BBB, we have plenty of injured players, their not making much of a difference right now, Bartley is playing like he is injured, two broken legs I would say.
Perhaps we should let the injured players return to health before we play them lol.
Can we have a whip round to pay Bruce off, performance related pay, £3.36p should cover it

Gouchan has plenty of money (well West Broms money). Perhaps he could offset some of that.

The excuses keep coming
Injured players,
Missed transfer deadlines
Need more transfer windows
Lack of quality
Players paid far too much
No center forward
No striker
Shortage of center half
No full back cover
We deserved more
Ref decisions going against us
Our effort can't be criticized
The records show's played 10 won 1
Steve just clear off

That must be it. Off you go, Bruce.
RE: "TIME, Mr Bruce"?? - Baggiebob(BBB) - 05-10-2022
I repeat:
Bruce should of his own volition resign even to save face. Lai would understand that, and he should as well.
As I've said on a couple of occassions, Bruce has lost the dressing room, and if you have that, the players are not playing for him even though we mostly have most possession in most games.
JUST GO, retire, and enjoy your life playing scrabble.

Lai is doing what - the same as Bruce and Gourlay - the 3 wise men come to mind.
How have we ended up with these idiots running our club.

No manager would ever resign these days, and nor should they, there is no loyalty to them by clubs so its a two way street these days. Bruce has to go, as an outsider I can see that but he has a contract and the club will need to pay him off if they want him gone. With Lai being invisible and making seriously dodgy loans and dividend payments I am not sure he will allow the club to pay off Bruce. I listen to a podcast called The Price of Football and they were talking about the financial situation at the club a week or so ago and they were concerned over your current situation.

I wonder if Gouchan knows there are no parachute payments for clubs relegated to league one for him to "use".
