Would be surprised if he didn't get the next two.

Could be done and dusted after Bristol.

Might remove the question mark and replace it with an exclamation mark.
Yes please.

Difficult games at Pulisboro and Bristol, 2 defeats and he's gone. Either way I think he'll be gone in January. If not its because we've won 3 on the bounce, which we won't.

Nice Guy
Limited ability
Record of promotions
Not happening here
Dr T seems a nice Guy, I think he will give him time till end of the season I am not sure who is available on a short tenure.
If this season is fucked, get rid bring in a short term motivational manager and plan ahead.

Sack him now. Once again we have been schooled by a team with lesser resources.

He has failed.

Get rid, now.

Then Wyness can go and get Alan Curbishley and Gerry Francis to spearhead our new dynamic forward-thinking styles of play.

We don't go up this season. So looking to next season now the main question is do we trust Bruce again to try for promotion. With a team of youth team players and the remaining journeymen we have that are too shit to be sold for any amount of money?

FFP is going to gut the club this summer so how will we cope and approach it. Competing against 3 teams coming down who will be loaded with spending power.

Serious trouble I fear.

Surely it's a matter if time now. Going to be another bleak couple of games coming up. Not sure who can turn this club around though

Fuck off Bruce and take your prehistoric coaches and football with you.  The next time you should be allowed inside Villa Park is as a paying customer you overpiaid fucking doombrain!
