Somebody has been sick at the back. Ergh.

We have been much too slow in moving the ball, but we are finding space.

Missed a sitter and have been guilty of some wasteful crossing and passes. Yet despite that, we look much better than Stoke, who are desperate. The goal was such poor timing.

Adomah is shocking. Swap him out and there's something in this for us.

"Another frustrating result Dean."

"Yes no, I thought we controlled the game well, and there was nothing in it."

Can’t be helped not his players...

It’s not just that we are losing.
It’s the fact we are now just a very poor imitation of shite Steve Bruce team.

I have found a stream and I wish I hadn’t. Watching Hourihane be the usual ****** that he is, is bad for my blood pressure.
Add, Adomah, el khazi and Kodjia to the mix and the veins in my neck are standing out.

I see the team sheet and my heart sinks, you know exactly what the players are going to do.
The easy reaction is to sack the manager,and then what?
Sadly I think we have got to rebuild, it will be slow and he may not be the right guy but the next guy might not be either.

Bruce who couldn't create a thing with us is now 3 up with Sheff Wed and including a goal scored from an overhead kick. Smith’s old side Brentford have scored 3 vs Hull and are playing beautiful football.

We are fucking cursed

Whoever the manager is, the one thing we have to do in the summer is get some sodding pace into the side. Physical and mental speed as we are so slow in everything.

We’ve just been really unlucky 12 games in a row.

We have had no pace for a few years now.

Slow, pedestrian, predictable and sloppy. No goal threat, shit midfield, no passion.  Same as last week, and the week before that, and the week before that. Until we can put Jack and SJG back in that midfield I can't see anything changing.

I miss those days when the Mail would report Doug has called an emergency board meeting. Do they still have those because one must be around the corner.

"Yes no, I thought we controlled the game well, and there was nothing in it."

‘We started the first four minutes really well setting traps for the rats synonymous with Stoke.  Then we fall asleep and give someone of the quality of Vokes time to backheel into the net.  Apart from that and the other sixteen chances and four more goals they scored I thought there was nothing in the game.’

Bruce is playing with another managers team, give him time.

Absolutely dreadful so far. And that's being kind IMHO

Some of these fuckers aren't even trying i'm convinced of it.
