And how we all (or most ) slagged off Doug.  SB would have gone after Saturday.  Ahhh ...  the Doug days...

His post match interview is the top video here https://www.facebook.com/avfcofficial/videos
He's blaming the strikers for not taking 'wer chances'

I counted two. Of which we took one, which I suspect was created by Adomah who decided "sod his instructions I am going for it".

It was hardly a case of us peppering their goal for 90 mins.

It's a funny game isn't it, I wonder what would have happened if Andre put his one on one away.

Anyway, Bruce out!

For the third league game in a row, we looked lively for ten minutes, didn't convert that into a winning position and then proceeded to play hoofball until the inevitable cockup being under slight pressure caused.

38 league games under Bruce, 18 of those have been runs of 1 win in 9 and 0 wins in 9. Regular runs like that are going to give you zero chance of promotion.

"We showed fight and resilience"

Maybe he's getting us back for being so mean to Eric Black.

Ok, definitely time for the sack now.

The interview was deluded.

Another 'fun' stat. In Bruce's 38 league games our second highest scoring striker is Gabby with 2.

Your stats really aren't helping his cause are they?
