Just seen Bruce at Euston station. Clearly no double training then today...

Did he have a Hawaiian shirt on?

The game plan last night was to frustrate them and the crowd and up until we conceded that corner, it was working. As for the second goal, a manager must tear his hair out when he sees his team concede a goal like that.

My own personal view is for us to try and have as strong as finish to the season as possible, and give him pre-season. I think that's what Dr Tony will want to try and do as well.

Agreed. One would hope that we can amass enough points to stay up without too much trouble but it is difficult to see that at the moment such is the gloom created by such continual and indeed, identical performances. But football can change quickly and the next three games present opportunities that must not be spurned this time around.

We do seem to be in a "lets get this season over and done with" situation again though, a lot sooner than any of us would've imagined I'm sure.

Yes, me too.

He was with someone who looked old enough to be his Dad, so he may have been shoring up our central defence or may have been out with his Dad

Charlie Hughes is 87, maybe Bruce was in the Smoke for a tactical refresher course.

Of course no double training sessions, we can not do anything to upset the poor professional footballers we employ, it might upset team spirit.

It's Wednesday. They'll be training, regardless of whether Steve Bruce is in attendance.

Aren't Wednesday's players days off? Though as we played Mon night, presumably they were off yesterday instead.

You might mock, but our main problem at the moment is that we fanny around missing chance after chance to get the ball into the 'danger zone'.

You only had to look at Barnsley 2nd and 3rd goals - first time balls back into the box - may not be the highest quality but it works in this league.

Big difference is, Barnsley got players into the box. We had Hogan alone in there with 6 or seven opposition players.
