  • Results and more specifically spineless shithouse performances like Saturday just gone can define a whole season. We get beat at Burton and then home to Derby the good will wont last long. 

  • Cold light of day. 5 games in - 3 wins, 1 draw, 1 loss. The excitable types had the scalpel hovering over their wrists in the pre season FFS. We said assess it after 10 games. Calm the fuck down.

  • the idea of putting folk under that much pressure at this stage of the season is bonkers

Dan coming on - maybe today's the day he makes himself a hero?

Unlikely 

Jerome and Dan upfront ffs, relegation fodder

Wouldn’t have subbed Dion off, when we still need a goal.

We have one striker capable of scoring and he as just subbed him  . Jerome as held the ball up better though in the last 5 minutes than victor as since we signed him

Also diving for FKs a bit. Frannie Lee would have landed on the penalty spot.

Iredales having another ‘mare

Iredale last 2 games making me think that we might be better of with Johnston on crutches 

COYFWM! Get a grip.

Dan gets worse the more he plays, bobbins

Thing is he hardly ever gives the ball away. Saw a stat last week and he is 3rd in the league for successful pass completion at 94.5%. Problem is he does f*** all with it.

Could have been so much worse, but a point is better than nothing. But still issues persist in playing against Burton

The new Kachunga

Don't know how many more wake up calls I can take.

If we had anybody with the inclination to attack the ball when it’s coming in to the box we’d have won that 5-1. Far too many individual errors is one thing, far too little collective will to win is very poor. Not a good reaction at all to last week.  

Iredale and Williams seem to of regressed badly since the first few games.
The sooner Bodvarsson and Toal come back in the better. 
 

The ref cracked down on time wasting all game then lets them get away with it last 10 minutes. Work that one out.

At least Kachunga tried 

All in all, a potentially valuable point.

Losing Santos, perhaps cost us, but that's football.

Really!? Surprised as seems to bounce of him a lot. The passes he does play generally 5 yard back passes to the defence on the halfway line.

I would swap him kachunga hold up play was far better and was just as capable of not scoring 

It’s early days still but if automatics are the target today was two points dropped.

So many times we overhit the final ball

0 goals from midfielders, 0 contributions from subs this season, relying on our starting st's and Adeboyejo should score that 100%

Nlundulu gets himself involved, usually hold up play, but what does Jerome do? seems like a waste of a sub, perhaps we need to bring in an attacker these next few days

Which is weird given the subs he made.

Only one defensive midfielder, and 2 strikers still on.

We only started playing after they scored. Decent point really.

Not arsed who scores, so long as someone does.
