Yeah - we DO seem to sign all the fragile, easily broken forwards.
It MUST be half their mentality, and half their physical state - aren't these the very things that should be closely looked at BEFORE we sign anyone??

To be fair both of their goals left palmer with little chance! Maybe could have defended better
Good attacking game

Ska'd, minimum to look for, minimum we got. Two points from two games. Ten away games without a win. What date do next year's championship fixtures come out, I'll put it in my diary.
Nine points from seven fixtures, we've dropped more points than we've picked up. Last season all over again. Give them to big a head start and we'll fail to reach even the play off spots again.
On holiday wasn't going to monitor well at least it's hot, sunny and dry here.

Well, as far as I'm concerned, 2 draws from 2 pretty tricky away games ain't that bad.
There are easier away fixtures than these 2, surely, so in my view, "we dun good".

Thought it was a poor game tonight, it was more a case of who was going to give it away rather than who was going to win it.
I just find it so frustrating me how slack our passing is. I just can't get my head around how a professional can pass to the opposition when under no pressure, but we seem to do it all the time. I know the conditions were poor, the lack of quality has to come down to poor concentration / not being arsed.
John Swift is the most frustrating because he's obviously got some talent. I know he scored tonight, but I just find the amount of times he passes to the opposition or skies a shot when he has all the time in the world to be criminal. You expect these sort of decisions from a teenager, but not a player who has played the number of games he has.
BTA as well. The lad works his socks off, so it's hard to be critical, but his first touch and ball playing is dreadful. The amount of times he misses the simple and obvious ball. That's 2 games he's gone through on goal and not even got a shot off. Just can't see how we expect to do anything in this league with him leading the line.
I suppose it's a decent point and probably more than I expected, but I just wish we could play some proper football. Controlled. Incisive. Entertaining. CC seems happy to persist with 5 at back rather than sacrificing one of the centre halfs for a Sarmiento or Grady. Just all feels a bit dour to me.
