    Warne in your face style got us yep relegated every time.
    Rowett would never take us on.

    Let’s sack him the next one comes in only wins 3 games from next 15 would you sack him?
    If not why?

    I can’t help thinking that the voice to get rid it’s growing so no matter what happens it’s not good enough.
    Today was a poor quality game bottom 3 sides you would expect that.
    Our home support is embarrassing yes the players need to do better but our fans are shocking.
    Clarity is gone now the fact we showed character today doesn’t matter the fact our confidence is low and we kept going doesn’t matter the fact he kept us up last year doesn’t matter the fact we’re not cut adrift doesn’t matter.
    He’s not been here long so get rid and what then?
    I’m interested to see who the ones who demand he goes think we can get in.
    Warne got 3 relegations so what’s changed with our fan base?
    Why after keeping us up and we can still stay up he needs to go. Dont tell me it’s the performances because we’ve had far worse under previous managers.

    We scored a goal and for about 5 minutes we actually looked like we might do something. Apart from that it was tedious pedestrian football. No craft, energy or urgency to our play whatsoever.

    I wanted to see a response after the Hillsborough debacle. There wasn't one.

    If that's the best we can do at home against QPR then we may as well start preparing for league one in January.

    Spot on. The only thing about league one is that the next time we’ll be in it for a while.

    Oddofin our standout player. Morrison it's just his movement it's restricted will cost us. Clucas same as last week looks spent. Revan should be on the left. Tiehi played better today. We didn't have much threat out wide.

    I missed Hillsbrough,thank God,but that today was a dire game,played by 2 teams will both be in the bottom 4 come May,the problem is,QPR will get better,they have some half decent players who Ainsworth tried to ruin,I think we have 3 or 4 who are championship standard,and at least one of them will be gone in January.
    I honestly don`t know if Taylor should go now,I still think give him while Christmas,but I suspect I`m in a minority.
    Whatever you say about Warne,you knew to expect from his teams,he had a plan and a style of play that suited the players we had,you can`t say that now,they really look totally dis-jointed and lacking in ideas.
    As others have said,give Hugill some proper help,give him a proper strike partner,either Georgie or Nombe,can it be any worse ?

    I had some pushback on the other thread for suggesting Taylor has a "god complex" but what other phrases can we use to describe somebody who started, yet again, with the same drab god awful tactics that failed spectacularly in the first half against Coventry and saw us humiliated against Wednesday? Walt's description of clueless seems quite spot on but is it really that simple? Surely he can see it doesn't work? But it's like he has the belief if he keeps pushing it over and over and over then one day it will fall into place and he can say he told us so and that his "vision" was right all along.

    In the last two games we have played relegation rivals who were both low on confidence and on long winless streaks, and we choked against both of them purely down to the tactics. Bringing Georgie Kelly on after 60 minutes and rescuing a point is NOT a tactical masterstroke, it's the actions of a man thinking "I'm 30 minutes away from being sacked so maybe I should put my "vision" on hold for a while." Strange how when he puts the Taylor masterplan in the bin and actually plays to our strengths we see a huge upturn in performance.

    Positives from today. Georgie Kelly. Said it before I'll say it again, everytime this lad plays he is central to something good happening. Assists, a goal, more overall confidence going forward, the kid makes it happen. So no doubt he'll be on the bench against Ipswich (unless there's a board meeting before then). Much praise for Odoffin and the Viking also, Cafu was improved and put a shift in, as did Bramall. Beyond that the only other positive was the pipe band. The minutes silence for Remembrance was ruined by QPR fans not listening to the stadium announcer when he said a minutes silence would follow The Last Post.

    I don't see much point in giving Taylor until Christmas, he's made it clear he won't deviate from his negative and dire tactics, if I thought there was a chance he would then I'd say lets do it. But one point from six against sides as dire as Wednesday and QPR tells us everything we need to know sadly

    We will snake into the playoff’s next season in Lge1,we are going down. My MOM Odoffin by a country mile.Kelly is a goal scorer his movement in the box tells you that.Great goal because he was having that no matter what.

    Too many poseurs, too many that think they are better than they actually are, no guts, no effort and basically over rated journeymen

    There’s nothing there that’s “ Rotherham”
    I think you’ve hit the nail on the head. Unfortunately, the higher up in football the worse it gets.
    Watched Sheppey v Walsall yesterday and the passion was there for all to see. Proper football.
