The appointment of Tony Pullis was the start of our demise when he was allowed to take charge of everything scouting, transfers etc and now we are a run away train heading in the wrong direction. i almost feel sorry for Bruce because what do you do with a set of players that simply don't have any bottle our on pitch management is really poor at 2-1 up you need to do what Swansea did i the first half and kill the game, get free kicks time waist, When we sack Bruce which other one of his mates is Gourlay going to employ.
Have to agree who heartedly this is when I stopped going regularly
Didn’t want to watch 4 centre halves and 10 blokes behind the ball hoofing it and playing for time from minute one
Absolute joke, no kids coming through all about bodies blocking space for draws and maybe nicking a win from a set piece so uninspiring not a good platform to built anything on
Compared to RdM and Mowbray it was disgusting
We played a certain way with Roy but no where near as the dinosaur Bo ll ocks we played under Pulis

You’re so right about Tony Putrid!
During his last 18 months with us we only needed a ball carrying midfielder who could break the opposing lines as Morrison started to fade and a PROPER centre forward and not a plank like Rondon and Ideye Brown.
We needed to spend around £30m to £35m at that point but Pulis was too stubborn and Lai was too penny pinching.
When we thrashed Chelsea 3-0 in that final home game of Pulis’s second season with us we were as decent as we’ve ever been at Premier level.
We were so close to long term stability.
The season we went down we actually won the first two matches and were only an Hegazi f u c k up and 7 minutes away from winning the first three games until he switched off at home to Stoke.
7 points from 3 matches and then a cluster f u c k after that.
Bilic was the best manager we have had since Megson and Hodgson and possibly Mowbray.
Allardyce was also a very good manager who we tried to short change on transfers.
We reap what we sew.
Bruce has been in charge for 25 games, won 7 lost 8 and 10 draws. A total of 31 points.
This season 10p from 11, if he kept this up that's 41 over the season
Bruce has been unable to turn it round that’s a fact.
Mind you in recent Years we really have accumulated a total pile of dross. We are the stand out champions in this regard.
I was impressed with Bilic especially with the deadly pairing of Zohore and Austin he was given.
I don’t know who thought Grant and Diagana were worth £38Milion, and that Sawyer, Robinson Ivanovic etc would keep us up.
Big Sam to his credit knew a decent player, and a bad ones. Livermore, Grant, Phillips, Sawyers Diagana the polish bloke (another diamond) and Kipre were out.
Then came the Val recruits, one season wonder Mowatt, Reach – Oh dear. Hughill ( Really). Then the curse of the injury prone, A centre half and a forward that I’ve never actually seen during their illustrious career with us.
Then to list some of the other lot that have dragged us down who are still today in the squad Like Bartley and Furlong. But there are far too many others to mention.
I can only name a few incoming players in recent memory who I rate
Piererra, Diagne , Yokuslu, Clarke, Wallace, Honourable mention to Andy Carroll.
Mid table team, who is having a laugh!!
Bum squad, bum Manger and Bum owner
For goodness sake! Pulis got us 10th in the Prem beating the likes of Liverpool, Man U, Chelsea, spurs, etc, one of our most successful managers in recent years. We didn’t like the football but teams hated playing against us. Now they love playing us because we collapse like dominoes.
Is TGH injured or doesn't Bruce rate him.
