What a start to my holidays, what a belter. Glad I bought him cans for the train

AKA everyone knows Bruce is gone, everyone knows Fonseca is his replacement but we can’t actually say it yet

If that’s the same kid I know, he couldn’t shout coal. Bruce would be an improvement

Favre seems like he has the CV that I'd go for out of all of them tbh. He's been in relegation scraps before, he's built clubs up and he's managed at the very top level. Plus, it'll wind Palace fans up if he gets it and we beat them on Saturday after he turned them down.

Noticed he wasn't in the Platinum section on Sunday. He must have been busy when Staveley rang him.

I only hope that there isn’t too many cooks in the kitchen between PIF, Staveley, Reuben and whoever the next DOF is

I’m telling you, man. He’s trying literally everything to get sacked. I’m amazed he didn’t run on the pitch and curl one out in the centre circle on Sunday afternoon

This is a disappointing knock-on effect of the “old-school” English managers dying out as only the likes of Bruce would tolerate him. Maybe if Mark Hughes ever lands a job again, he’ll pay mad money for him.

If we’re picking from the raft of Chelsea players who barely get a game, I’d have said Loftus-Cheek but his game time is creeping up now

Bruce has done it. He’s made me so desperate for a change that I’ll actually take Eddie Howe

She'll be all over that. Thank you, Meenzer: Relationship Guru

Greek and Italian isn't set in stone, I'm just trying to give wor lass something she'll actually like since she's being about as helpful as usual i.e. not at all. I'll check all of those out and see which ones she expects me to read her mind about. As for Leith, that wasn't in the plan but just been looking there and it seems like her sort of scene so I'll expand the search into there. Cheers, chaps.

Anyone got some decent food recommendations for Edinburgh? Preferably not one of the upmarket gaffs, just good scran. We're booked in for Topolobamba on Wednesday night and she's put the kibosh on Dishoom because she's not too keen on Indian (racist). Ideally, a decent Italian or Greek place would be the one but there's that many, I can't pick.

Martinez already having a working relationship with Jones is absolutely terrifying me.

Fuck it, I'm keeping it. it's doing my nut in trying to flog it people that aren't fucking mental (not you). Consider this matter CLOSED.

Trying to flog it on FB Marketplace is making my brain explode and I can't be arsed trundling to CEX with it. We'll say £530 if anyone wants it. I hardly touch the fucker and I want a PC.

Would be an easy signing, even if it was a loan, to improve us. I’m sorry like but I’d be hard pressed to imagine a team with Wilson, Saint-Maximin, Willock and Lingard going down if they had a half-decent coach working with them. Providing a couple of defenders come in with him

Exactly what they need to be doing. This shit isn’t difficult and it’s common place everywhere that didn’t have a completely bone-idle, asset stripping prick of an owner

Healthcare technically but it’s easily applicable to any supply chain

Pram filling

Not to be Fish but there are 90 points to play for. Genuinely think a good or even decent manager will get a tune out of this lot, especially if two good defenders are brought in. The call on the manager has to be spot on, like

50 million spent on about 4 good players in our most desperate positions would genuinely see us alright if a decent manager was at the helm

Perfect game for the owners to see tbh. Even Bruce seemed to acknowledge it at full time. He’s been given a chance to be anything other than completely fucking useless and he’s failed at the first hurdle. As we move on, he’s going to be a pathetic, barely remembered footnote in our history and rightfully so. So long, Bruce and take your fucking useless mates with you

Creased at one of the PIF lads leaning over to say “get rid of the fat cunt and the baldy cunt by tomorrow”

Bruce out tonight and Jones in for the next game cannot be worse. They’ve given him a chance to prove that he can keep the team going strong today, in front of all of the gaffers, and he’s failed massively
