Popular Post rubberman Posted October 10, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted October 10, 2017 Well I'm glad the international break is over. It's no fun watching an uninspiring manager trying to get the best out of a perennially underperforming squad, serving up dull football which results in a few expected wins against inferior teams by the odd lucky goal. Oh... 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the 2 pictures below as a case of "Wait for it, wait for itttt..." Form guide I think you'll find being top of the table is a country mile from where we are right now ( figure of speech ) tell you what throw in his Rotherham party piece and then tell me his recent record is not good - I fully appreciate that you are only comparing his time at Cardiff against Bruce's time at Villa and also remember I am not a Warnock - please don't convince yourself of this - nothing is further from the truth - I just honestly believe he would be doing a better job - which your graphs conclude 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay fine, but don't hold Warnock up as some shining example of what could have been if in reality, you'd have been equally as, if not more, irked by the prospect of appointing him! I don't care if people are 'against Bruce' (although I do question how that fits with supporting the team, of which he is a component) but when it boils down to stuff like this it just becomes petty and unnecessary.

I have stated several times I'm not a Warnock fan - just stating in my view he would be doing better than Bruce and yes I would have felt the same level of disappointment if he had got the job as to what I felt when Bruce was unveiled. I can't agree with your sentiment about not supporting the current incumbent in our hot seat - see McLeish, O'Leary , Sherwood. you like Bruce which is fair enough however there are a number in here who do not which is also ok 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if he's doing so well it's time to invest in 'yesterday men' In that case Cardiff, looking at results and league position, got the better „Yesterman“ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I get from this thread... There are some who will never be happy with Bruce. He could win every game by at least 3 nil for the rest of the season and deliver delicious freshly baked cherry pies to their doorsteps every morning, but they will still complain about him, or they wanted a kebab instead. Good for them. Some try to counter the negativity by defending Bruce like champions, almost as if Steve Bruce has acquired some negatives or CC footage of them doing something seedy in a back alley. Good for them. Least of all, are those wasters who cant make up their mind after 10 months, who have seen Bruce have a good September, and wont at the least make up their mind until the last game in October. These sad people don't contribute anything to the whole Bruce In/Out argument, and are no fun. This is where I am. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about 3 of our throw-ins in a single game where we either, retain possession, create a goalscoring oppertunity or heaven forbid even score a goal.
