[Nardendee]

In the bottom 4 as it stands

Disappointing to concede what looked like a soft goal right at the end. Don't know why Dawson protested so much.

Good defensive display for the most part; some good saves from Dawson.

James has put in some good crosses from our left. Should Powell have done better with his chance? Think so. Don't lean back, Joe. Basic technique.

That sums up our season, defended ok but this so called poor league is full of teams better than us, conceding so close to half-time will hit this mentally weak team a lot, expect at least two more for them in the second half. The long ball cost us again, we had a chance to play out the last minute and get to half-time level, but big boot and it comes straight back and eventually all the pressure pays off for them. Without Dawson it could have been three he pulled off three outstanding saves, we look a very weak poor team. When we get the ball we lose it so quickly because there is no movement and our players don’t drop into space to create the little triangles, no idea what we do in training. Martha brings nothing to this team, shocking footballer all ego, doesn’t chase doesn’t work hard does little with it when he gets it. Rafferty should have been on the right and hall further forward and Martha on the bench.

Piss poor defending, Dawson just watched ball pass him by into the net, not sure what he was kicking off about, I think it was just a bit of deflection to cover up his none attempt to save the weak shot.

Dawson not at fault with their goal. Douglas you could probably blame for not the blocking weak shot in but depends if he had time to react.

[Lolmorgan]

No sour grapes but I have not seen one team in Lge 1 that would survive in the Championship.

[Scum-Triumphant]

Their goal was definitely offside but they have been battering us so it was coming.
I actually think Martha has done well getting some tackles in but we have nothing up front and Yearwood offers nothing creative.

[Derbymiller]

Why wait to 52 minutes what is the difference from halftime? Took off a central midfielder who did ok and left Martha on?

[Lolmorgan]

Why did Powell not shoot.I still think we can get a point out of this just up the tempo.

Rebrand us as Rotherham United Nil

Let’s not mention the fact he picked the ball up at the halfway line and beat two players to create the chance in the first place. How many times have Gore and Powell got the ball and signalled to others to give them some options, we have counted at least four times this half. The lack of movement to create options for our ball players is at a shocking level. Baptiste is a decent player in fact the back three have done well.
