    I liked Ghost, too, although by the end he was a far cry from the happy, silly, positive poster he used to be.

    Back to the thread and this is absolutely spot on and highlights something we've always known-Bruce can not take criticism of his tactics. Of the team, yes-he's happy to admit they didn't play well but when anyone questions his tactics, formations, subs, etc, he imeediately goes on the offensive and almost always has a dig at the fans.

    Frankly, it's pathetic and the comparison with Trump in the way he dismisses anything negative about his own role in our performances as 'fake news' is as worrying as it is accurate.

    To be fair to Trump, he has a plan, follows it through and says it as he sees it. Bruce has no plan, waffles away for hours and deflects questions when they are uncomfortable.
    After being questioned on the team’s stats he replied that stats can be used to show anything. TBF this is often true but not in this case where most show us as the worst in the league and none show us out of the bottom half. If he were to come up with a stat that showed he was doing a good job, then fine, but we’re still waiting.
    It’s quite clear he’ll say anything to try to delay the inevitable and keep his salary rolling in. As I said in another thread, along with Joe, his appointment was another huge Ashley mistake and he was warned against both.

    Why oh why didn’t Ashley give the same money to Rafa? (It’s alright I know the answer).

    Time will tell, I guess.
    I do think they pop on from time to time. It's odd how some posters emerge having registered many, many years ago with specific opinions but only a handful of posts to their names.

    Yes it’s very odd. Now, about that money hungry stooge for Ashley......

    Well, that is understandable when one looks at Brian Reade on Twitter.

    When we win, It was all Bruce.
    When we loose it's only the players.

    You ought to ban Zip for that June. Only a short one though as he only swears when it's tongue in cheek.
