1-0 Swansea 74 mins

Swansea: 0-0 at Half time. Bookings galore for us and a feeling that we are not in control.

Not in control now ……

[BaggieSteve]

Looks like it’s going to be another wretched defeat. The away form, which is incredibly consistent, places so much pressure on the home results. A slump in that and the outcome looks very ominous

Please please please get this f$&king useless manager out of our club.
His team selection from the start was awful, Diakite is a liability who should have been off at halftime!!! He can’t pass, can’t tackle and was on a yellow card.
I’m actually watching with family from the USA, (who know jack shit about ‘soccer’) but some of their comments are spot on.
‘Why does your team keep giving the ball to the other team’ ‘why don’t your team run after the ball’ ‘is he (Heggabo) hurt? Is that why he’s gone off the pitch, he was doing all the running’ and perhaps the most cutting comment ‘do people actually pay money to watch soccer in England’
I mean they are Americans whose idea of sport is big boy rounders, but they’ve got a point.

It has got to be the end now …. Norwich winning or were, not sure if finished, puts us seven points above the drop zone ……. How much longer / lower before we act.

Enzo just left Chelsea …. Anyone fancy a pint on a former hero?

---

Norwich won 2-1 …… we’re now closer to the drop zone than the playoffs zone.

So - are we all looking forward to the Cup game, then?

[Blue Baggie]

Nobody likes a told you so.
Worse for me is I've now decided our new owners are gutless.

I watched the first half today, but I was lucky enough to miss the second half with an appointment.

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.
