    What are we doing in training??

    Am I right in thinking that this isn't the first time we've lost 3 players to soft tissue injuries in th same game? (assuming that's what tonight's were?)

    We know that Bruce is old-school and likes a lot of running-confirmed by Shelvey the useless shite so are these injuries caused by our training regime or just bad luck?

    Mind, on a related note, it's not the first time Bruce hasn't been able to give coherent instructions to subs...

    ****ing ****.

    And yes, agreed Zip. Something isn't right, we are picking up injuries all over the place, so has to be trainning related in some way.

    6 injuries in 2 home games...

    Add the fact Fernández has been out for 8 games already...
    And Dummett, Longstaff and Gayle still can't get a game ahead of Lewis, Shelvey and Joelinton

    I'll tell you what we're not doing and that's developing players.

    Lewis has, I think, shown a lot of potential-he has a heap of natural ability but needs coaching in how to use it and in how /where to position himself. Much more of Bruce will ruin him.

    With proper coaching, I think we'd have a real player on our hands.

    We don't have proper coaches-not surprising when the interview process goes like this:

    'Good morning, I understand you'd like to be a coach at Newcastle United. Can I just ask what your name is?'

    'It's Steve'

    ''You're in'.

    We need Steve Keegan and Steve Benitez with Steve Shearer as striker coach.

    I dont understand why he brought Ritchie on for Krafth last night why not bring Dummett on and move Clark to right back but old brucey brings on a winger

    Yep, they were both in my mind too. They'll be off if he's still here in the Summer.
