    Because it is Christmas and CW gave them a present down the wing. Then he cahanged his mind and brought Baldock on but alas too late.

    Were starting to see what happens when you go into a season with a threadbare squad.
    The drop in fitness, form and even discipline has been absolutely alarming since the Burton Albion game.

    We looked unbeatable and unplayable which then became almost unplayable but beatable after ONE player got injured

    Over the last few weeks this has sewn a seed of doubt, which has led to lower confidence, which has led to poor performances

    Now apart from a good result against a horrendous Sunderland team we look extremely ordinary.

    The board to blame once again for their pathetic haggling over Leonard, Holmes, Cole etc

    the board didnt make the team selection today. we had the players on the bench that got us two decent results in the last two games ,IE baldock n donaldson. sharp is way out o form he was awful today and as been for weeks. basham at wing back as been one of our main problems whilst baldock was injured he simply cant play there effectively. why change it. but i do agree about the strength in depth and the board do have to spend. its a great chance one which we may not get again for a long time. if they dont spend na they never will

Not good enough we need to get some practice in on how to put your foot through the ball when on the edge of the oppositions penalty area. Too many players looked jaded. The back three were bullied by the pig all match. Only 1 win in eight now we need some quality replacements in JTW.
    agree with every word. and we need about 5 0r 6 quick sharp players

    because we have a game against a top 6 side in 48 hours and neither of the 2 mentioned have a decent fitness record since joining

    we thought we could beat a terrible side without them, it backfired

    yep there is that,but why not go full strength against a side we,re more likely to beat and change it at a side we,re more likely to lose irrespective of what side we put out . if say we win 1-0 today and lose 5-0 monday we still have 3 points from 2,now we,ll be extremely lucky to get a point

    Yes I agree about "REPLACEMENTS"
    Every player coming in should be a "REPLACEMENT" and not an understudy cover player, squad member or "versatile, will play anywhere because he's not very good in any position kind of player"
