I really dislike Micah and think Big Steve's lost it if he brings him back.

But I'm not sure if the consensus of this forum always aligns with the wider support at home but also particularly away.

For me Hutton stinks as a player. But when I went to the Brentford game, not all but a fair few of the fans seem to be right behind him. There's even a song for him.

I only go to VP a couple of times a season, and to the London aways, but I agree. I mentioned on here that I was staggered at QPR when Tim Sherwood got a standing ovation and a song when he walked past the away end.

As for Hutton, I'm with Chris Smith.

For all of Sherwood's faults he did keep us up that first season and gave us our only couple of genuine bright spots in the last 7 years or so. Maybe that's why some fans still like him a bit?

Lambert kept us up every season that he was here. It shouldn't be considered an achievement.

I don't think there's even a comparison. The club was in free fall and was getting worse with every season that went by. Lambert played is part in that, especially made worse with the diabolical negative football he played. Sherwood played some decent stuff and lifted the club albeit for a short time only.

Fair enough. We won't agree and the arguments have been rinsed dry.

Steve Bruce is having a bit if a disagreement with Paul McGrath over his perceived commitment.  I can't see that ending well for Bruce.

I know what you mean, i think Hutton is gash too but there was a few renditions of the 500 miles song in the Holte against Barnsley, this was when the score was 1-3. he seems to have a bit of a cult hero status amongst some of our support, I'm guessing its because of his effort.

I like him. He gives his all and looks as though he cares. He also never hides. If some of those with more ability showed the same attitude and application then we might not be having such a tough time.

Same here.

For me he's constantly out of position. I think a better way of showing application and attitude would be showing some tactical nous, supporting team mates by being in position and getting back a bit quicker after losing the ball while the opposition start another attack.

I don't think the bonkers runs that open up acres of space for the opposition show application or endeavour. While I like a hard tackle, I would take 90 minutes of good positioning as a better sign of good attitude than a 1 second leg breaking tackle.

So he states he lives in the area and has done for a while, so he knows what the support has been through, then he glory's up Micah Richards. What you may have not grasped, is were not fickle, but if we do not like you, your days are numbered. Micak fing Richards help!!!

If he honestly thinks Micah Richards is going to be the answer he's in for a huge disappointment.

I'm very surprised at Bruce, thought he had more nous than this tbh.

I think he's just saying it because we're stuck with him for the moment. Same with Agbonlahor.
