I don't think I care any more. Is that a bad thing?

Not too worried really. We needed a shock to concentrate the board's mind on what is needed and the LC, well meh. Don't care. Now at least people may shut up about all these players who can't get a games who are miles better than the admittedly arse league starters. On that showing  it's perfectly obvious why Grealish, Okare, Amavi etc., can't get a game

No leaders and the same core of awful players stinking the pitch out.

You want to get promoted then you must purge the side and squad of utter garbage like Hutton, Richards, Okore, Gardner and Gestede.

More mentally and physically tough players like Elphick, less headless, positionally confused shite like Richards.

Purge them with sword and fire.


Yep the likes of Elphick and McCormack need to be followed by more mentally strong players. Richards should never play again ever.

So about this good core group Roberto ??  anyone we know?

He was talking about Brummie band Napalm Death, a good Grindcore group I think.  Certainly wasn't talking about any of our lot.

I'd say headless chickens, but that would require that they still had spines to do the running around.

Its difficult to believe how bad we can be. I'm just sick and tired of watching these f.....s go through the motions. Not one player was prepared to stand up and be counted
in that second half, against a team that we had completely dominated for 25mins. God knows if Rotherham go a goal upon Saturday.

at the moment I have to say "if Rotherham"  you think theres any doubt, most of these will play Saturday, and trust me vp will be a quiet place Saturday.

VP will be a boiling cauldron of rage, anger and disbelief when we inevitably turn out more of the same dross.

We need to start at the back and shore up the defence asap. When confidence is so brittle we need to rely on a solid backline when things get tough like that 2nd half. Unfortunately other than Elphick & Baker I wouldn't trust any of the others at the minute. Obviously Amavi needs time but I'd quite happily bin all the rest off. I bet Luton couldn't believe their luck 2nd half, they should have filled their boots.

I have to agree with those saying we haven't even reached "a new low" yet.

I admit to knowing fuck all about Rotherham but they really must fancy their chances of winning at VP.

Huddersfield will have been watching that too.

It WILL get better again. One day it isn't going to be as bad as it is now. That's what I'm clinging on to.

I think RDM,s plan tonight was to put some of our players in the shop window in the hope that some bids may come in for them. Unfortunately the plan failed as even the rioters and looters would have passed by our shop without giving it a second look.

Baker is shite, positionally he's almost as bad as Richards he just doesn't have the ego to charge up front. He needs to be replaced.

That was fugly.

I did think Gardner was doing better than Sunday though, so surprised to see him getting singled out. Especially considering nobody mentioned how far out of position Amavi was for their equalizer. It feels like RDM surrendered at half time with those subs, probably saving them for Rotherham ?

That should also dispel the Ayew-Grealish-Green-McCormack hope.

We have got far too many rubbish players. If RDM puts the same clowns out on Saturday then he's not the manager for us.

Cunning plan of Okore's to ensure we didn't have to risk the possibility of tiring extra time.

We'll be fighting fit and raring to lose against Rotherham now.

I've mentioned before at the lack of urgency in Transfer market....I think it's plain to see that at least 4 or 5 players with desire and leadership are needed. Confidence is vital and it's so fragile at the slightest set back.
