Let's hope our good players won't want to breakaway from us.

After Eight games, Bruce's record is comparable with United

Not one, not two but three players in. A goalie, midfielder and a central defender too.

I'd keep Ross Mcaramac though hopefully turn out to be as valued as Yorkie.

I once got slated for suggesting Ross McCormack would be another Shaun Maloney. He's proving me right so far and at this point in time I would drop him down in my estimation to Gary Penrice level. Seeing how much he enjoyed having his Leeds kit wearing son as mascot on Saturday suggests that he is far from committed to this club, I really don't know why we signed him.

With regards to Promotion Maths - we need 14 wins out of 27 games to get anywhere near the top 6. Realistically its not going to happen, get some consistency over the rest of this season and plan for a shot at the title next season.

I am lost as to how it's unrealistic to assume one of the best squads, with one of the best managers, with the richest owner, will be incapable of making up a 6/7 point gap.

We have to play Norwich twice, Wednesday, Reading and Small Heath at home and Brighton at home, Leeds too. Especially when Villa Park is the toughest place in the league to come and get three points.

Bruce will be hugely disappointed if we don't make the Play offs and rightly so.

How ridiculous is this?  We need to catch up 6 points.  In 27 games.  You really think that is unrealistic?  If we had won on Sat we would have been 3 points behind Sheffield Wed in 6th.  That's how much difference 1 game can make.

14 in 27 is pretty much 50% win ratio.

We've been doing that haven't we....winning the home game and then failing to win the following away game.
