It's crap to watch and the tactics are non-existent but whilst we are picking up points, the owners won't be looking for a new Manager.  Like others, I think we could be so much better with another man at the helm.  I reckon we are three short of being in contention for promotion, a winger, forward and more dominant central midfielder.   I've been saying Bruce out for a long time and haven't changed my mind but I don't think they will change now.

I think the squad is three players away from winning the league. Three intelligent loans.

But you need a game plan too - that's why I want Bruce out.

Come into the big boy's playground and I will show you what a betting touch is.  Bearing in mind I am a pants wetter.

Big boys playground ?? Grow up FFS.

Maybe you'd like Remi Garde back again ??

His prep for the season was severely ruined - no obvious man to come in who you could nail on would do better.  If we can get the loan signings right and SB can  work out a  winning formula then skies the limit

Groundhog day, too many points to sack him but not enough points or quality to think we can get promotion. Add in a handful of posters insulting anyone who isn't happy, a few requests for a list of managers who'd be better.  The only difference in the last 18 months is the number of people who are fed up with his bullshit.

If we got those loans in, say, Bolasie, Abrahams and a tough central midfielder and we click, we could do really well.  But Bruce, as much as he seems good at bringing loans players in, also seems to hold us back with the stifling style of play.   Stick or twist? God knows.

As you say, god knows.

I'd twist. Rafa did it in one.

We have every advantage - we should look the dominant team in the majority of games.

Win Wednesday and we're joint top. Put a score on of 3 and we might be top proper, depending on how Leeds fair

The season is going to be a right merry-go-round, that's for sure.
