There was nothing negative in the way he’s set us up today in any way shape or form. Playing a 3 man midfield at home is negative. DWP should have been starting. Clucas shouldn’t be back up to Powell. That was negative. spot on.

A draw was fair. Which is poor. Under current circumstances I agree, a draw today was a poor result. It wasn't because of a negative mindset from our manager though. You're taking shit. It was. There was no pattern to the play. We were barely a threat. It was disjointed and stating a flat midfield 3 at home has always been and will always be negative.

It was. The midfielders weren’t supporting the attackers. The full backs weren’t supporting the attackers. It was disjointed shite. Disjointed isn’t negative. We did not set up negatively today, or at any time over the last month.

We did not set up negatively today, or at any time over the last month. It is when one of the full back is a centre half and the attacking midfielder you’ve picked hasn’t played well for 18 months apart from against his old clubs. Playing Brown up front with it was daft too. He’s not a striker.

4 points from the play offs but we need Powell fit for the next 15 games 6 points but far more importantly 6 other clubs between us and 6th place. It is nailed on at least 2 or 3 of them will finish well even if we were to catch Sheffield United which we won't. Oh, and we have won exactly 2 of our last 10 matches. We don't have an earthly, not a snow balls chance in hell! With all due respect, Gods, you would think that wouldn’t you? You seem like a thoroughly decent chap but you make Benjamin biscuit look like Chemical Ali.

I like Wilmot at CB but he’s a fucking shit right back.

Clucas makes minimal difference attacking or defensively and in some ways complicates things in the middle. We were playing Birmingham not Fulham or Bournemouth. I like MON and think he’s done a decent job but he needs to go out more to win games especially against lower placed teams rather than not losing.

So we are now advocating playing a left winger as a number 10 in a 4231? On what basis are we saying that’s a good idea? Campbell has proven time and time again that he’s far better playing wide.

Who else amongst us would have predicted a team that’s finished 16th, 15th and 14th over the last three years would finish in a similar position again? Thank you.

He’s a very nice tidy player I fully agree. He’s also clearly a wide player and didn’t play as a 10 in either of those games.

He is but he occupies those spaces that we vacated today. Woods controlled the game and no one got near the fucker. It was embarrassing. DWP would have stopped that too.

He’s not just a left winger. When he signed he was pushed as being a number 10. He’s good enough to play pretty much anywhere and would cause mayhem in a more central role. Do you think Clucas is the better option then?

Do you think Clucas is the better option then? I’ve never once seen him play as a number 10. We played 433 and in that system I see Clucas or Thompson as the two fit options. I’m no Clucas fan at all but I can’t see the logic in calls for youngsters to pay in positions they’ve never played in.
