
-
I’d take a mauling today to rid of him.
I wouldn't.
-
I’m so bored watching Bruce’s Aston Villa
-
Claret shorts.
Not good.
-
We’re so deep already. We must play with much greater tempo. Abraham just gave a first time pass something kodija has prob never done
Grealish needs to play much higher up the pitch and affect the game
-
We’re so deep already. We must play with much greater tempo. Abraham just gave a first time pass something kodija has prob never done
Grealish needs to play much higher up the pitch and affect the game
He’s essentially a defensive midfielder in Bruce’s system
-
Claret shorts.
Not good.
Claret sleeves.
Not good.
-
axel nearly on the score sheet
-
Jeeze got away with it there.
-
Why the feck doesn’t grealish shoot ffs
-
Mind you, Blackburn have ruined their kits, too.
-
Axel with the best 2 attempts so far, over the bar and forcing the keeper to make a good save. Shame both were at our end.
-
Twice dangerous from Axel. Guess someone has to explain him that he has moved into the centre
-
Claret shorts.
Not good.
Claret sleeves.
Not good.
Potato head.
Very bad
-
I’d take a mauling today to rid of him.
I wouldn't.
I'm never going to want this.
-
We didn't score in our good bit. Bet we concede in their good bit.
-
Can someone explain why Elmo keeps crossing it to no one. If only someone would gamble and get beyond the striker
-
Why wasn't that a foul on Abraham?
-
I’d take a mauling today to rid of him.
I wouldn't.
I'm never going to want this.
Just like pulling of a plaster. Get it over with.
-
We got 2 defenders on the right playing where they like to be and still cant stop Blackburn running down and crossing.
-
McGinn booked.
-
Pointless booking, that. Come on Villa pick it up FFS.
-
Stupid challenge by McGinn. Needless free kick and booking
-
Noticed on a Blackburn attack they had five in the box
We had two on the attack I saw.
-
He won't be getting free kicks like that turned down if and when he plays for his parent club.
-
we are so shit at times
-
Mcginn has 70 minutes now on a yellow....stupid challenge.
-
We are a team going through the motions. Predictable and bland.
-
No effort to close them down, give them endless time and space to pick out the pass. Shit so far.
-
This is gash.
-
Being overrun in midfield.
-
It's like our players have never met.
Maybe they keep looking up to pass to someone in blue sleeves?
-
Still nothing arranged for what we do when get to the opposition penalty area.
-
Started well but Blackburn well on top now. Getting destroyed in the air. Nyland like a mouse on the line, Hutton getting torn a new one and Elmo proficient in consistently giving away possession
-
Poor so far. No spark and not keeping the ball. Heart in the mouth every time Rovers attack.
-
Having to listen on WM - just commented that Abraham looking increasingly isolated. Shock
-
The commentators said it’s 4-3-3 it’s 4-5-1
-
we are so shit at times
-
Is Jedinak in the middle of midfield and Axel in defence?
-
Elmo having a Mare and Jedi not doing us any favors trying to win the middle....
-
It took about five minutes for Blackburn to work us out.
-
this squad could be so good with the right manager
-
The commentators said it’s 4-3-3 it’s 4-5-1
I dream of 4-3-3
-
I’d take a mauling today to rid of him.
I wouldn't.
My patience has snapped off with Bruce. I hate to admit wanting anything and everything to see him get fired.
-
This is shit and getting shitter.
Where is ‘the reaction’ he keeps promising us?
-
It’s actually impressive that he can turn a squad with that much attacking talent into such a hapless, playing on backfoot shambles. Well done fist face.
-
Is Jedinak in the middle of midfield and Axel in defence?
Yes mate.
-
The first 6 minutes were bright, i sense the next 84 is going to more of this drab
-
This is turgid and embarrassing. Barely had the ball were awful
-
Having to listen on WM - just commented that Abraham looking increasingly isolated. Shock
Bruce will turn Tammy into Hogan
-
Starting to get in SB stride - back foot and playing crap
-
Ffs is the cricket back on yet?
-
Being totally outplayed by a team full of League 1 players.
-
Having to listen on WM - just commented that Abraham looking increasingly isolated. Shock
It's like Bruce is working on a theorum to demonstrate the maximum distance a centre forward can be from the rest of his teammates at all times.
-
We're losing individual battles all over the pitch.As per
-
Phew.
-
Don't worry, when we go behind we'll seamlessly switch to 3-1-6 for the last 10 mins. Liquid, nay total, football.
-
Off side let-off
-
lucky there
-
Got away with that.
-
Very fucking lucky yet again. Not even offside. Jammy bastards.
-
Phew, that was lucky. Goal for them ruled offside, and incorrectly it would seem. Fucking shit this display.
-
good goal wiped off
-
Well on. Should be 1-0.
-
Got away with that. He didn't need to run offside there.
Only just seen the replay with Hutton playing him on.
-
Is there any manager, anywhere, who couldn't get better performances out of this squad?
-
In disarray. Fuck. Off. Potato head.
-
Wish we had Bradley Dack
-
Thank fuck for shit officials.
-
Being totally outplayed by a team full of League 1 players.
burton did it
-
Sounds like we should have had a pen?
-
pen too for villa
-
We've been defending all game with 6 defenders on the pitch. This is just terrible viewing entertainment.
-
That's evened up the mistakes. At least he didn't send McGinn off.
-
how bad are these black shirt people
-
Should have been a penalty to McGinn
-
Where’s the reaction? Coming from the owners this evening, hopefully.
-
Is there any manager, anywhere, who couldn't get better performances out of this squad?
Even Barry Fry would be a massive upgrade.
-
Shit refereeing, shit corner, shit Adomah. So frustrating.
-
One each on the crap decisions. Should've been a pen, then we sail the corner safely to their keeper.
Turgid. Rubbish.
-
Bloody penalty ref.
-
That's evened up the mistakes. At least he didn't send McGinn off.
Yeah let’s call it 1-1.
-
Wish we had Bradley Dack
It wouldn't make any difference, we would soon ruin him!
-
We are a team who are full of players who can’t be arsed led by manager scared to attack. Sick of it
Grealish 20m no chance. He does not affect a game he is just coasting and it’s really starting to piss me off.
-
there’s a lot of negativity on this thread
it’s this sort of attitude that’s made Scamps quit the site after all of a dozen posts
you’ve only got yourselves to blame I’m afraid
-
Think the ref evened it up there
-
23 months in charge, 4 transfer windows and this is the shit we serve up under him.
and 1-1 with shit decisions.
-
Why cant we just play 4-4-2 now with Tammy and Kod up top and just browbeat any team into submission?
Sure the defense might give them a few simple chances but is it worth being so blunt up front just to cover how weak we are in the back?
Hes failing at that anyway...no matter how many aging bodies he is stacking up our back half...
-
Think the ref evened it up there
Utterly awful x 2
-
Adomah, beat him once and cross, better, but cross.
-
Wish we had Bradley Dack
It wouldn't make any difference, we would soon ruin him!
I bet he’d jump at the chance to sit on our bench behind someone Bruce has tried to offload.
-
I think Wolves vs Burnley and Everton vs West Ham are stretching the definition of "Super" Sunday to breaking point. I'd rather watch us! Well, almost.
-
Definite penalty! Fucking useless ref!

Wouldn't be surprised to see Jedinak come at half time. He has hardly had a kick
-
Looked like McGinn was off balance to me when he turned, so I can see why he didn't give it in real time.
But what is the point of having audio available from the other officials if they can't intervene in a situation like that.
-
Definite penalty! Fucking useless ref!
Bruce get out of jail card.
-
Bollicks. Paid 7 quid for Sky Sports through Now TV, and it’s frozen after 25 minutes. I mean, I kinda knew it would be a waste of money but still.
-
A bit more like it in the last few minutes.
-
I want McGinn to shoot more. Better from Villa there though.
-
Why don't the players stage a mutiny and play there own way?
-
Bollicks. Paid 7 quid for Sky Sports through Now TV, and it’s frozen after 25 minutes. I mean, I kinda knew it would be a waste of money but still.
We're winning four-nil, mate.
-
We can call the ref useless all we like but if the officials weren't having a mare we'd be 1 down and the penalty incident would never have happened.
-
Same here but even worse as it’s streaming perfectly.
-
Needless free-kicks!
-
I want McGinn to shoot more. Better from Villa there though.
On the basis of the shots he was having at Hampden, I'd rather he didn't.
-
Same here but even worse as it’s streaming perfectly.
Lol.
-
Mulgrew was good in Trumpton
-
Why does Charlie
Mulgrew wear an Alice band?
-
McGinn is a quality player, great addition. All our good play has gone through him
-
Told ya.
-
wont dont jack shoot
-
McGinn is a quality player, great addition. All our good play has gone through him
Agreed. I love him, but he can't shoot.
-
the george best story zzzzzzzzzzzz
-
Bollicks. Paid 7 quid for Sky Sports through Now TV, and it’s frozen after 25 minutes. I mean, I kinda knew it would be a waste of money but still.
It hasn't frozen mate, that's actually live coverage.
-
McGinn with a screamer of a shot!
-
Sky commentator is on fecking drugs
-

Bugger, that was better than my effort.
-
Don Goodman 'I'm very impressed with both of these teams'. Wow, just wow.
-

I'm using that. Mine's ok.
-

It hasn't frozen, it's just Jedi running at full pace.

I bet Don Goodman is impressed by green leaves.
-
Bollicks. Paid 7 quid for Sky Sports through Now TV, and it’s frozen after 25 minutes. I mean, I kinda knew it would be a waste of money but still.
We're winning four-nil, mate.
Bastard.
Working again now, turned it off and on again.
-
Hutton is the worst full back at the club.
-
I wish Grealish would shoot more often.
-
Sky commentator is on fecking drugs
I think Bruce should take some spice , the footie might be better
-
mind the players are like zombies most the time
-
Sky commentator is on fecking drugs
I think Bruce should take some spice , the footie might be better
or do shrooms and get lost in the woods.
-
"It's been entertaining" what game are they watching?
-
elmo is contributing absolutely nothing in that position, nothing.
-
Blackburn not lost at home this century apparently. Today is the day.
-
This is dull and that’s being kind, fucking Bruceball, bore the opposition into a mistake.
-
And black is meant to make you look slimmer. It ay working Brucey.
-
And black is meant to make you look slimmer. It ay working Brucey.
You should see how fat he'd look otherwise.
-
Also, we’ve reacted very well to Sheffield Utd. Seriously, ARE they watching the game?
-
What’s going on with the neck on Bruce’s jumper?
-
And black is meant to make you look slimmer. It ay working Brucey.
hope so I'm out tonight in black trousers and black shirt
-
Impressive stuff from Jedinak in the last couple of minutes. Who could have guessed he'd be better playing in his own position?
-
Our crossing is woeful.
Two rank ordinary teams on show here.
-
What is this Adomah Elmo shit. Just play our best side.
-
In fairness Elmo has been mostly decent this season, he's even scored a couple.
Adomah, not so much.
-
albert shit at heading and elmo shit at crossing
-
We're due a win.
-
Jedinak is looking much better at least playing correct position, Elmo is so limited playing in an attacking position surely surely Bolasie or El Ghazi needs to be where he is.
-
Elmo's crossing is poor. Get El Ghazi or Bolasie on...
-
So holding mighty Blackburn at HT. Well done Steve.
-
albert shit at heading and elmo shit at crossing
This, all day long.
-
First half observations
Jedinak much better at Dcm than chat
Grealish needs a serious kick up the arse
Tammy totally isolated but works much harder than kodj
Elmo and Albert might help defensively but carry no threat and crossing is shite
-
I wish I could meet a woman that was as easily impressed as these commentators.
-
So, are all you critiques happy with that as we’ve now played 45 mind with the most players in their natural position this year ?
-
Very entertaining? I want some of whatever they're smoking, it was fucking wank. Two shit mid-table division 2 sides.
-
From BBC:
38 mins
Post update
Blackburn 0-0 Aston Villa
Alan Hutton invites Richie Smallwood inside with so much willingness he might as well have put the kettle on for him and apologised for being out of his favourite biscuits.
-
So, are all you critiques happy with that as we’ve now played 45 mind with the most players in their natural position this year ?
Problem is there are better players on the bench.
-
So, are all you critiques happy with that as we’ve now played 45 mind with the most players in their natural position this year ?
Problem is there are better players on the bench.
And 15000 better managers in the stands.
-
Impressive stuff from Jedinak in the last couple of minutes. Who could have guessed he'd be better playing in his own position?
And axel has settled down, almost like more game time in his own position, say in a cup game, would have been useful.
-
Clean sheet half. The only real positive to take from that. Jedinak playing well but we have to get more from Jack and John. Albert and Elmo don't seem to be playing like their places are under threat.
-
Impressive stuff from Jedinak in the last couple of minutes. Who could have guessed he'd be better playing in his own position?

Didn’t he play there in a cup game?
-
Sticking pins in your eyes might be less painful.
Jack is a shadow of himself at the moment, just treading water with the rest of them. If we go a goal down we're done for.
We need a new manager and new impetus very,very quickly.
-
Two ordinary mid table teams, this is what Bruce has reduced us to.

But Bruce knows better ... Mccain twat
-
So holding mighty Blackburn at HT. Well done Steve.
Whoop
-
Missed first half but listened to Listening to talkSPORT summary who reckon we’ve been mince.
-
It's been a very impressive half-time from both teams.
-
We are a clueless, poor side with minimal goal threat. Any team up for it could easily beat us, that's the current hard facts of whatever this is I'm watching.
-
Missed first half but listened to Listening to talkSPORT summary who reckon we’ve been mince.
They'd be mostly right. Blackburn more dangerous, Dack is the games best player so far. We are our own worst enemy with the poor crossing and lack of creativity in the final third. That said, Talksport are a bunch of shit.
-
Yes, we really are fucking cack aren't we.
-
This game is so for the taking just feel we will be too scared to take it
-
McGinn has been our best player, so worried he’ll pick up a second booking.
-
I wish I could meet a woman that was as easily impressed as these commentators.
Have you tried Mrs Bruce?
-
I can't make my mind up whether Dack looks more like a snooker player or an unusually thin darts player. Either that or he is a footballer but has come in a time machine from the year 1987.
-
I wish I could meet a woman that was as easily impressed as these commentators.
Have you tried Mrs Bruce?
I'm sure's there's a wrong hole joke to be done, but decorum prevents me from making it.
-
I wish I could meet a woman that was as easily impressed as these commentators.
Have you tried Mrs Bruce?
Ha! I'm on my way.
-
Nyland
Elmo Tuanzebe Chester Hutton
Jedinak
Bolasie McGinn Grealish El Ghazi
Abraham
This foir the second half please.
-
Here comes second half, where managers adapt their team to play better, and Steve Bruce doesn't do anything
-
Steve Martin is a jerk.
-
I don’t think we’ve been that bad. We just haven’t been that good either.
-
I wish I could meet a woman that was as easily impressed as these commentators.
Have you tried Mrs Bruce?
Ha! I'm on my way.
Put yer boots on.
-
There is just no actual football from us, is there.
It is pass, pass, whack and chase.
It’s fucking soul destroying.
-
we sit at a drab 0-0 as Sky pan to Kodjia and Bolasie seated in their jackets.
-
Good refereeing for once. Played the advantage then called it back and booked the Northern thug. Fair play.
-
Or did he? What happened to our free kick?
-
Close by Abraham apparently
-
Whisper it, but Taylor is doing okay.
-
Sounds like we've gone up a gear
-
All Villa this half. COYVB.
-
Sounds like we've gone up a gear
We’re in first now.
-
Ffs Albert
Better from us though
-
I reckon there's a decent chance VAR would have given us a pen there.
-
Awful turgid crap.
-
Need to take our chances as they don’t come very often. It’s amazibg what a bit of tempo does.
Come on villa get the goal
-
The officiating is soooo bad
-
Did he just say Blackburn are signing a player for £7 million? Have they found a new Jack Walker?
-
Come on Villa you can do this, we believe in you, hold out for the 0-0!
-
Abraham looks close to tears.
Stop fucking whacking it I think he said.
-
Abraham looks close to tears.
It just sank it that he has another 39 games of this.
-
Grealish needs to up his game. He's done mostly knack all this season.
-
tammy thinking this championship is still shit
-
Why the fuck did McGinn not pass to Abraham then?
-
Abraham looks close to tears.
It just sank it that he has another 39 games of this.
Plus our FA Cup run.
So, 40 games.
-
Tammy looks like he wanted to cry twice in the last five minutes!
-
Tammy looks like he wanted to cry twice in the last five minutes!
Welcome to my world
-
Tammy looks like he wanted to cry twice in the last five minutes!
In fairness i've felt that way for the last hour or so.
-
Grealish needs to up his game. He's done mostly knack all this season.
Over rated. Still just doesn’t do enough. Too sporadic and needs a kick up the arse
-
Tammy looks like he wanted to cry twice in the last five minutes!
wait till kodja never passes to him
-
Just noticed Brentford with fuck all resources are second
-
Will Bruce gamble on two up front or can we expect to see Abraham taken off?
Don't know why I'm asking. We all know the answer.
-
Time for a change, Tattyhead.
-
Tammy looks like he wanted to cry twice in the last five minutes!
Well if we're bored to tears why shouldn't he be?
-
We look miles away from a promotion winning team.
-
Fucking hell Jack, what was that?
-
Tammy looks like he wanted to cry twice in the last five minutes!
Welcome to my world
you have been crying for five seasons
-
We just look so disjointed so many misplaced passes
-
Fucking hell Jack, what was that?
Shit.
-
Funny watching Abraham. His reaction reminds me of a cricket captain who put me on to bowl once, after I’d claimed on my debut that I could bowl a little. My sixth ball couldn’t come quick enough for him and suffice to say I didn’t bowl again.
-
Make a change perhaps, Fistface?
-
Fucking hell Jack, what was that?
Shit.
Jack shit.
-
When is this donkey going to make some fucking subs?
-
Kodjia for Abraham, it just has to be
-
Here comes Kodjia guessing for Abraham.
-
Make a change perhaps, Fistface?
Another 15 mins yet before we need to shore it up and bring on a defender.
-
Bunch of crap passing fancy dans
-
When is this donkey going to make some fucking subs?
After we are a goal down
-
Adomah off, Kodjia on.
Would put El Ghazi on aswell, even at this early stage we need to win this game.
-
There is just no actual football from us, is there.
It is pass, pass, whack and chase.
It’s fucking soul destroying.
Beautifully summed up.
-
Bruce letting Kod know how many pies he's got reserved from the post-match buffet.
-
Why kodj??
-
Fair enough, Bruce. Now get at least one of El Ghazi or Bolasie on and really go for it.
-
Are the new owners aware of this shambolic excuse of a football team??
It’s pure garbage.
-
I never thought I'd see us play such awful football as we did in the McLeish era, but we are.
-
I never thought I'd see us play such awful football as we did in the McLeish era, but we are.
It's worse.
-
And yet Bruce is still regarded in "football circles"
-
Bruce letting Kod know how many pies he's got reserved from the post-match buffet.
Our Emperor is wearing no clothes and the only reason he’s not sacked is because the owners can’t face such a grotesque image anymore than we can.
-
George Boateng. There's a player I'd forgotten.
-
Lovely move. Thought we had scored.
-
I never thought I'd see us play such awful football as we did in the McLeish era, but we are.
It's worse.
[/quote
Way worse.
-
Close from Abraham. Good link up with Kodjia in the build up.
-
Has to do better there
-
George Boateng. There's a player I'd forgotten.
- he pulled over in his car once and asked me where villa park car park is
-
George Boateng. There's a player I'd forgotten.
He would probably still do a job.
-
What a miss that should of been in
-
I feel we're going to get out of jail here, 1-0
-
This Blackburn guy used to play for us didn't he?
-
Is Bruce paying this pair of clowns to spout his horseshit?
-
Kodjia passed!
-
Steve Bruce is building again...six players they've lost since...
-
Have to go and win here
-
Is Bruce paying this pair of clowns to spout his horseshit?
If you keeping spinning bullshit, people eventually believe it.
-
No point having Elmo on, get one of the new wingers on surely
-
Only thing he's every built is a 30 tier cake for a snack.
-
He’s the Vladimir Putin of shit football managers.
-
And yet Bruce is still regarded in "football circuses"
FTFY
-
This Blackburn guy used to play for us didn't he?
salifou?
-
I feel we're going to get out of jail here, 1-0
Hope so but last season we could go to these places and nick a 1-0.
With the backline we could easily lose it.
-
FFS.
-
1-0. Blackburn.
Tick tock...
-
bruce our=t !!!
-
Bollocks.
-
And there we go. His plan to hold on for 0-0 blown apart
-
Like Fred Karno's circus in our penalty box
-
And there you go.
Anybody surprised?
-
What a load of utter, utter fucking horseshit.
-
That's it. Enough.
Get this miserable fucker out now.
-
100% deserved.
-
Fuck off you fat useless ******.
-
Bollocks!
-
Not good enough. Bruce out.
-
too late with your subs you twat
-
We could have nicked one, or this could have happened. Pot luck. That’s how it is when play shit, clueless football.
-
Diabolical defending. Grealish the worst offender. He's made James Dack look like Messi this evening.
-
Hourihane om for Jedinak?
-
Lose and he’s sacked = a good day in the long run
-
It's hard to see why he is still here
-
Bruce, fuck off out of it, you shit, clueless, lumpen faced twat. Fucking useless.
-
You feck around with the line up for an hour then change to a 3-5-2, that's what you get you absolute idiot Bruce.
-
Who's gone off? Elmo and who else?
-
Look how many players we had back there attempting to defend and do u think one of them cud do it properly???
Of course not!
-
And the next manger is.....
-
Fuck off Bruce, NOW
-
So we have to go behind before we make changes. At 0-0 Bruce made one Mowbray made three.
-
What kind of defending do you call that? Grealish pansy jump was bad enough but the rest was pure powder puff. Pathetic.
-
As things stand we're in the bottom half. After winning our first two games of the season.
This all points to SB being dismissed on Monday morning I think like RDM was.
-
Ive had enough, time to get the banners out.
-
Who's gone off? Elmo and who else?
Jedinak
-
Fuck off Bruce just fuck off
-
Who's gone off? Elmo and who else?
Jedi
-
Diabolical defending. Grealish the worst offender. He's made James Dack look like Messi this evening.
Sorry, Bradley Dack. James Dack used to play for our cricket team.
-
Grealish has almost reverted to pre injury standard. He’s not getting us out of jail this time.
-
Ta.
-
Enough is enough.
-
On the bright side he’s toast now.
We can move on.
-
Wtf was that free kick.
-
Diabolical defending. Grealish the worst offender. He's made James Dack look like Messi this evening.
Grealish was a soft disgrace there. Head has been gone since Spurs move fell through . Fine finish mind
-
Our only clean sheet this season was at the mighty Yeovil, thanks to them wrongly having a goal disallowed.
-
How Grealish survived not being subbed is beyond belief.
-
Stuck in this fucking league forever.
-
On the bright side he’s toast now.
We can move on.
I would not even put a quid on it. For some inexplicable reason he has charmed the new owners.
-
How Grealish survived not being subbed is beyond belief.
Because Bruce is an incompetent, fist faced ******?
-
Cat shit!!!! Is that the worst kind of shit?
-
Any chance of anyone making a pro active run into the box?
-
I wish I could meet a woman that was as easily impressed as these commentators.
Have you tried Mrs Bruce?
I'm sure's there's a wrong hole joke to be done, but decorum prevents me from making it.
As long as it's there or thereabouts.
-
Nice run... until the cross.
-
If it stays like this the post-match interview should be interesting.
-
That's the bedroom for ya.
-
If we are turning on jack, it must be bad.
-
I'm a Jack fan.But jeez he's been gash.
-
priceless
fuck off commentator points less
-
Some of these players look like they've given up.
What an absolute fucking mess.
-
I have just heard something that is rarely mentioned.
Bruce is the promotion master, he wrote the book.
JUST FUCK OFF WITH THAT SHITE.
-
Promotion specialist still getting wheeled out by commentators. Fuck off.
-
Ironically we crank up the "attacking gears" once we go behind. It's all so predictably shit.
-
These commentators must be being paid by Bruce's agent to spout complimentary shit.
-
Protest time next week
-
Bilge.
-
If it stays like this the post-match interview should be interesting.
"Ewood is a tough place to play. Look at he clubs who didn't pick up results today. The Championship is a tough division."
-
If it stays like this the post-match interview should be interesting.
We had a bad 'un for sure, i'm not going to make excuses but listen, we lost 6 players from the play-off final and people are getting hysterical. We'll be there or thereabouts come May, today is one of those days but that's the Championship.
-
If it stays like this the post-match interview should be interesting.
"We tried but couldn't get a defender in [...] That's the championship for you"
Not that interesting unfortunately.
-
Comedy defending.
-
The 2 week international break completely and utterly fucking wasted.
-
No patterns of play no idea. Bruce just needs to go and go now
-
And the next manger is.....
Thomas Tuchel
-
The 2 week international break completely and utterly fucking wasted.
Disagree. I enjoyed the break.
-
He isn’t going anywhere.
-
I couldn't give a shit if he's won four or forty four promotions from this league. Bruce looks totally incapable of getting us out and that's what counts to me.
-
All the firepower and we can’t score at newly promoted Blackburn.
-
Jack has been awful. Same as everyone pretty much.
-
The 2 week international break completely and utterly fucking wasted.
Disagree. I enjoyed the break.
Can we have another one?
-
Another ricket from Nyland?
-
Is Jack just demotivated or is he trying to play his way out?
-
Another ricket from Nyland?
‘HOUSE!’
-
If it stays like this the post-match interview should be interesting.
That's the Championship for you!
-
fuck off Grealish, utter moron
-
The 2 week international break completely and utterly fucking wasted.
Disagree. I enjoyed the break.
Can we have another one?
We've got another game on Tuesday. 😭
-
Nyland is shit.
-
We have had an easy run on paper to start the season. Our one acid test we got hammered.
We have failed to beat reading Ipswich Blackburn it’s truely embarrassing
Fuck off experience he is clueless
Just go Bruce fuck off and go
-
And we play that doughty Northern force Rotherham on Tuesday who saw off that Chelsea legends team today.
No easy games here
-
Are we the least footballing football team in the division?
-
I sense a brown envelope has been passed between Steve Bruce and these commentators.
-
All the firepower and we can’t score at newly promoted Blackburn.
this
-
Have we ever had a shot that struck with any sort of conviction?
-
If we are turning on jack, it must be bad.
Not turning on him at all. Just acknowledging that he's been as wank as the rest of them.
-
Are we the least footballing football team in the division?
The world
-
Two weeks to try and start to reorganise wasted. Thousands can say furlonly, “I told you so”.
-
We used to stink out the PL. now we are starting to stink out the Championship.
League 1 anyone?
-
Should of gone before the summer. Twat
-
Are we the least footballing football team in the division?
The world
The universe.
-
Bruce now has the look of a man with a lop-sided squad full of more forwards than he needs, and no idea of what his best team or formation are.
That usually heralds a downward spiral.
-
Fans singing your sacked in the morning....that long, how about by the end of the game.
-
I sense a brown envelope has been passed between Steve Bruce and these commentators.
They must be his mates, like every other fucker in the media. Haven't played badly indeed, apart from 15-20 minutes in the second half we've been absolute wank.
-
Just give me one fucking decent fucking set fucking piece.
-
These commentators can fuck off as well, continually going on about Bruce's experience of getting our of this league. All the time ignoring the evidence in front of their fucking noses.
-
So, pretty much exactly the situation he inherited.
-
Fans singing your sacked in the morning....that long, how about by the end of the game.
Did the Blackburn fans join in?
-
Why do we look like a team who don’t realise we have two mins to score
-
Just give me one fucking decent fucking set fucking piece.
Thanks.
-
Bruce gets another week.
1-1.
-
Brilliant
-
Thank fuck for that, Hourihane. A draw is still nowhere near good enough though.
-
Great goal.
-
Hourihane!!!!!!!
-
Hourihane magical free kick.
-
YESSSS!
-
Yay.
-
houriane saves him but wont start with him
-
Great free kick. Really special. Changes nothing.
-
That was a great free kick
-
Fuck off Bruce. Sick to death of your negative shit. Great goal Conner!!
-
Stop celebrating. Get the ball.
-
Bruce still fuck off though
-
Top top FK... better every Replay
-
Not quite Jay-Jay standard but it was a beauty.
-
That’s the worst thing that could have happened. Third time he has got away with it this year.
-
Great free kick - hopefully won’t be enough to save Bruce though
-
If we are turning on jack, it must be bad.
Not turning on him at all. Just acknowledging that he's been as wank as the rest of them.
The second half of that sentence is the important bit, the whole team have been wank, we play like a team that only meet each other in the dressing room. Even when we score (like that fucking beauty Houri has just netted) it's individual brilliance, I don't care whether the manager is on the training ground or not but I do expect him to to have a coaching team that can see these problems and do something about it. 2 years of this same shit is all the evidence needed to show he's fucking clueless.
-
Shit! Did you see that!
-
Bollocks. That saves his bacon.
-
Save the fat ****** for another month
-
Goal aside, utter rubbish, fuck off Bruce.
-
Can’t stand ‘fans’ hoping we dont win/score. Go support another team.
-
We deserved at least a draw. In fairness to Bruce, he went for it and brought a forward on. And in fairness, I wouldn't have brought Hourihane on but he ended up being the hero.
-
My Niece who is 5 doesn’t kick the ball the way jack just did
-
I want him fired win, draw and especially if we lose. Today has once again been dreadful
-
It's the way we've got this point, Bruce out.
-
Lovely Conor. However, just paper over the cracks .
-
And he’s kept his job for another couple of games. Delaying the inevitable once gain. We’re a shambles.
-
Lovely Conor. However, just paper over the cracks .
Crevasses
-
Bollocks. That saves his bacon.
So you are pissed off when villa score. Great support.
-
Can’t stand ‘fans’ hoping we dont win/score. Go support another team.
Some people just cannot see the bigger picture can they.

Agree totally, Bruce out!

sorry posted in the wrong thread.
