First half was absolutely dour. It was a game that highlighted the demise of the Championship. Two terrible teams, playing poor, negative football. I'm sure the second half would've been much the same but we inevitably conceded.
For me, Mason has to go now. I think 9 away defeats on the spin is untenable. I really don't see how the owners can justify keeping him.
I appreciate our squad is crap. We've got some dreadful players. However, we need a manager who can get something out of crap. Even an "anti football" manager would be an improvement at this point.
Bikul keep talking about how brilliant they've done lowering the age of our squad. That's all good and well, but they seem to have forgotten that the young players coming in have to be able to play. Most of them aren't worth a penny.
Big January transfer window needed if we're to push on. We need a complete overhaul in the middle of the park. Some proper full backs and a creator who can pick a pass. Mason isn't the man to oversee those transfers.
For me the biggest issue is a goalkeeper that is better than league two level quality that we have now, a lot of the points lost are down to goalkeeping errors, also a poor keeper leads to uncertainty at the back and indecision resulting in the goals we keep gifting, we are only losing by the odd goal for the most part. Get a decent custodian in, stop the stupid goals and the points will start arriving in abundance. Our defence is more jittery than a Christmas gifted rampant rabbit and that is supposed to wobble.
