Since 1st December, I think only deserved 3 points in Reading game. That’s the kind of form we’re in.

Not sure a striker is our problem. Absolutely no service. He strikers aren’t the problem you’re right. Look at the two in the middle. Absolutely nothing going forward, chair wants to do it all on his own but he’s no tarrabt. We are so slow moving the ball through the phases yeah, pointed that out pre match. In the end though the board have to take full responsibility, for reasons extensively discussed elsewhere. |

Just tried to cash out my bet for us to get into the play offs and bet365 (who kept sending me messages asking if I wanted to cash out in previous weeks) now say "no cash out option available". Funny that...

I blame the manager personally. He got the starting line-up completely wrong. Worse still, it looks like he totally failed to motivate the players for such an important game. This. he can’t motivate the players for important matches that will define our season This has happened three times now and is a worry Why change a winning formation just because chair is back Prick I just don't see how Chair can waltz back into the side after being away for a month. And crucially a month (January) where we were outstanding and unbeaten. His return along with Hendrick (causing Amos to lose his place too) totally upset our balance and shape. And for that the manager must take responsibility. |

Pointless keep slinging in hopeful aerial balls tonight as cooper had Dykes in his pocket all game,why didn’t MW envisage that would happen tonight and worse still not change things ?
Johansen and Field offer next to nothing in central midfield in an attacking sense and certainly needs freshening up.
Keep throwing on another striker smacks of a manager making a desperation decision when most fans can see our real problem is passing the ball accurately through the midfield.
So disappointing to see our hopes drift away this season despite knowing in reality we have been overachieving.

Just look at the players who are off form: Wallace playing like some old donkey on Blackpool beach six months before he's sent off to the knackers yard Johansen - so excited when he signed but how he stayed on the pitch for 75 mins tonight I have no idea Field - no creativity Back three - all about as mobile as statues Dykes - lively-ish start but totally anonymous second half Willock didn't look properly fit or not in form We just have such little creative spark in that team that if you drop Chair it only leaves Willock. Excellent tho he was in Jan just don't think you can leave it down to him every week. Several of those games we won we got out of jail. |

Amos losing his place has been crucial too in regard to our decline IMO. Don't think it's just form either. Looks more to me like they're not motivated enough, which seems really strange. Again, that comes back to the manager. |

That was piss poor tonight, we’ve got too many who have dropped form at once. Amos came on and showed and moved straight away. Why Austin and not Gray? Gray would have been something different. Johansen and Dickie recovering when we lose the ball are a joke, they just walk back no urgency. Lots to sort out by Saturday.

We should have loaned a well scouted striker in January. Not panic options like Lawrence and the Swansea player. The tricky Barnsley striker who scored against us on Saturday is a perfect excample of what you can get if you scout properly. By all means, getting a similar player in wouldn`t have broken the bank.

Goals have completely dried up too. Not scored in three games now. (Sorry if someone's already said that. Not read back on the thread yet).

We're just not that strong as a squad. That's down to current financial policy, we don't need to go through all that again.
You can only go up under those circumstances if you're motivated, well organised and do the basics right. Problem is, that hasn't been happening recently.

Can see three or four changes for Saturday
People who should be sat down assuming others are fit are Dickie, chair, Albert and Dykes

Didn’t need a striker did we?!
Fucking abysmal yet again.
Why have we brought in Hendrick & Sanderson?
Dickie suspended now for 2 games so at least we can see what Sanderson is all about.
Hendrick should have played tonight. Johansen and Chair poor.
Not one player had a good game. We’ve totally gone off the boil at the wrong time. We looked jaded, didn’t look sharp and can’t score in a brothel.
SHIT RANGERS!!!

MW said after the Boro game after admitting the midfield got overrun “We will still start looking at individual matches and make a decision on going for it “
His going for it meant playing 2 strikers up front against Barnsley with no midfield
Perfect opportunity on Saturday now Dickie is suspended to utilise Sandersons pace alongside Dunne and play Dozzell holding,with Amos and Hendrick in midfield and having them breaking to join the forwards.
