    Bruce, pay attention.....

    Desperately short at the back, we need someone in but the window is shut. Ok we need something to happen to get us to January, may i suggest the following who are Free Agents!

    Robert Huth age 35
    James Collins age 34
    John Terry age 38

    Collins was a very good defender for us before moving south, give him a contract till january, why not? Then maybe play Hutton and Taylor as full backs or if you want a back 3 buy Huth, play huth chester and collins with El ghazi and Bolasi as wing backs? This would enable 2 up front Abraham and koj up front.

    Can i pick the team cos Bruce has no idea!

    Hes got to do something or he is a gonner!

    I am staggered by Bruce’s decisions sending former captain Tommy Elphick out to Hull when we have only one other recognised centre back, its pure insanity !!!

    Elphick once formed a sound partnership with James Chester which was rapidly de-assembled by Bruce

    I appreciate the arrival of John Terry one of this paring would be superfluous

    On yesterdays show its obvious Steve thinks “tactics” are small mint breath freshners

    How he can justify playing of 3 players of our back 4 out of position ??? is a sign of Bruce's stubborn ignorance

    His pièce de résistance being its never Bruce's fault if things don't work out – his constant stream of excuses is wearing very thin !!!

    I don't know where I got this strange opinion but doesn't good ol Steve send/set the teams out ???

    Watch next week when Bruce will reveal "who's next to be thrown under the bus" following our frighteningly ****e performances ??


    My monies on “The Tea Lady”

    The Aberdeen boss warned Bruce not to leave the bid for Mckenna too late which meant our intentions were visible. Sheer naivity or bad management? Letting Elphick go gave the imoression he had a replacement in the bag.

    He has to look for a free agent to help or we we are stuffed.

    The manager ain't going anywhere, so we just have to hope beyond hope that he wakes up one day in the next 2 weeks with a whole new philosophy.
    I actually like him, he's supposed be the best in the business for the Championship but he has been extremely poor and incredibly error ridden. Too set in the past? Too old to change? Used all his luck up with Hull? Who knows but he's very lucky to be in the job.
