Their only decent player switches sides and scores the winner. Was worried when EE came on, as not enough time to get up to speed with the game and plays central where one mistake like today can cost you a goal

Yep, agree Larra struggling with the pace. Same on the other side. Gale looking good though

Looks like nobody knows anything.

Can someone other than Sheehan take a corner. Not one good delivery yet. Slow floaty balls that the keeper has all day to pick out the air

If ever we needed that goalscoring striker, that first half was proof

Not that the club would admit it but I think that the main pot of the transfer budget still remains for this next incoming striker after carefully building the team with some great wheeling and dealing. Would like to see both Dean and Kenny arrive to top off a great transfer window.

Aren't they playing Blackpool tonight? Maybe a few hangovers for Saturday

Great fight and point. Only us and Sheff Utd of all the away teams didn't leak a goal today. A win next week and Top3

Missing Rodriguez in the middle. Tough match on a poky tight field and a team full of small players that play diamond drills and 1/2 intricate passes. Feel we've got to bypass them and go long ball more hoping that some drops for us.

Yeh, I saw that. Terrible report from someone who probably wasn't even at the match

EErahon and Gale joint MOTM. EE was solid and didn't put a step wrong. Rode our luck towards the end but great start to the season.

This is a typical problem with these cup ties and a small squad. Our best player by a country mile in all our preseason games and now injured in a meaningless cup game, when the league is everything.

Frightening really, how much weaker as a team we are from last season. Thought we had two plans in place for transfers. One, ifof we got promoted and one if stuck in EFL1. Did the plan not include strikers? Can't blame everything on the WC, as we are not in that player pool anyway

Gale and Rodriquez were both targeted early on. They both faded in the 2nd half and glad they were replaced and saved for next week. Dalby lost up front on his own with zero support. The rest were okay and we were the better team until the red card. Glad we are out although I hate losing to anyone but with such a limited squad, we can't afford injuries or more suspensions. Must be extremely frustrating for SS knowing what we require in the transfer window and how slow developments have been. Hope they're looking beyond Amario and Kenny as they are both looking doubtful now

He was being pulled back and punched the guy in the stomach. Three match ban to follow for violent conduct. Idiot

Red card screwed us. Now they're playing like it's their cup final and we look lost.

Big worry more than the result are injuries. Hopefully they all stay fit for next week. Preston just had a red card to a defender, so not sure if that counts as a suspension for next week?

Can I swop the old Burnden Leisure holdings that I have somewhere for these new 'C' shares?

At the moment SS must be really concerned where the goals are going to come from. If it's Dalby up there on his own, not him against Championship defenders and limited service from the wings. They knew the situation before the playoff final as they said two budgets had been planned for and the loans would return, so how come that planned budget has not kicked in and acquired some forwards? No wonder he's frustrated as a poor start can mean a season long struggle

Isn't the Championship a higher level than the Scottish Premiership anyway?

Asa comparison, how are Cardiff and Lincoln doing with their transfers? Any better than us? Always like this after a WC. Fucks everything up. I'm sure he's sick of being asked the same question while being given multiple false promises by clubs, players and their agents. Hopefully it comes together soon but unfortunately expect last minute dealings after the first few games.

Where are live pics guys? First half was poor, now just a black screen and no audio commentary

Same here. Really amateur stuff. No pic just a black screen. Not even capable of putting an apology caption up or offering audio only

Dalby looks lost up front on his own. Desperately need two strikers
