    Toney

    Just scored a cracking pen and has had 2 disallowed.

    Why do we not still have him? Clearly a player with potential when with us and was let go for peanuts.

    Another joke.

    Think is - Toney wasn't a prem player when he left us.

    I'm really pleased for him and absolute fair play for pulling it off but he could of gone the other way and disappeared into a solid lower league player.

    I don't think we can really blame Rafa, or even the club for letting him go when he did.

    Also, remember he said he wanted to leave for the regular game time.

    What is worse for a player,
    To be Brucied or Pardewed?

    Ooh, hard one.

    Pardew managed to fuck up Tiote and Cabaye in one fell swoop by making them swap positions.

    Bruce is, if possible, an even shitter coach who's taken Rafa's defence and ruined it single-handedly.

    He's ruined Sean and Matty Longstaff.

    He admitted Miggy is way better as a no.10 then never plays him there.

    And he continues to play Joelinton. And he plays Hayden as a CB with Fernandez and Schar on the bench. And he plays Murphy and Ritchie as wingba.....


    It's Bruce, isn't it.

    The fact that Ashley hires "Managers, Coaches" That do this to players continually proves how far this club has regressed in the 13 years under Ashley. I can't think of another team who's fans have the same sort of terms to describe their managers incompitence.

    Being cabbaged is worse IMO. Pardew capably managed to turn Ba from a goal machine into an unhappy player by pushing him out left to accommodate Cisse. But, Bruce’s effect on Lejeune and Schar puts him in a different league.

    Much as I detest Pardew the huge wooden spoon goes to Bruce. Pardew had very little idea how to manage/coach a team but Bruce has even less.
