45 minutes to save your job, Brucie, although I’m not sure you really care

Says it all when an 8 year old asks why Bruce has done something and you can't give a sensible answer. Atrocious defending, players out of position, 11 of our players on the pitch but they are no team. I don't think without playing players out of position you could field a more unbalanced team, I am beginning to wonder if Bruce has lost the dressing room. Shows how bad it is when BV is using language like "we're crap".

Not quite sure how Bruce is still in charge for this game...
But he is and his team selection has rang true to form...
Livermore was as good as he's been for years on Saturday, dropped.
Grant came on and was woeful, cost us 3 points with his p*ss poor penalty, starts.
Townsend who has been p*ss poor for a year now, starts, despite us probably paying big wages on Pieters.
I think Bruce must pick his team backwards...
Anyway, like Steve says, he has 45 minutes to save his job. We lose this, his position becomes untenable as far as I'm concerned.
Personally can't see how we're going to get back into it as despite our huffing and puffing, when it comes to the crunch we're not getting bodies into the box.
Preston on the other hand look like they're going to score every time they come forward.
So it doesn't look likely, but who knows. We clearly have better players if Bruce can motivate them to be arsed. It will be a first if he does.

Camera`s keep focusing on his replacement in the crowd.
Roy Keane.

A double sub
Zzz, god this is dire
A bit of intensity at last
Grant produces a good save

Bruce obviously has to go as I genuinely wouldn’t be able to explain how we’re trying to play (head height crosses with one short man in the box?). But goodness me, some of these players… Karlan Grant is in a league of his own, but Molumby, Townsend, Swift, even TGH so below par tonight.
Though my sympathy for Bruce is limited.

The final 4 minutes?!

and they are passing back and to, across the back line like we are winning the game
I wonder why Keane was there just to see an old teammate or in case we lost?

Well, I know it sounds terrible but I'm glad we lost tonight because surely, SURELY that means the end of Mr Bruce
