    Okay Might Not Figure For 6 Matches

    Says Bruce so looks like the mates Livermore and Reach and plus Molumby will figure instead!

    Well Bruce can’t moan if we get off to a bad start and many start calling for his head!

    Only just over 2000 tickets allocated for Boro which is far lower than usual visitors allocation and from what I hear - loads still left!

    Last season these tickets would have sold out immediately!

    Bruce has to start playing the best team and not the dross from last season or do one!!!

    Getting off to a decent start is this imperative!

    As I said in a previous post, put him on the bench and play him for a half an hour or so if required. Surely, he could manage that. How long does it take for young men to be fit to play 90 minutes of football?

    I agree but Bruce says Reach is first class and El Capitano must play! Useless both of them and a waste of f uckin space! No doubt Phillips will start tomorrow too - another player who should do one!

    As usual, same old b o l l o x from a idiot manager.

    Best part of 15% of the season missed if he doesn’t play for the first 6 or 7 matches!😤

    Just nonsense.

    I remember you said Okay would be better on one leg than Livermore. 100% correct Mick!!

    Makes my blood boil and won’t be happy with expense going to Boro - if it’s the same old
    s hite with idiot Bruce coming out with one of his classic excuses!

    Bruce reverts to type FFS!! As Leicester says, why not play him for 30/45 minutes and ease him in? Surely this will speed up his match fitness as well as fielding for us a far better player than Reach/Livermore. Talk of him missing the first 6-7 games is a joke

    While I can appreciate caution I doubt very much that it'll be six games. Bruce has form for this type of interview.

    I've lost count of the amount of times he's given press conferences down the years along the lines of 'we're down to the bare bones. The lad could barely walk yesterday but it was nice to see him out on the grass today. We've a number of walking wounded '.

    Only for said players to start and have absolute stormers. He might not start on Saturday but I wouldn't be surprised if he does. Really don't see it being six games though.

    I would hope to see him given a start against Sheff Unt in the cup.

    I wouldn't expect him to start but hopefully miss 3 matches? would be better.
