I'd love to know the thought process that ended with Glen "wanky" Whelan as our midfield anchor

That has to have been one of the worst, if not the worst first half since Bruce arrived.

As an aside always thought Boyd would be a great signing for someone at this level. Good player.

Sounds as bad as the team sheet looks.

The selection has given the performance we thought it would.
Which is exactly what everyone was saying last week at Fulham when the team was announced. It's de-ja vu all over again.

It's almost as there was a collective "job done" the moment we got into second place.  Instead we go into a Bruce inspired win-less run.

This is crap. If you'd told me that beating Blues and going second would be the high point of the season, I wouldn't have believed you. It's like everybody's stopped trying.

There's a lot of competition for that award too.

I don't think it's been as a good as that.

if you showed Steve Bruce a photograph of an arsehole, and then of an elbow, do you think he'd be able to tell the difference?

I think he'd probably just play the photograph in central midfield, mate

Thor looked wanked all season

Plays DM and we have a decent player on our hands and he works in the system

and then he fecking changes it

maybe he had no choice to play him elsewhere last game or two but you put him back DM today and not bring fecking Whelan back in .

Onamah and been useless for mths too.

Lansburys has shagged Bruces daughter , whats the point have having him in the 18

We all knew looking at the team sheet it was idiotic. Don't give me this shit about him being experienced etc. If we can all see it the bloke paid to see it should. Don't start slow, weak players if they can't even  pass the ball to each other. Started with 9 men.

Jesus, the defending today is dismal.  Absolute bollocks.  Bruce can fuck off, again.

Not sure how you can blame Bruce for he fact his defenders are having a bad day at the office
