Have to say i struggle to have any sympathy for any of these guys, Mourinho or Bruce, whoever, they get paid vast amounts of money, the rewards that are bestowed upon these managers is the stuff of winning lottery numbers coming up every week, I don't hold any malice towards them getting this kind of payday, but once they take on a job they deliver or else, it's that simple really, if a manager takes on this roll and says we will get promotion in 2 seasons then it's 2 seasons, decision has to be made to keep or let go, in Bruce's case Fulham was it for me.

We could win the next two games but Steve will still be binned when the International break comes.  Stone cold fact

He has such glowing recommendation from his time at Valencia. I sincerely hope not!

Interesting Ads. Would not surprise me at all, Percy in the Telegraph is insinuating 4 points could not be enough to save him come the break in the press tonight.

He’s dead man walking and all the signs are there...

The consistent face saving comments around his record

The constant harping on about how we were ‘90 mins away’ last season

The references to losing  6 players and he’s had to rebuild

The fact Purslow hasn’t come out and backed him whatsoever

Also in his interview there seemed to be an attitude and pressure getting to him .

He was asking everyone do you really think I'm that bad?
Am I that bad?

He's a desperately wanting the time
However the performances are not exactly high levels neither is there a consistency in the  football

Anything other than a win tomorrow will see him out
Preston have lost 5 out of 5 and conceded 11 goals scored 2 away record.

If Bruce can't find a way then it's goodbye.

Milwall could be a loss as either way as they don't seem to have the right balance to play them

That said two big wins maybe wishful in scoreline against Preston and Milwall will give some time

However I get JT in as player manager

I have a feeling in my loins that this is his last full week as our manager.

well  most of us want him gone but in the end it's too late for this season. Lets hope the club don't appoint another instant-fix as a replacement.

Yes, I think he'll be gone this week. He's like a floundering boxer on the ropes.

Have a rest Steve.

well he's a bit left-field footy. 2 seasons at reading, one good, one bad....I'm not sure many people would see him as the guy to get us up quickly.
