Get your facts right, no one is called a spastic anymore the word is physically challenged.

Five at the back with wrong-backs is a flawed system. (Edited: I meant to say wing-backs!)

If we want an extra defender is best to play four at the back and a player in front of the back four, who can drop back and watch out for midfielders coming through. Can we get Virgo back on loan?

Even Brazil lost to Norway with five at the back. It is down to MM this one.

The opponents can only play on one wing at one time.

Oh come on, you saying we'd have won if McGhee had played a different formation? Of course we wouldn't.

Reading have much better players, that's why they won.

5-1 is a f***ing disgrace.

Shit happens. Reading are a very good side who are marching very confidently to the Premiership. We on the other hand are a side struggling at the other end of the table, needing everyone (including us!) to be pulling together, and at our best to fight our way to survival.

Throw in a sending off, and of course it turns into a demolition. As someone pointed out yesterday, we were 8-1 at the bookies to win that game, so fair to say we didn't ever have much of a chance. Some games you just have to accept you have been beaten by a far better side and move on.

Home games with Hull, QPR and Millwall, now they are the games that will decide our season, not a defeat (albeit a bad one) away to the best team in the league.

Nice to see we all resort to our true level when faced with a defeat.

I hope that was just a carelessly chosen phrase TFH, and not something you regularly use.
