Considering some of the players we have in Lansbury, Grealish,. Hourihane etc, Bruce has is playing dire football! Why are we playing hit n hope to Hogan. Nothing interesting or exciting about us at all.

I hope Dr X is witnessing this shite.

He is there today. I hope he has a rethink if we don't win this. His money is being spunked up the wall by crap coaching.

To top things off now TSM mk1 is summerising the Old Firm game just to remind you of the good old days.

SHA will try and win this 2nd half
Villa will struggle to score so take the draw and move on
Season is over

Who should we have played upfront with Hogan out of interest?

Quite simply, the worst half of football it has been my misfortune to witness this season. Promotion next season ? You're having a laugh.

we need a big lump up front
cant believe we have no depth in the squad to replace our main front man
Hogans talents will never shine the way he is being played up top

It's a sign of how crap we played and lack of options that i'd stick Gabby on second half.

my cashout on nil nil is 50 quid
220 if i leave it to fulltime.................
Cash outs at the bookies are a rip off - much better to lay the bet off on an exchange (e.g.Betfair). You can make the opposite bet (Lay 0-0) on Betfair at odds of 3.3 at the moment so if you lay e.g. 25 you will have a liability of 57.50

So if your bet wins you win 220 and lose 57.50
If your bet loses you lose your stake at the bookies but make 25 on Betfair (less 5% commission)

Obvs you'd want to be laying whatever your bookie stake was or a bit more so you win whatever happens. The o-o will come down as the second half progresses so you can lay a bit more as you go along to guarantee you win whatever the result

Bruce's plan A at every team he has managed is to have one big bloke up front to focus on. Why did he buy Hogan?

At least he has a knack of netting in derbies I suppose.
