    After 30 games we were in sixth spot. Home draws since then against Blackburn, Millwall, QPR and the one at Cardiff have been punishing, especially as we were leading in three of them. The chance has been there, so we can't complain if we don't achieve it.

    If we had had Corberan from the start of the season we would comfortably be in the play offs if not automatic. Bruce gave us too much to do.

    It was not Bruce though who has dropped stupid points against the mighty Blues -Hull - Cardiff - Rotherham - QPR and were second best to Sunderland. Mixture of Corberon and total lack of quality!

    Looking back over the season, it hasn't just been a lack of quality from the players, it's been the lack of legs. Seeing virtually unknown players from other clubs easily outpacing some of ours has been an eye opener. But, we are where we are, just hope this can be rectified at season's end.

    Corberon needs to try some of the youngsters if after Sheffield it’s curtains. Sunderland were a very young side and out footballed us with energy and one touch football. But it won’t happen! Some of the subs and lateness of them have been baffling!

    Wouldn’t care less if Wallace or Swift left but not good enough for the Premier otherwise they would have been snapped up. No other championship club will want them either with their high wages. Too many average players on big salaries who don’t give a f uck!

    All the clubs, with the possible exception of Burnley, have had a period where their results have been surprisingly poor. We, though, started off very badly indeed and that was down to Bruce, who clearly couldn’t manage the players, he was past it, well past it and his son is not a good coach.
