    Parker can dress it up however he wants but on show for all to see was the 2nd placed team in the league at home who generated / produced very little and imo anyway showed no ambition to win the game.

    No one on here seems over concerned that we were absolutely clueless with no intent to win the game.

    Don?’t know about. You but I?’d looked forward to the game and fully expected us to let?’s say compete in a top of the table clash - instead we just played negative football and let?’s be honest offered nothing much really.
    I am with you 100% Army.It is negative football at its finest-trying desperately not to lose games instead of trying to win them.It has been like this since the beginning of September and I can remember the criticism I got from some on here by calling it out at the time.
    Cardy`s record in the Championship was from two teams that did not have a fire sale after relegation and kept their goalscorers.We scored nine goals in two games and since the fire sale we have averaged less than one a game and shots on target is even worse.We have not scored a single goal from set pieces in 27 outings.
    Football is supposed to be about entertaining and like you I would rather lose 3-2 than watch this dross week in week out.Cardy and the players think everything is hunky dory and look for the positives this time by lauding Trafford who up to the two penalties had another clanger waiting to happen game.The defence is exceptional and it has to be recognised but for me the VK way of simply scoring more than the opposition is essence of the beautiful game.
    In my humble opinion it will be Weeds and the Blades for automatic promotion and the Mackems via the play-offs.
