We lost again, end of. A side that has few goals, no midfield and a piss poor defence. Add to that a rookie DOF and a very, very rookie HC, a recipe for disaster.
I won’t even mention those at the top who “run” (an oxymoron by any standard) the club and have given us 8 years of dross and decline.
What could go wrong!

I didn't see much difference between the two sides tbf apart from their fluke 1st goal and Gibson falling over for their 2nd. We missed better chances than both - Phillips twice and Koumas. Soutar and Souza were decent for them but thats about it. I saw the game in a very similar way. I think we are very much in a minority though. I keep reading they could have “upped it” had they needed to but I’m not sure they could. They were a cery typical championship side, similar to when we were beaten by WBA. Functional at best. Solid enough but nothing special. Sums up this league really. |

Please, never play 5 at the back again! We don't have the players for that, something we have proved over and over again! Did Pelach really think that was why we rescued a point against Bristol!!??  |

They didn’t need to break sweat after the first 15 mins or so of the second half. This made our gradual entry into the game look effective. |

Thoroughly deserved defeat. Hope that kills the 5 at the back experiment. Still think we've got enough quality for it to click if Pelach can just work it out. With Pearson and Lawal in the middle and Gallagher up top I think we potentially have a decent side, keeper is a big improvement, the defence is still poor though and we always look like conceding. We’ve been completely dominated by the opposition in the last two games, we were very lucky to get a draw despite being 2-0 at home to Bristol. Pelach needs to pick up some wins soon otherwise it’s going to get toxic, he’s not going to get a full strength side any time soon so he needs to find a way to win with what’s available to him. I hope it works out as I can’t be doing with yet another manager and rebuild. Pretty fed up by this point, I’ve wasted too many Saturday afternoons on this shite. Pearson will be nowhere near fit and up to match speed this season, this will result on only one outcome, frustrated player, late tackles and red cards. Pearson is not the saviour this season or any season. |

Just back and a very dark day .
1 The Squads lack of physicality totally exposed again .
2 The Head coach just heading for the inevitable lucrative trap door
3 The behaviour of a minority of our supporters disgusting
The abject mess of a summer yet again exposed by the inevitable Campbell goal against a team that hadn’t scored in 4 away games , an increasing dislocation between supporters and leaders over the managerial change logic .
clear evidence we will play our season out fighting relegation probably failing
As depressing an away day as it gets

I would agree that they were nothing special Souttar the DM and Arblaster looked a lot better than anything we have the rest much of a muchness but they have Hamer to come in Ohare will get better and Mooore has a lot of know how at this level, what do we have, six away games scored one goal in the League Norwich and Bristol were also much better than us so it is getting to the stage where we have tostart to look at teams worse than us. |

Well that was shite,zero fight and only got close once they'd given up really trying. It's not looking good. relegation battle now I'm not sure the result changes that one way or the other tbh but the lack of fight is the biggest worry, either from the players or the manager, we didn't exactly go for it in the last ten. |

Not as bad as last ~75 Vs Bristol |

Time to right Gibson off in the stinking pile of utter shite centre halves we have. Turned an easy clearance into a goal, blokes utter shit. 2 years and 8 months left on his deal. Old Jon boy shafted us with this one. Waaayyyyyy past it. |

It really does emphasise how dire the standard is in this division that a journey man striker in Moore and Campbell is enough to put us and probably other teams to the sword and it all points back to ffp |

Such a shame Johansson decided to morph into prime Gordon Marshall for a moment to gift him his goal. |

Not as bad as last ~75 Vs Bristol The most concerning for us all is after going 2 up v bristle, we’ve now gone over two hours without looking like scoring & conceded 4, what happened to the side that hammered pompey, Gallagher aside they’ve all been available, talk about consistently inconsistent!! |

In the second half I watched the manager talking to his assistant for ten minutes and he didn’t even watch the game.
We are so WEAK. We have not out ball at all, no physical presence. Gibson is just woeful, so slow and lethargic.
Yesterday and 70 mins of Tuesday really have me concerned.
Our best player is Moran, we never pass to Koumas despite making 100 runs a game in behind.
Bad times. We will be going in another direction soon if we don’t beat derby Saturday.

Again we flattered to deceive. Sheff Utd lost at Leeds, there was no way they were going to lose 2 on the bounce, so the best I was expecting was a draw. Regardless, Jon Walters needs firing,( being polite I meant to say. he needs fU#king off) we may still be in the same situation with Schuey if he was in charge( without a doubt no worse), but I honestly believe given time he(Schuey) would have got it right. What was Walters thinking so early in the season? Did he really think the Oatcake was the place to pick up the feeling of the fans to make such a knee jerk decision?
Flattered the fans and we fell for it. Taxi for Walters!
