So you think he reads and gives a toss about what a couple of dozen people on here think? Seriously.

A good result today particularly given how injuries and illness have disrupted the side. Shows that there is a spirit and some fight in the squad. We have to use this as a platform to start another run of positive results. I can only comment on what I heard on the radio but it sounded like the win was a deserved one.

I'm sure he gets "correspondence" and knows what the general mood is. I remember MON suffered the same when at Leicester and made a point of phoning up the people once he'd turned it around. If you're gonna hold grudges and rub peoples faces in it, at least do it from a position of strength AFTER you've won the argument.....

Always one game away from a crisis?  Welcome to managing a proper big club with higher expectations.  Which you are not exactly managing brilliantly you cock end.  And anyway a second bad run of 5 or 6 games is not 1 game.  Just regurgitating the bollocks he came out with at the start of the season.

Percentage wise in terms of satisfaction with Bruce i'd say it is. Certainly i don't know any non H&V members who are calling for Bruce to get a new contract and a payrise

Nail on the head.

As I've said he played for 10 years at Man. United fer christ sake. You think Fergie would just let 4-5 winless run as "unlucky lads, let's try again next week." He'd be hurting and working night and day to put it right and they always did.

I get the feeling SB has got a bit of a dressing down from behind the scenes in last few days judging by the tweets from the owner and Wyness since Brentford so when you're under pressure you can lash out.

Oh come on that's a cheap shot. I doubt any football fan thinks that, even Man City supporters.

Maybe so, but those that aren't motivated enough to come on boards like this, i'd say ranged between disappointment and resignation/hope from those i know. I wouldn't say any of them think he's doing a great job.. And lets face it they're not usually the ones who start chanting for the manager to go at games.
