Once again - the opposition passed the ball better than we did .

The football all season has been nothing short of appalling.

We must be the slowest team in all 4 divisions.

If we don't change the manager , I think there should be a change of coaches.

The football coaching follows what the manager dictates.  Fitness and general skills coaching can be completely separate.  This is why generally, a manager will come with his assistant and 1st team coach.

And Steve Bruce, like Tim Sherwood and Remi Garde, were unable to bring in the assistant managers they'd previously worked with and done well/ok with. No.2s came as very much 2nd/3rd/4th/5th/6th choice.

One of the problems of appointing a new manager during the season.

I'd put out an invitation to Olaf the Viking to come across in the Summer, cut his final teeth with us and take on full management if the partnership is a success, (provided Bruce has a step down clause for this provision).
