    I have never defended Bruce. I have said that players are partly to blame and Ashley is not going to sack him. I have never said that he does a good job.

    You’ve made repeated sarcastic comments about everything being Bruce’s fault. You have been defending him. Now you seem to have changed tack but with the continued theme of seeking attention.

    Yes I have said at those one dimensional views annoys me. I have also said I am sorry and try to change.

    It's not one dimensional views though mate. You have stated that the late great Sir Bobby was in your view the greatest manager we ever had. If that is true then you will know the difference a manager can make to a set of players.
    I know its Newcastle under Ashley, but if we can get players like ASM, Wilson, Fraser, Lejuene,Schar and Dubravka to play here I won't have anyone say we can't get a better manager than Bruce.
    Look at Southampton, their manager, and I hate to say it but remember Pboro naming him as a successor to Rafa. On the continent managers coach players and the hierarchy sign players they have to work with.
    So again, we can't get better is wrong as many a good young coach would come under the circumstances at this club. Charnley and Co can't be bothered to search for better. We get dinosaurs from these shores everytime. Rafa approached the club. Other than him its been Allardyce, Hughton, Kinnear, Carver, McClaren, Pardew and now Bruce. Its lazy recruitment.
    The second part, where you say sorry and you have tried to change, NO don't. It is your view, we all might not agree with it as I have just disagreed with it but you are a fan and entitled to your opinion. Its just in football its all opinions and very rarely set in stone facts.

    Thats a great post and thank you from your views. I really do want the team to play enjoyable entertaining football. Ashley has appointed so many bad managers that I just dont have faith at his choices. At this moment watching the team hurts. After yesterdays game it seems that Bruce is giving up slowly but surely. He has no ability to fix this. He seems to be dead man walking.

    Bruce is a dead man walking a Zombie who is sucking the life’s blood out of the fans and the region

    He says he is a fan I dispute this as if he looks at his managerial history he would see that he is just not good enough for the job. He has turned on the fans now and I firmly believe he has lost the majority of the players in the dressing room. It’s only a matter of time before he is sacked and another cheap Ashley replacement is brought in

    As far as opinions go you keep posting what you feel as it’s a democratic forum and your entitled to your own opinion. Don’t get upset if posters don’t agree with you though.

    SB cannot possibly be a fan. He wouldn't have took the job in the first place if he was.

    He's full of shit. After the Brentford game, he said he'd have to accept the criticism which would rightly (his words) come his way.

    The criticism duly arrived and that's his response.

    Pfft.

    He's also previously said he doesn't take any notice of or listen to the criticism they get on social media...more lies, clearly.

    And I'm still in the dark as to what he thinks the benefits of having a go at the fans might be??

    To please his boss ? Ashley hasn't stopped hating us.
