Steve Bruce, honestly. A professional manager who can't, or won't, see the problem that is obvious to all. Get the fuck out of our club please.

One up front at home to the mighty Brentford says all you need to know about Bruce -  Hopefully the new owners have taken some good advice about a replacement for the dinosaur - it's all very well bringing in some decent players on loan but the minute Bruce and co get control of them they turn to shit

One thing's for sure, carry on like this and any notion of keeping Bruce in order to establish stability is dead and buried.

I have a feeling that as a club we will remain largely moribund until we get a manager who has us playing with some flair.

It's just all way too attritional.

I really hope we’re getting a centre half in.

It would be great just once if we could score first in a league game and not have to fight back to get something from the game.

We have one at RB. What makes you think if we got a new one he’d be played at CB?
