So Steve, we're shit when we play against 10 men, we're shit when we have 10 men, and we're shit when it's 11 v 11. I'm spotting a pattern emerging.

You just know the "it's harder to play against 10 men" line is on its way.

We’ve had the easiest fucking start imaginable. He’s done a truly terrible job, lazy and dreadful.

Steve, will you be here at the weekend?

I’ll be there or thereabouts.

So are we actually going to make a meaningful decision now or will it be more drifting along doing more and more damage? That's what this is right now, the manager is all but finished. The players aren't playing for him, the crowd aren't behind him, what is the point?

Bruce didn't even watch the penalty being taken.

I want him out, he’s been disgraceful, but I wouldn’t particularly hold that against him.

Dole queue? He'll be on a beach miles away sunning his fat arse with his pay off in addition to having been paid 3m per year for being a fucking failure.

You really expect him to look up from his takeaway menus?

He’ll still want and probably get another job. Even with a fat load of cash.

Going down to 10 men is a test of managerial nous and team cohesion.

Indeed, we couldn't have hand picked an easier start to the season. He's monumentally fucked it up.

Fulham and the mighty Ipswich didn’t have too much trouble with 10 men...
