I think the club should act, we are in a slump and something is needed to get this team ready for the play offs.

He's dropped the ball at a crucial time.  Still if we go up via play-offs no one will be complaining.  When you look at the state Villa were in when Bruce took over we have improved a lot.  But maybe he's taken us as far as he can.  Only time will tell.

The worst thing about Bruce is the way we amble into pressure situations. We shambled our playoff effort last year and shrugged our shoulders when it went tits up. We started shockingly last year and it was all 'the season doesn't start until it rains'. We smashed Blues and caved absolutely next game. We tonked Wolves and were humilated at home to QPR. There's been no time under Bruce wher I don't assume his motto is 'what will be will be'.

Can you honestly see him bringing success in play offs? I’m sure he won’t so why wait?

Exactly, it's the "well what do you expect me to do about it, this is what happens in this league" attitude that fucks me off, useless c**t.

Get rid. He has no idea! Not a clue how to set the team up against anybody half decent.
Promotion via tbe play-offs? No chance with him in charge.

Yep, we just trundle into the next game.
I said on the match thread, today summed him up.
We beat a 10 man Reading at home so do the same again, whatch us get tactically out thought and do nothing until they score.
Even start the next half the same.

Exactly

Of course we won't. But what have you seen in the last five games where we've got 4 points out of 15 against teams considerably worse than we'll play in the playoffs to think that will happen?
