Yet again we go behind and it's game over. It's becoming embarrassing that we can't even compete when just one goal behind. Hate to be negative but that 2nd half showing was an absolute horror show. Horsham will turn us over on Tuesday evening if we play like that. I've not really judged Collins in detail since the start of the season but the most alarming problem for me is the lack of defensive organisation. Yes there are some mitigating factors but that doesn't excuse the lack of organisation and players being able to do basics such as track runners and stay goal side. I'd also add that we now seem to have gone from a pressing team to a possession based team. All well and good if you have the players to play that style of game. I'm not one for saying Collins should be sacked right now, however, I did say before the season started that failure to achieve a play off place should see him move on. My view on that hasn't changed. Head coaches are all too keen to jump ship from the club as soon as they can and for me that should work the other way too. This squad should be achieving a top 6 finish, if it doesn't then bye bye Collins and onto the next.
Pretty much agree with all that. I am one for defending BFC. My lads gone with his 2 mates today. The players should be refunding the fans out of their wages for the **** show second half today. Total embarrassing display against a bang average team.
Some players haven't got a fight in them. Not mentioning names but certain games same players are going missing.
Yeah not just the losing it’s the way we lost. Derby haven’t had to break sweat this afternoon and in truth the score line flattered us. It could have been so much worse. I admit I’m a Herbie Kane fan but whatever you think of him you cannot doubt his energy and commitment which could not be said of Styles today. Callum appeared to be right up for it at the beginning of the season but that has completely fallen away in recent weeks. We need both Herbie and Luca back to have any chance of keeping this season on track. These next few weeks are going to be crucial in how our season pans out. We need somehow to keep in touch with the top end whist we can get the likes of Roberts and Lopata back and based upon his little cameo appearance today Jack Shepherd needs to be playing rather than just watching from the sidelines.
