[thehartshillbadger]

An abysmal performance in a pointless cup. But I’m still bloody watching!

This definitely shows the gulf in talents regarding Sidibe and Dixon they are way off ready for 1st team squad, Sidibe not tracking back with players and Dixon seems always wrong side of his player, but they have got to learn and this will help

Anderson has been much worse than both

Sidibe has nobody to help him in there tbf. Baker and Burger both go missing

Manhoef can't be arsed tonight either, which hasn't helped Dixon

Correct.

Sidibe has done ok considering burger and baker have been nowhere.

[scfcadams]

Exactly the kind of performance I expect from a team with 4 kids starting and a guy who hasn’t played a professional game in three years.

No problem with that at all. Better striker and we’re 1 or 2 goals up.

...and who's this bellend of a commentator? Mr Carlisle United.

[Ron]

Seriously poor this

[stokeypenn89]

Burger having a stinker. He should be bossing games like this but him and Baker go missing in possession.

What a load of absolute shite that was. I've seen Ansell's league forwards better than Ennis.

Christ alive he's shite.

Seems to like the taste of grass👀

[GrahamHyde]

We desperately need a decent striker, why not give Mmaee or Vidigal a go tonight?

We look completely toothless up against dog shit opposition.

[crouchpotato1]

It’s like watching a friendly for me
Burger needs a rocket up his arse as well

[stokienorthants]

The atmosphere’s about as electric as a 1.5 volt battery!

[potterrotter]

If ennis is a striker. I'm Arthur scargill

[milky]

No surprises.

How many times do we see a league 2 team beat one from the championship at this stage ?

Raise our game 2nd half and we win.

It's whether we are capable or willing to.

[raythesailor]

An instantly forgettable 45 mins of watching some guys in Pink shirts running around some ground in the north west corner of England.

I actually think they’ve been okay.
Johnson hasn’t got into the game, and Baker has been mentioned twice in 45 minutes.
Ennis doesn’t really look like he has any confidence.
Anderson has been okay too.

And to think I gave up a couple of hours of watching paint dry for this………

I've had it on a sneaky side screen at work but I keep getting drawn away by my excel payments spreadsheet

[Block 26]

Ennis really is shocking & I still think that burger is overrated by a lot of our fan base.

Poor performance up to yet but we’ve had chances & so have they. We’ll win this 2nd half.

[gingerninja]

It is so pedestrian it's painful to watch, I think Manhoef has bulked up and by doing so has lost that zip. Koumas showing some good signs at times.

[ethers26]

I keep banging this drum but the worrying thing about Burger is

You can't exactly say he needs resting. He barely featured end of last season, and has had a pre-season since 😬

[middleoftheboothen]

Been impressed with Koumas so far. Just needs to get his head up more with the final ball.

[thehartshillbadger]

The 800 who have gone to this game deserve a medal

[jesusmcmuffin]

Another example of how pointless the Carabao cup is

First week of the season as well.

That crazy fringe is stopping him it’s too heavy

Burger is in midfield on his own though. Baker missing again off the ball. Proper bone idle.

Sidibe is ghosting too. Had a few moments but inconsistent.

Tough gig tonight for Wouter.

Ah needs it buzzing off at the barbers.

[lordb]

Standard Championship side away at league 2 side in first round performance

Too many changes but needs to play these players so has to make the changes

Could be 3. 3

Disapointed in Baker, coasting

[ashleyscfc]

I struggle when Schumacher allows performances like this.

Walking around, a back 3 formation (without the ball) that isn’t working. Team lacking balance and generally looking unthreatening.

We ran around for 5 minutes and that was us, hope we have a cov type rocket at half time. Nobodies linking with Ennis really, he’s the only one who’s sweating and I’m not his biggest fan.

Tezgel and Lowe on for Ennis, Million and hopefully bocat and Gooch on for Johnson and Anderson.

[gingerninja]

Sidibe does go missing I have noticed in games, all three of the young lads look vulnerable, as for Johnson at LB😳😳

[wakefieldstokie]

I don’t think there’s much to conclude from this game. Any form of win then move on

[stokiejoe89]

The whole team are coasting. You do feel we have an extra gear or 2. Nobody seems to be fully trying

Like the look of Koumas. Very direct and confident. He will cause defenders problems.

[march4]

This is going to penalties isn’t it?
