I was waiting for the first over reaction on this thread it didn't take long. Priority is promotion. It's only 5 days since our best performance of the season with a completely different team from today. Some perspective is required.

Bruce out! Hopefully only my opinion untill the next league game when it will potentially be Bruce in or possibly still Bruce out!

Of course I don't want to go out in this manner but if today was a life or death priority Grealish and Adomah would've played. That's the priority.

I see it as similar to when Boro knocked us out of the league cup, disappointing but it was all quickly forgotten as we won five in a row in the league either side of that game.

Same will happen here.

Or maybe the players in reserve are not as good as you think.

To beat fucking Peterborough? Come off it. Fucking hell, how about the manager shit himself and sent us out to win 1-0. One up front, a target man at that at home to a lower league team? Bruce can fuck right off

We just lost at HOME to Peterborough. Not Man U or Chelsea.

A good manager is also required.

We didn't just lose, we got hammered. That's what does it for me, they weren't plucky, lucky winners - they spanked us.

Way to destroy any momentum Steve.

And Stoke lost at 4th tier Coventry, it's the cup shocks happen, move on to the next much more important game

Overreaction?  Pissed off we have such an awful manager with no redeeming features at all.  Most of us on here could do a better job and at least try to play football.  Today has really pissed me off.

It's a shit result, and Bruce should be sacked tomorrow, but his crimes are far more serious than losing in the cup.

as long as Bruce follows Hughes out of the door I won't mind the comparison

And that's the point. Bruce has massively eroded the positivity from Monday.
