Bruuuuuuunooooo

What was that?

Yesssss

Cheeky Schar

I hope this is the last time we see Lonstaff for a while, he's been beyond atrocious

Can't expect a 17 year old to be taking pens

How can you be that big and that poor in the air?

We don't have the confidence to win penalties

Howwwww

Why did Longstaff not even try to run on to that??

Longstaff stopping play during a counter ffs

We really have hit rocl bottom across the pitch, players look shell shocked and devoid of any confidence and composure.

Miggy determined to win this himself here, just give it to him

This is so hard to watch

Yesssssss

Pretty simple, the more you pay the quicker it gets done ?‍♂️ media pressure means nowt

But also saying 8 games without a win (not that I'm saying you have) is also disingenuous without context. As I said a few pages ago, we look shot of confidence and belief, we went into the game last night expecting to lose, like lambs to the slaughter. I still think it's rashly unfair to judge Howe in the midst of an apocalypse and he should be judged when he has all his players back next season plus new recruits. Let's see what he's learned from this season and how he tackles next.

Took the perfect opportunity to stick the boot in and try and trample us down further in the protection of their precious 6. I won't even bother to dissect the piece as it's all a bunch of conjecture, bias and wilful ignorance. This season looks like a write off after unprecedented bad fortune, weird and untimely injuries, unforseen bans and ridiculous and relentless cup ties. We are in a rut, fatigue, half fit players and an unrelenting injury list put paid to any delusions of grandeur we might have had for this season, battling displays from patched up players and literal children eventually have succumbed to defeats and ultimately a complete loss of belief. This is a culmination of what has preceeded it, we shouldn't have any excuses now but how can you take so many punches in a season and not feel it? Mentally we look shot, rabbits in the headlights tonight watching the inevitable unroll in front of them in slow motion and not having the mental fortitude to do anything about it. It's been rough for Eddie but, for me, it's how he bounces back next season with fresh recruits and all his players back at his disposal that should decide his fate not the season that's akin to the 13th day of the Alamo.

This infuriated me the most, it was clear they just wanted to limit the space out and we kept playing it back into tighter and tighter spaces giving them an easier ball to close down.

Got to hope Willock can come straight back in and make his mark, agree Almiron has been poor and needs to come off to, switch Gordon right and Barnes left.

Unbelievable how much we miss big Joe, no bite in midfield at all, Longstaff is anonymous and Miley is showing his age.

So ponderous on the ball, we look absolutely shot here, Karius the only one awake on the pitch, absolutely horrific and I'm not one for hyperbole.

This is all kinds of depressing

Proper league 2 goal that

I saw that, Rice just passing off the ball ambling through our midfield and receiving the ball in the space behind far too easily.
