    A bit baffled!

    How come all we hear is how young our squad is yet when we roll over and have our balls ticked only 4 days after the good display at West Brom it’s down potentially fatigue? ( I’m abroad and this was on Ifollow). Now correct me if I’m wrong 1. These people are professional athletes- I know people who do non sport jobs for a living and run far more miles than these will in a week and will compete in 36+ mile races each week and 2. What they clearly lack in ability at present they should make up for in endeavour. Here’s a suggestion we’re just not good enough!

    We are crap in the final third and have no composure in this area, I saw collins laughing at something a fan said after a Huddersfield player tried to lob him (could you imagine such as schmeical being so jovial in this scenario?) and finally 2 minutes afterThomas came on he ducked a challenge. It might sound petty but it’s little things like that that can sum up an entire mindset , yes we might not spend the same money as other clubs but we need to start being a set of nasty *******$. It’s as if because this young squad thing has been well documented that some players might have given themselves a ready made excuse rather than rolling their sleeves up.

    Huddersfield for the million’s theyve spent deservedly won but will lose more than they win and have a management team well out of their depth

    Mcgheehan needs dropping as well!!

    The influence of sports science is the biggest factor renno in players and their physical condition .

    In times gone by players played who were probably jaded and we fans just put it down to having a poor game because we didn't know any better .

    The pace of the game is far greater than it once was and the standard in the PL and The Championship has risen considerably .

    You just can't have jaded players today and expect them to perform .

    normal service is resumed, why cant we pass a ball, why cant we get passed a defender, and why cant we score from 6 yard this is the third/fourth time in three games that cam has missed/not scored when it was so easy to score that most on this board would have

    Ev we ed a pen this seerson ? Dunt kno if we wa close tu wun today , a warnt theer , Prestons ed 6 Millwall , Charlton and few moor ev ad 4 or 5 , wen wa last time we got wun ? Dunt wi gerrin box ? Not learned arta cheeut ? Sum ov arr players even apologise to opponents , and then help pick them up , Bizarre , a dunt like any cheertin , we ev to be "streetwise" fo want ov a betta word,
    It's goowin to bi a long hard seerson , am enjoying not goowin nar , its totally pointless ,
    fo them that go, av no problem , hope things turn rarnd for us all ,
    It feels like a big opportunity missed this season , and it's all down to greed , lack of ambition , and takin fans for granted , show some respect to fans and our previous HC ,

    I think we had one pen and it was saved. I might be wrong because to save my sanity my brain is wiping most of this season as soon as the final whistle goes.

    I don’t care who they put in but McGeehan has got to be replaced.

    I don't like to single in out individual players , it takes the heat away from the true cause of our problems this season .

    For me McGeehan was immense last season and contributed massively to our promotion .

    Cameron is as good as we have unfortunately and can't be replaced with better quality as things stand right now .


    Most successful transfer window in our history .

    The rosters fine .

    !!!!!

    I’m thinking more about how his present form is going to effect him, he must know he’s not performing and I think he needs resting for his own good.
