One up front, against the shit. Totally and completely isolated! Fucking disgraceful.

The crime is not playing one up front. It's not playing to his strengths (again).

We haven't even managed a corner yet.

It's probably our best chance of scoring with Chester netting a few lately.

Fancy being halfway through this game and having absolutely no hope of us doing anything to win it? How the fuck did it get to this?

With Hogan up to why not stick Hourihane in behind him?

Lansbury would be better I think. Hourihane's more of a box to box player.

Think him and Gabby will be on very soon.

Surely, at home, we should be the ones taking it to them. Great atmosphere, judging from the avtv commentary.

I'd like to see more from all of our team. I thought Lansbury was signed to provide those late runs(+goals) into the box? What is Adomah doing?  Sigh. Garbage. I do think the players we have are better than they're currently showing. Shackles appear to be on, with no apparent reason for such tactics.

Patience with Bruce is wearing very thin. Bacuna-should never be in the team. Would love to see a manager with some creative tactics. Would also love Grealish to grab the game by the scruff of the neck, also.

Come on lads

Last season was crap start to finish. This season with so much more optimism it's depressing to think this is the kind of football we have to look forward to and still being in this crap division.

Nearly an hour into a game at home to a side fighting relegation that haven't won since Moses was a lad and we've had 0 corners and 2 off target shots.
