    Not sure about that mate. Not giving away pointless foul, and then if Jalo closed him down properly may have put him off and he would have had to take another touch. Either way, great strike. Really poor performance

    Poor in defence
    Poor in midfield
    Poor up front

    Lucky to get a point there imo

    I’d say we got what we deserved but we didn’t we deserved to lose. Half a game again. Not good enough especially at home.

    The Jalo/Watters pairing almost as bad as Collins' shoes/jacket combo.

    I'd blame the players once again who have had an opportunity to come on and impress and done **** all. Max Watters, which moron decided he was worth a 4 year contract?! Pay him up now and **** him off out of this club.

    Take your point, but realistically that shot still goes in one time in twenty, if that.

    It's everything else which has been the problem, is my point. They should have probably been one or two up by half time.

    Every sub we made today was wrong. Styles anonymous / watters waste of a shirt and Jalo looked like an 18yr old.

    Cosgrove must be wondering why we signed him.

    Really don't get the subs today. Just subs for the sake of it. Putting watters on is like deciding to play with 10 men. Very rarely touches ball when he comes on.

    not the ones this coach makes. His substitutions he makes regularly makes an impact on the game for the worst.

    Another absolute shocker from Collins. Awful subs, awful game management, absolutely zero sense of urgency to go and win that game. Yet again, I still haven’t seen two good halves.

    I certainly am given his performances so far.

    Totally agree...a good point that.
    Think they will think, how did we not win that ?
    Subs poor today....not sure what the thinking was.

    Don't think he's the answer to be fair. What's wrong with just leaving the 2 strikers on for a least A bit longer

    Do you not think the players should start taking some responsibility? Max Watters is getting chances to come on and impress and quite frankly he's a lazy ****** who's sat here on a 4 year contract and IMO is an absolute disgrace. We should never have signed him after his diabolical red card against Port Vale last season.
    Alternatively Collins could make no subs and just run the starting 11 into the ground but then some om here would also complain about that. About time some of these fringe players started showing some bottle and competing for a starting place otherwise let's tell them to pack their ******* bags.

    Every time we take McAtee off, the whole side just drops back by X amount of yards... just sitting back and allowing crosses all the time, we could deal with them last season with 3 big lads ar the back who can win headers, but our 3 are no where near as dominant. Not closing down more was a huge problem today, we got away with it thanks to their poor finishing.

    And we've got away with another referee decision in our favour, quite a few this past month has gone our way.

    Not sure it was a perfectly good goal. Shirt pulling isn't allowed.
