I would genuinely take Steve Bruce right now.
Me too.
Or Rowett.

Well he's had plenty of experience in & around the bottom area.  ;)

Gollini flaps; villa players stand still; opposition attack loose ball; opposition score goal at the death'.

Bag o' shite.

Two Villa players pointing just before the ball comes in to the box for their equalizer.  They then run away from the six yard box, completely failing to pick anyone up.  Gollini then flaps. They need to take more responsibility collectively. Crap defending yet again. Complete lack of concentration.

Who the fuck said it would be 'fun in the championship. It will be good to enjoy our football again.'
Come on, own up, who chatted that shit?

It was the naïve view that simply dropping down a division automatically meant we were going to win a lot more games.

We're winning as many games as last season ffs.

I really think if we don't win at PNE RDM is going to be potted.

He's not had that long but the same things keep happening that deny us wins so clearly it's not being drilled into them in the training ground. Our attacking play remains unconvincing, we didn't have many shots tonight.

It's simply not good enough, 1 win at this stage is abysmal.

It will be replaced soon with "It is to soon for us to go up" what ever that rubbish means.

Rowett for me. If it's no I'd also take Bruce or even a sneaky bid for Mark Hughes.

Steve Bruce looks permanently on the verge of exploding these days but I'd take him. Knows the league and he'll turn these points into wins. He's not great by any stretch and I'd bin him as soon as we get back up (probably a bridge too far already this season) but he surely cannot throw away as many points as RDM. And he might play a more balanced formation.

It's really quite impressive, no matter what league we are in, there are always 16-19 or so teams better than us.

That's quite the achievement.

Oh are they? What the fuck do I know! I thought they have done well since he was there. I tend not to look at that league anymore at the moment. I bloody hate this game.

Midfield/ defense, crap again.
We have Identified the Midfield as fans for years, are we blind ?
two poor defenders the captain and Jelphick , ok he is a midfielder, Sorry a very average Clarke was the best central defender on the pitch at the weekend.
Agree, do you need a rookie goalkeeper in this fight ? although our back up is not great.
Frustration, Frustration, No win at Preston and time for the Taxi.
We are not here to hang around and stagnate, owners have pumped in the money and expect better, as do we.

They're this seasons Aston Villa up there. Dreadful. And Hughes is having similar problems to us. A lot of mercurial players and no fucking idea how to play them together, at the expense of team balance. Add to that a dodgy backline and suspect goalkeepers, negating any chance of grinding out results whilst the too many cooks up top fail to find a winning recipe.

Even when we play 4th division sides it's a coin flip if they'll give us a shoeing or not.
