That is something that has stumped me 96. We need a goal so bringing on the attack minded Gamboa is a good call but why bring off Poco and move Wisdom to an unfamiliar position. Poco will offer a hell of a lot more attacking threat than Wisdom will at left back.

Poco must be injured, he has to be. If not Alan needs to be sectioned under the mental health act.

I cant see where our next goal is coming from, let alone a win.

Despite the individual mistakes made today if we were playing a team more ruthless with their finishing, we would be a lot more than 2 goals down! That's for sure. And I'm sure the result will be blamed on those mistakes by the club.

Didn't want to make my first post on the forum to be a negative one, but from what I've seen today, make no mistake Alan Irvine will take us down.

#IRVINEOUT!

Already fed up with this season, and I haven't even seen half of our new signings play. Only thing can cheer me up now is seeing that JP has brought down the axe on the SSN yellow scroller.

[Beefy 1965]

He took Poco off , and a £10 million pound striker when we were 2 down and sticks Blanco out wide left

Im struggling for positives here about this guys Management.

I would love to have given this guy more time, but to be honest he team selection and subs are mind boggling

If football is indeed a religion then,...............I just became an agnostic.


Totally underwhelmed.

Somebody contact Pulis QUICKLY

Absolutely gutted, in the second half players walking around with the occasional jog, standing watching players rather than closing them down or putting a foot in.  Pocognoli must be looking at the rest of the team before the substitutions thinking what have I got myself into. God only knows what he thought when he was the one substituted.  Wisdom I thought was iffy again, I suppose Morrison and Berahino put in a shift.

Beefy in all honesty I can understand him taking Ideye off he was just making the numbers up and little else. Until the team learn the way he likes the ball played to him and the way he plays, not a lot of point playing him from what I can see.

Still to early to worry too much, but we must improve in the last third and stop hoofing the ball up the pitch to noone.

[wba_1996]

There is no point giving him any more time. We are in a mess again and he has nowhere near the managerial ability required to sort it out, maybe that's why has he never been appointed by any other club in the top 2 tiers? I was disgusted by the appointment in the first place but tried to give him a chance, but he has shown himself up to be exactly what we were told and feared - a negative and failed League 1 manager.

The longer we take to replace him the harder it will be for the new man to keep us up.

[Beefy 1965]

If Lescott is never going to play for us,

Wisdom can't defend for toffee at RB ,(see what i did there) must be moved to Cb with Jonas,

Gamboa to RB who looked really good when he came on with 2 cracking runs.

Samaras looked Quality when he came on, great chest control, Saido did well Poco again good , Oh i give up looking for positives,..

Salop i understand where your coming from,

But at 2 down i would have 4 strikers on the pitch to try and get us something from a game where most have been well below par

Save ourselves and extra few months, He's got to go. Irvine hasn't got a clue.
