    only thing was Knacker was playing against Newcastle so that tackle is allowed

    Well that was ****ing painful to watch.

    Xhaka was on a yellow for pretty much the whole match and we could have easily exploited it, but nah let's just not give a ****.

    Arsenal were pretty ****, it has to be said. But even when you're **** it's easy to beat us when we're THAT ****ing diabolical.

    Looking forward to the Brucie post match horseshit...

    It's all about hoping Fulham lose I suppose the situation is the same.

    Hope we stay and and that we get the takeover, otherwise it's another season with Steve

    They made 8 changes. And hammered us.

    Bruce is enept.

    I just want this season over.

    If there is no takeover then I’m not interested. I can’t watch Bruce and Shelvey any more.

    I firmly believe that Bruce's playing for goal difference atm.

    I think the players were unhappy today they weren't up for that ****

    I think there’s a very real likelihood we pick up 0 points before entering that final game

    Agree re Xhaka, but we should have put pressure on him as soon as he got a yellow rather than waiting for him to lose it again.

    It was a yellow, but why even ****ing bother going in hard that late on when it's injury time and we've clearly already lost? Just seems like he was wanting to make a name for himself after he came on as a sub by putting in a perfect crunching tackle, and he totally ****ed it up.

    They looked like I used to look turning up for a shift I knew would be awful.

    Bruce's thinking goal difference is worth a point, so he's being ultra cautious and that's why he's hated.. Its supposed to be entertaining

    I don’t think it’s that. He didn’t fancy the last 4 games.

    Make no mistake that is classic Bruce management.

    He got this game so wrong it’s beyond funny. Any normal manager and team given what was at stake would have at least tried.

    That was embarrassing.

    I honestly want someone to break Shelvey legs. Has anyone noticed he is never injured. That’s because he does nothing.

    Scot Parker must watch us and think how on earth are they ahead of us..

    Fulham are so much better at everything, but Bruce has the fortune of having Wilson and max

    Bruce's an atrocious manager

    Table doesn't lie.

    Fulham may have occasionally turned on the style, but they've had a **** season.

    You can’t complain that players aren’t trying and then complain that a player got booked for trying. ( read should have been booked)

    You can score 2 goals in a minute. There was time to get a draw and get a point and I would expect my players to the final whistle. I accept it was unlikely but it would never have happened if the players didn’t try until the final whistle.

    Not the point im making.. I'm saying Fulham play better football with a worse side. I'm saying Bruce is a dreadful manager that's living off two players way above anything Fulham have.

    I’m on the fence here.

    If we stay up and we end up with Bruce and that **** today. I think it will end it for me.

    If we did get relegated and it meant we sack Bruce and never have to see Shelvey mug again I’m not sure what I would swing for.

    Today is a perfect example of why Bruce should be nowhere near a football club.

    There's "trying" and there's making a tackle with the skill and subtlety of a one legged man at an arse kicking contest.

    Every team plays better football than us Sheff U do too. Sadly Bruce has scraped enough points to stay up, which shows just how bad the 3 teams below us are.

    Still some way to go before we're safe imo.

    Fulham are capable of beating Burnley ad they already have this season and they're more likely to beat saints than were ate man city.

    I feel were more than likley safe, but might need the win at Sheff United which would be intense if it does get that far.

    We're fat too negative and today was another example of why Bruce's not good enough... He's asking the players to do things they don't like.. I got the impression the players were dreading that
