    Luca Connell is getting worse by the game. There isn’t a person on this planet that can convince me he’s better than Nwakali right now.

    Ref was as sick of that half as we are. Didn't bother with any added time

    Positives?
    DKD occasionally looks like he can play football
    The kits look nice and clean

    How we're not several goals behind, is a miracle. We don't clear our lines. Defensive headers just go up in the air in the box from our back line. Jeez!

    Connell was okay ish until 30th minute, then this last 15 he was abysmal!

    Mccarthy also been terrible, but for longer. His passing has been shocking, and that missed ball and clearance... Jesus christ.

    Russell and Barrett done well imo.

    The system has been kind to me today as in not letting me into iFollow. Sounds like money well saved

    Just awful. Connell has got to be pulled at HT. Genuinely terrible performance all round but from him in particular. Absolute waste of a shirt.

    Utterly hopeless. We are so far away from being a top 6 side than the post admin team. Connell has been awful. We are a million miles away. Sorry state of affairs.

    I love how Connell has barely made a pass all half and instead of just giving it simple hes spazzin hollywood passes to nowhere, who in their right mind would buy him from us

    That was as sh it as it’s been. We could have been 3 down.

    Wa nktastic.

    Tactically inept with some woeful displays from Humphrys, Russell, O’Keeffe, Farrugia and Connell.

    There's been a few times where I thought the ref had blown up for a foul as everyone is just standing around. Then I realised we're still playing.

    Clarke has given up the ghost

    Spent most of the match sat in the back of the dugout with his head down


    And I don't blame him one bit. These players are *****. Every single one of them

    Main positive is that we somehow aren't losing.... Aside from that Barratt looks ok considering he's a young un that's been thrown in at deep end. That aside it's dire

    Shape isn’t working. Not even sure whether it’s meant to be a midfield two - but DKD isn’t playing the Phillips role and we’ve ended up with a central midfield two. Russell in a two is scary, no graft. And he’s been the pick of the two - as Connell has been absolute dross. But you couldn’t take him off for Nwakali - him and Russell in a two would be suicidal.

    Injuries and suspensions aren’t helping but the ‘better’ players in the team aren’t pulling their weight.

    Blackpool aren’t too clever in the final third - the winger is tricky but they have no end product.

    Anyone any good would have been three up half time.

    Absolutely honking performance that. No redeeming feature whatsoever.
