I like Bruce, but we need a progressive manager. Dean Smith? Rowett would have been my choice. Mcinness from Aberdeen? Not another dinosaur please.

Rowett would hardly be what I call a progressive manager.

Done well with limited resources, pressing football. Not an option amyway.

It’s the negative defend a nil nil, sit deep  with no variation of tactics or approach what ever the circumstances or the opposition.
It’s dull, it’s the way he plays. I have bad enough of it.

Rowett is just a younger version of Bruce, his sides play negative boring shit.

Today needed something different, anything just to make Fulham think. We all could have predicted that line up. Wasted opportunity. Another slog ahead.

Ossie Ardiles is our man. Five in midfield, five up front and a sweeper keeper.

We were set up to invite a goal from a team who never lose when they score first, when we never win when we concede first.

This season is a failure, and for entirely predictable reasons. However nice a guy he is, Bruce needs to fuck off now.

Last season Newcastle went out to win every game and expected to win every game. They got promoted. If we had that attitude, we’d be promoted.

Rowett is just a younger version of Bruce, his sides play negative boring shit.

And you know because you watch his teams play week after week after week, not just the times he plays Villa.

I think it’s fairly well known he plays a very pragmatic style.

I know because it's what the fans of the clubs he manages say and they do see it week after week. It's hardly a well kept secret, same as the McLeish style isn't, the Bruce style isn't and so on.

Sorry Bruce old chap but our negativity set us back today. There's just no coherence going forward.

I mentioned rowett as he seems to get the most out of his players. Does Bruce?
