    I don’t get the hype myself. Neat and tidy most of the time but loses it a lot. Tries the Hollywood pass that occasionally works. Needs to work better in breaking the lines.

    And no doubt some will blame the supporters for that…

    The blame though is elsewhere.

    It doesn’t take much to get fans going and keep us onside.

    I’m still here - but I’m seriously doubting renewing this year. I’m just not getting any enjoyment from it at all.

    I might see if I miss it.

    Nope. Nowhere near.

    It wouldn't have even gained any thoughts of a free kick had it been in the centre circle.

    You really don’t like him do you Jay? On the other hand, I’m watching this and thinking that he’s the only player of genuine quality we possess!

    I’d give Dyer a try before that

    Every other player we have would lose it in the same situation

    The only comment I have on that first half is that this commentator really loves Bodvarsson dunt he?

    Whereas I think he hardly ever loses it. I’d love to see the pass completion stats though.

    All this talk about thirds and 3 CB's and Lofthouse playing out of position. Fk me it isn't the Champions League it's League One! Clarke play 442 ffs! And STICK TO THE BASICS

    Not true. I just judge him the same as any other player, rather than treat him as a favourite who can do no wrong. He's played OK, very similar to everyone else. Others who think he's great don't see that he caused the situation where he had three players around him, that he made two poor errors to be in that situation, just that he did well to get out of it. For me, it was poor play not good play.

    I don’t know. He’s a good footballer with a decent range of passing but I think that is overhype in the extreme. He’s weak in the challenge and not the quickest to recover when it’s given away - though probably quicker than Russell in that regard.

    There’s a reason he plays for us. He’s worth his shirt at the moment but you can see why he’s not always selected and why he’s transferred to a club like us.

    I like him, hope he plays every week, but let’s not go over the top.

    This commentator is making this even more miserable from our point of view. We know we are crap stop telling us all the time.

    Bit harsh in Russel he hit it hard and low into the corner and the keeper made a good save. Lofthouse however oh dear
    We’ve been the better side and much better than last week but still not convincing. Certainly not as bad as some posters are saying against a side that’s just won 3 in a row

    Despite everything, I have the inexplicable feeling that this is going to be one of those games where we look a completely different team in the second half and win comfortably. COYR!

    I hope not but I think I've seen this film team sits deep we can't break them down and when we do we lack a quality to finish. We know the rest
