    God forbid if we lose. Dread to think the comments on here. Not sure how many members are on here but thankly they may not speak for the 10k-11k home fans at games

    I think for the most part the comments on here have been reasonable tonight.

    You’re going to get difference of opinions with everyone especially after a match like today but at least we haven’t got people blindly calling players **** for no reason. For example There’s people wondering what Moncur adds to the team, this isn’t an opinion I hold but I can see where they’re coming from.

    All about opinions int it.

    Has the team been ripped?

    One or two individual players maybe, but I’ve not read any massive sweeping criticisms of the side.

    I have seen posted where pretty much the whole team and club have been totally criticised in recent weeks. So yes is the answer to your question. Some FIFA know it alls on here. If Hecky was in charge mind it would be a different story

    Only really seen anyone mention Thiam and Moncur. People do tend focus on where we were lacking rather than what went well after a result like that.
    Walton looked assured
    The full back were excellent again.
    He centre halves won everything in the air
    Mowatt, it's almost normal side him to play so well now.
    Bahre looked decent especially 2nd half in the middle tired for last 10
    Moore won loads of flick ons but had little service
    The two wide men had little end product and Thaim lashed a very good chance into row z. Moncur wasted a golden chance to put the game to bed with one of the worst passes I've seen for a long time.
    Young victor looked lively and got us the goal (though could well have been og really) but was also guilty of a very poor finish when he should have really scored.

    Personally don't feel that's ripping them apart it's just how I saw the game.

    That’s all I’d seen too, and McGeehan of course

    Even after winning last week I read lots of criticism
    We were also
    Missing our two best players and a striker down
    I think we are victims of our own success. But I did read a comment yesterday so they would not renew any of the players contracts

    Over expectation... The "we'll pi55 this league" gang only adds pressure. Going to be a long hard season. It may take more than to get out of L1....
    Btw Walsall were decent yesterday, we missed chances but so did they... Draw was fair..

    No doubt the same people would have been more critical of Johnson’s team that didn’t pull up any trees in the first half of the 2015/16 season.

    How dare people criticise a team that lost nine on the spin?

    It’s a forum for discussing our team, what’s the issue? As long as nothing gets personal I don’t get the problem in praise or criticism.

    Football’s not black & white, when you win not everyone plays well & when you lose not everyone is poor.

    There’s so many other factors, luck, dodgy refereeing, bad finishing, individual errors etc.

    McBurnie & Moore were in my opinion superb for us last season yet we were losing most weeks. Joe Williams in the first half of the season was brilliant but again we were losing most weeks.

    McGeehan was in my opinion poor yesterday & after an hour or so I felt our wingers Moncur & Thiam did the same as last week & ran out of steam giving us less options to get out from the back & it meant we found ourselves under pressure just like last week, only this time we didn’t get away with it.

    Just because we’re undefeated doesn’t mean everything’s great & if we lose a few it doesn’t means everything’s ****.

    The weekend is for sharing opinions on the game, if you don`t like what you read then maybe this aint the place for you. Even after a win folks can see in their minds ways of improving the team,system,etc just as our coach will do when he reviews the game. He gets to change it, if needed, we get to voice ar opinions on here whether ***** ops or not.

    I think the vast majority of people can see a couple of areas where we can improve and broadly agree on the players involved.
    There's no problem in discussing it just the same as there's no problem with celebrating the good points.
    There's very few on here who think we're going to walk the league and even fewer who are serious in their belief we will. We have played some excellent stuff so far though, including in patches yesterday. There's nothing wrong in pointing that out.
    Or there shouldn't be.
    We're still averaging 2 pts per game. If that's still the case in May we'll go up.

    that simply has to happen at some point. But IMHO we have enough in the tank to be in the top 6 come season end, and hopefully one of the top 2.
