    Okay Off for Useless Livermore!

    What a pathetic change - the midfield was looking ok for once!!!

    Livermore nearly cost us with that awful pass which led to the Johnstone save

    I was thinking exactly the same Bomber, very poor on Livermore's part. Again, why fix it if it ain't broke?

    Then you get Phillips running up to the corner flag! Don't they get it - a point was no good!!! I would have kept Okay on and thrown on Grant instead of Phillips or even Robinson!

    Totally agree - Okay was a rock in midfield .... Livermore has no pace and no idea what to do with the ball ....

    It has to be said that if we had the four new players from the start of the season I don't think that we would be in the position that we find ourselves in now. I'm not saying that we would be mid-table but I'm sure that we would have had more of a chance of staying up than we now have. You can't apportion blame to just one area but the midfield has been the biggest problem. Basically, it wasn't good enough. It showed today when Livermore came on as his poor pass, under no pressure, nearly lost us the game. Phillips has done nothing, except the goal v Spurs, which he couldn't miss. As for Sawyers, well I just don't understand why he has had so much game time. I don't see us staying up but it might not be quite so embarrassing.

    Allardyce said as much in his interview he was knackered

    There were a couple of moments in the game when Okay broke up play and showed composure in distributing the ball .... first time I have seen that from any of our midfielders this season ..... Pereira does the same further upfield ...... I reckon Okay looks like a class player ..... would love to keep him .... but doubt he will want to play in the Champ .... . If only .....
