But when does a footballer stand up and say I gave my best today, they aren't, they don't and they get away with it from us and contractually.Disgrace.
Because Alan Hutton is under strict instructions to launch 50 yard punts to Hogan?Have a word with yourself.

The manager wants him to do it. Or the manager doesn't want him to do it and doesn't do anything about it.Neither reflects particularly well on InBruceWeTrust does it?

This football diet of spuds, cabbage and pig's feet (waiter do you have pig's feet? No sir, it's the shoes) is killing me. How about accepting defeat providing we are entertained. Let's get a manager who is not terrified of losing but is terrified of getting the Bolton treatment for inflicting endless boredom on us. Actually, playing Samba at centre forward against Hull was the only unpredictable thing Bruce has ever done in his time with us.Do you seriously think Dr T has spent all that money just to settle for that?

Grealish being crocked, Elmohamady going off, Kodja unfit - arguably our 3 best attacking options all missing. That does not excuse anything that happened yesterday but it does suggest Hutton launching it 50 yards was not a plan but a consequence.
