Their obsession with comparing every single thing he does to Benitez is weird like, particularly when they ignore the fact they did broadly the same.

Yes they got beat off Brentford on the cup, but I don't remember them wanting Rafa sacked when they got tanked 3-0 by Oxford.

Starts calling out the fans. Beginning of the end I think. Didn’t he do it for you lot as well? I’m beginning to really despise him now.

When he was appointed I told me Mag mates that he'd be as hated as Pardew by the time he was gone and it's definitely heading that way. Only ex-SAFC managers I dislike more than him are Moyes and Parkinson

To be honest I don’t even know if I felt this much disdain towards Pardew. I honestly think it’s equal part horrific, abysmal, clueless football combined with his utterly deluded interviews. The recent Leeds game he said we matched them for 80 minutes when they had battered us from pillar to post.
 
We all know Bruce is one of football's biggest whingers.

But he's not wrong here like - with their squad and bad fortune with Covid, 12th is absolutely fine. The loss against will be frustrating for them, but Brentford are a decent side and it's not like they were going to win a trophy there based on a) the other teams left in; b) their history of never winning anything, ever. His tactics are sensible too, who the fuck do they think they'll sweeping away with that squad, who the fuck do they think would come in and go all gung-ho and it'd work? There aren't many Bielsas around who can turn water into wine, attacking football wise.

It's entitled mag delusion again. And the dynamic set up now, between a whinging Bruce at his worse but with righteousness on his side, versus their entitled deluded and very wrong fanbase will be f***ing piss funny to watch play out. You f***ing love to see it.

It’s hardly surprising mind. Alex Bruce goes on like his dad is a top class manager and regularly calls out supporters.

Aye, he dishes out as much stick as he gets. Certainly not as if it's some non-footballing kid of Bruce's whose just minding his own business.

His patter in press conferences is dreadful, it's always shifting the blame to the players not having enough quality or whatever everytime he goes on a bad run or loses games. It's actually the exact opposite of how 'successful' managers go about speaking to the press really.

He's cut from the same cloth as the likes of Allardyce, Moyes, Hughes, Pulis and co, surely it's about time they were all phased out.

Have to cut in here and say Moyes is doing a good job at West Ham.
