I'm getting to the point where staying down and fixing this properly is the right approach. While it would be great to suddenly find a magic sponge that solves 6 years of decay in a few months it's not realistic. We are better off rooting out the problems over a longer period of time across what will amount to 4 transfer windows before we play PL football again.

As much as I hate to think we are here for a while, I think you're right TV. The parachute payments will obviously cease, so we have to get back up by then. Next season might be more realistic.

Probably a question for another day/thread, but if you're looking to rebuild like that, would you choose Bruce as the man to do it?

The title of this image is Alan Hutton determined to help the visitors back into this game.

Looks to me more like. Alan Hutton has fucking well fell over again missed the ball and fouled the Cardiff player.... and has some bad tattoos.

Surprising Bruce doesnt remember how dirty Cardiff was just a few games back.

If he did he wouldnt play Westwood who is the easiest player to bully in AV. One of the reason he is never hurt is that he just do not engage in phycical situations (pointing doesn't count).
At least Bruce figured that out at halftime. Scrappy games like this is what we need Jedi for. Missed sorely today.

Sheffield and Barnsley drawing, Derby losing, Brentford equalise against Blose then miss a penalty to take the lead, Fulham beating Brighton...we could really do with 3 points today but we'll be lucky to scrape a draw.

Yes, but very lucky bouncing off the Cardiff player. We need some of the same luck.
