    or somebody, all but one of the new signings looked appalling, but if you have the temerity to be unhappy, then you're the problem.

    Nowt ever changes on the most holier than thou forum on the www.

    Not sure what game you were watching, Brown was a CB playing RB so I don't know what you were expecting from him. Luke Berry had a similar problem.

    Dudgeon, Bailey and Hourihane were all solid. Davies did all he could and was much improved from pre season and Winnall needs good service, that's how a poacher plays so I'm really not sure what you're thinking he should have done with the rubbish service he got

    What a bad excuse, people being played out of position, is it deep into the season and we're hit with injuries and suspensions? No it's the first game of the season and we have had all summer to get the right players in the right positions. I hope Danny didn't mention "new team, time to gel" etc, they had more new players than us. Yesterday was shocking, they should have won more by more than one if they had put their sitter away.

    Was it really that bad yesterday???

    We struggled in the final third but looked pretty good everywhere else I thought..... Get lita and Treacy in for berry and rose and I think we will start to get some goals and a few wins.

    I thought it was, they were a very average League 1 side and in the first 25 mins we had most of the possession, they had their first attack and looked more likely to score than us. I seriously found it hard to pick out our "championship experienced" players.

    We weren't that bad, it certainly wasn't good and Danny won't get long before the crowd turns if things don't improve but it was only the first game. The biggest problem for me was that despite changing the vast majority of the squad the same old problems are still costing us. Poor service to the strikers, hardly any real chances, poor set pieces, schoolboy defending and individual indiscipline. Danny still has a lot of work to do.

    Disappointing result but I don't think you could really criticise anyone yesterday, definitely look like a team that needs time to gel. As others have mentioned, Brown seemed to be busiest person on the pitch coming forward, he didn't do badly to say he's apparently a central defender but why didn't we just have someone like Berry in this position if that's how we were going to play?

    Danny Rose offers nothing, the quicker we can get Lita into the team the better.

    Seen as 'all but one of the new signings looked appalling' can you please explain which 2 out of Dudgeon, Bailey & Hourihane were appalling? Thought all 3 did well

    As a team we were awful, individually we were just as bad. Either too lightweight, or just no direction. Hoofball most of the time.

    I thought Hourihane had a good game and deserved the man of the match. Dudgeon was terrible. Bailey and Berry were anonymous and Brown looks like he has at least one mistake per game in him.
