Very lacklustre half, would like to see Godden on sooner rather than later and get on the front foot a bit more

We're very predictable and not very good.

We just attacked then and had Gyökeres with two other players meandering forward. Essentially they had 9 players against our 3.

Defensively appealing as well. Let's hope the second half is better!

Take 0-0 at half time , mcnally lost his man and they should have scored ..

We've no pace , urgency or quality out there really .. way below our best

Defensively very suspect and the usual reliance on Gyo to work a miracle up front. Should be behind really

Lack of ideas. Palmer not getting in the game. Think Eccles has been tidy. Doyle looking sluggish. I would bring Burroughs on at half-time for Norton-Cuffy.

The Box not really in that 45 at all

Not sure what we can do off the bench to change it. Walker/Godden for Allen looks the only one

A really disappointing half off the back of a really good performance against Millwall, those that impressed last time are largely quiet today. We look like a 1 man team.

0-0 at half time away, is always a decent score. Been impressed with Rathbone for them.

Scant consolation but few goals anywhere in the Championship and sounds like the other games as bad as ours

Not true, I'm watching and he tackled a player drove with the ball, playing it forward to Gyokeres who had a shot.

Yeah, he's not done much but that was a good run, especially as their player tried to take him out.

Reality is we're not half as good without O'Hare. Take Sheaf out too and we just don't have enough to compensate for that. Always thought we could be competitive near the top if everyone was fit but squad doesn't have the overall quality to cover.

That’s basically the story of us in the Championship so far.

We were very good midweek against millwall , who are infinitely better than this mob , problem is we're simply playing below capable levels
