Not attacking the Holte second half did it

I don't think Emery has been schooled, we just haven't had anywhere near enough final 3rd quality against 10 men.

Emery has been schooled today. Brentford have looked comfortable for most of the game.

The players are out there with a man up. Of all things to blame..

That lot can't do the double over us, surely?

This is shit. Knock it around a bit then chuck it in the box. If that's the plan, put Mings in there.

This is so poor. We’ve produced virtually nothing.

If you are relying on crosses then cross it quickly.

There's a reason we don't lump it in the box when we're playing well. What's the fucking point of doing it now?

We could play like this for another hour and still not score. They’ve hardly come out of their own box let alone half

It's pretty miserable, especially after the performance at St. James past week and now staring down the barrel of consecutive home defeats against very mediocre opposition.

The truth is a combination of misfortune with injuries, some very dubious officiating and a lack of bite in attack.

Unfortunately I have a horrible feeling we'll sink out of the top 5 to a resurgent Yanited, which is sickening but not in the least but surprising.
