    That's definitely true. But it still doesn't really account for the complete lack of movement up front.

    Well well well, took little uns swimming at half time so only just seen the final score.

    Absolutely pathetic, we are an embarrassment, this ownership model isn’t working & until they sell up we will remain a mediocre league 1 or possibly league 2 team.

    That performance stunk of relegation and sadly it's not the only one that has this season

    I wouldn’t be at all surprised if we ended up in a relegation battle.

    Well I’ve seen some rubbish but that performance just beats them all.Manager is tactically poor,the team seem to be running in treacle half the time,they all want an appointment at Spec Savers so they can see their team mates.Manager has got to go,and don’t say put Hourihane in as manager because he is part of this set up.Don’t know who would get a tune out of this lot but something has got to happen soon or it’s 2nd division.

    Or inability to pass 5 yards, or mark a man, or stay onside, or win a header, or make a tackle, or take a decent corner. Basically the inability to do any of the basics well

    Sorry mate but the squad isn’t good enough, we have a terrible defence and not enough quality up front

    I don’t buy into the idea that the players aren’t fit, you’ve got everything these days, fitness coach’s the lot, of course they are fit, whether they have the desire to prove it is another thing

    Is it good enough though Robertshaw says he,s improved things since he came,he,s part of the problem defensively we are appalling no matter who plays.

    No point moving when we have 2 defensive midfielders who cannot pass progressively and give it to the centre halves to do the hard stuff. The Connell / Craig axis needs to be gone. In fairness to cosgrove he is virtually immobile and should be nowhere near the first team.

    A well drilled team with a plan could have beaten Huddersfield today, are you saying those players aren’t capable of beating that Huddersfield performance? Nah, there was no plan to win, no tactics, hence the change in formation again and the mass substitutes- contrary to what this guy thinks that doesn’t make you a football coach. Having a plan with a chance to win a game of football from the start, that’s what makes a coach.

    Not sure if you having a go at me or Clarke here ha, all,I am saying is that the squad isn’t good enough, whether it’s good enough to beat Huddersfield(pre season promotion favourites) is debatable

    We played a team that was missing half their starting 11 with....

    Nicholls
    Helik
    Ward
    Healey
    Koroma

    Kane isn't match fit so can only come off the bench. They even have their 2nd choice keeper injured.

    We had two piss poor efforts on target against a third choice keeper. A team with 7 defeats in 8. A team with half their regulars missing. A team that's scored 2 in 4 who we let score 2 in about 10 minutes today.

    Our record there since the play off semi final is woeful.
