Shocking away performance. Exactly what we saw last year.

Mentality was all wrong from first whistle. Yes you need to be cautious but simply refusing to cross the halfway line. Shameful.

It's not good enough considering what we have spent and have in the squad.

At least we're in the pack this season but there is a gulf between us and Wolves. They'll get automatic promotion comfortably I reckon.

Completely predictable you just knew Bruce would set us up like that, we should have sacked that idiot when we had the chance.

Fair play to Hutton.  Put in a good shift.

It was my biggest fear.

I said in the pre match thread I wanted us to have a go and have an attempt at controlling the game. We failed misraebly on both counts. It's simply not in Bruce's management DNA to go to a tough away ground and look to attack.

It will be the same at SHA in two weeks time.

I could cope more with losing 3-2 in an end to end game. That would show we're continuing to improve. Tonight shows we're flat track bullies at this level.

Mind you as mich as we blame Bruce, the players need to take some stick as well. Awful

Fucking atrocious. What a perfect comparison on the pitch, the future vs the past. You cannot consistently give up possession against good sides. The midfield was absolutely hopeless and Whelan put in the worst central midfield performance I've ever seen. No pace, no plan and frankly we were completely outclassed.

Bruce has shown tonight he will never succeed.

Back to our August form.

Hutton, O'Hare and perhaps Onomah the only ones that seem bothered. Our forwards were shocking tonight. Bruce has to take some of the blame for that set-up.

Clearly not any better than last year. How on earth have Wolves got so far ahead of us?

Garbage.  I’d love to know what do at BMH?  It’s not training that’s for sure.   
BRUCE OUT.
