    Same old story

    Too many missed chances, to finish games off, our defending corners, conceding always looking likely ( Dawson free header ) even before their goal.
    Thought MB, should have changed things sooner - with only 10 mins left or so, doesn't give much time to have impact.
    Maybe a hard lesson learned.

    I thought that last season should have been a hard lesson learned, but obviously not.

    Absolutely right - unfortunately - it isn't about the personnel ether - miss a bagful then concede on their first on target effort - from a bloody corner!

    We have more than twice as many corners and create f ck all - they only have three - free header missed and a goal.

    The fact that there was a blatant foul on the build up to the corner, and that Grabam had a handball before poking it in is something we have to deal with every game - so that means taking the chances that we continue to miss.

    And add to that the most blatant penalty you will ever see not given.......

    Bamford should have had 3/4 today I'm jus not seeing this 'natural' goalscorer people keep telling me about. A natural goalscorer doesnt try take a touch with his weak foot in the box from a cross when it was easer for him to take a first time shot.

    FFS it's one home game into the season, you're all going to have coronaries by the end of the season unless you relax a bit more. Sure we weren't firing on all cylinders today but there's a very long way to go yet. I'd rather we start slow and finish better than what happened last season.

    Sorry don't agree.
    Start as you mean to continue.

    Understand both POV but the frustration is with someone more clinical than Bamford we would have won that game comfortably.

    MB analyses stats more than most so the fact we created the most chances in the league but were down in 5th or 6th is scoring shows that there was an issue.
