They've just started playing 'Under Pressure' at the Shrewsbury pub I'm watching this at. Very apt!

Onomah was gutless for that second goal. Pulled out of the collision at last minute and cost us

Goodbye Mr Bruce, your work here is done.

I really hope so mate but don’t think he will go just yet

Appointing Bruce in the first place was the mistake.  All of this flows from that.

Agreed, I didn't want him as manager with his dead as a dodo style of football, but the management at VP thought he was the man for the job and now they know  he isn't. But going on our recent managers, will the selection of the next one be any better?

Bruce halted our slide into oblivion, but we're going to need someone with a brain to get us up. Prepare for a few more years yet of this shit team and this shit league.

s it too much to ask of the club to appoint a manager committed to the basics? Made fools of by a Villa fan again.

There are scientists at Cambridge who can programme wood slime to reproduce a map of the Tokyo underground.  I wonder if they could programme a potato to manage a football team.

I just yearn for the day when our players can run at similar speeds to the opposition ones.

Our sole tactic is get it wide. Nothing through the middle. Absolutely nothing.

But Brian, Bruce is a specialist at getting teams promoted. Surely it can't be down to his failings?

I can totally see why they appointed Bruce after RDM. But by the same rationale if it's not working and were effectively in free fall. He's too one dimensional to change things.

The sooner the better but got a feeling he’s here until it’s too late.

Never tire of reading this! See it on some thread or other every day but still makes me smile (an achievement indeed as I watch this tiresome bilge)

Just blow your whistle, ref and put us out of our misery. We're a bloody joke of a team.
