    A game we should've won comfortably against an absolutely abominable side, 3-1 down. Love to see it.

    This typifies where we are.

    No real finisher and suspect defence.

    Such a dominant display and losing 3-1 to these. Unforgivable

    Like the earlier post,the board have let Clarke and the support down.They will not pay for a decent striker at this level.Im afraid we will be in this league for many years :(

    How very Barnsley. I can accept a loss when they’ve been outplayed, but this game was there for the taking. The perfect game to catch up to those in the top 4 and they’ve thrown it away.

    All that momentum from the last 4 games is gone. Don’t even know why I’m shocked. This team is just far too inconsistent to challenge the top 2.

    I was going to say the very same.

    He's looked ok with the ball but lightweight and naive defensively.

    AS bad as Watters has been, may as well have taken him off and gone down top 10 men than put cosgrove on. 9 men if you count Russel

    Looking for the positives at least it kills the idea I've seen on here recently that after a brief run of results the board will be happy with the squad we've got and won't think we need any strengthening. After today it's impossible not to see that we need improvement at each end of the pitch if we want to mount a challenge. Whether we bring anyone in is a different matter but it tells them loud and clear what we need.

    Because our defence can't stop the opposition scoring and our strikers can't score and nobody at the club appears to be doing anything about it.
