Wow.

It comes to something when a few short months after back to back play off seasons we've become so poor that a) we're second best at home to Rotherham and b)it's not surprising.

We appear to have assembled a squad of players with very few leaders and not a whole lot of character. O top of which they seemingly are being sent out on to the pitch with no clear idea of what they're supposed to be doing. We lack structure, cohesion and any discernible style of play. Ineffectual up front and pourous in defence isn't a great combination.

We need to improve sharpish.

I can't see a change of manager making a significant difference, it's the quality on the pitch imo.

Worrying when your keeper is MoM - at home!! Our great strength in recent seasons has been a miserly defence but we look at risk of a battering. There is far too much reliance on Greer and Dunk playing blinders each week.

It's not as if we are banging goals in at the other end of the pitch.

I don't believe in having a revolving door to the managers office but we lack confidence, goals and momentum - meanwhile several of our rivals are getting their acts together. We cannot afford to lose any more ground.

I'm sorry. This is Incorrect Thought. Double-plus ungood. Please report to room 101.

In the field
Gutless. Absolutely gutless.

Considering SH was an international defender, he doesn't seem to be getting his tactical message across to our back four. Full backs who go too far forward, we lose the ball and then are way out of position. This leaves Greer and Dunk about 50 yards apart trying to cover.

He has got to go NOW.

Shut up, you dunno what you're talking about mate. It's all Barber's fault.


And the old gentlemen in the WSU H block, it's also his fault.

Hmm, it was like watching a league one match, unfortunately there appears to be a distinct lack of quality in the team, added to that some lack of purpose.

Mate it isn't lack of quality in the team its lack of organisation and leadership!!!!!!!!!! Hyypia is not up to the job fact!! Div 1 next year unless Bloom addresses the problem HYYPIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:hilton:
