Christ Almighty. No accounting for his tactical nouce in the previous games then? Or no doubt you'll just write that off as good luck

meh. my view is of his games in charge

wolves - fluked a draw
reading -fluked a win
fulham - deserved win
blose - fluked a draw


Of course it's fluke, I mean it's weird that for the first time in years we have a manager who has a tactical plan and we've started taking a decent tally of points, but obviously it's fluke.

So fluked our best run for feels like five years? Keep it up Steve, good work

well hopefully he can wing it till the transfer window because that midfield is bad and no amount of moving people around is going to cure it

We should sack him for not sorting out the midfield problem in the summer.

He's been in charge for about 20 days, had 4 games and we've take 2 points per game. Won am away game after about 15 months.

 Forget the performances and enjoy the run. Seems to me like there's good team spirit under Bruce which has led to the results. Is that luck? No its good management.

Certainly feels like a positive change to me.

Yep I agree. He's should be gone, we haven't lost in 4 games but it's just fluke so best cut our losses.

yeah he's obviously broken the curse as i see it. I think that's entirely down to him, and lets face it a lot of our problems in the past 2 seasons have been in the head of the shite players rather than the shite players themselves. My point is if your winning games and the opposition are getting 60-70% of possesion then you're not really in the game as i see it, and certainly not dominating.Can you get promoted hardly touching the ball and scoring on the break?

He wouldn't though, would he? He'd be moaning because of results and performances, rather than moaning after a run of four games undefeated because the new manager hasn't mysteriously transformed a side who hadn't won two games together in months into playing like Barcelona.
