This 100%. We're a decent side with not a lot to play for at the end of a long season. I'm sure Nick will still be crying into his half time pint though.
We have been poor. Can barely string anything together.

How's the form table looking?

A very wet lettuce finish to the season.

We’re pretty clueless once we’re in the final third.

We’ve been stringing plenty together, unfortunately there’s no penetration and no end product.

Their keeper made a great save , they aren't that comfy we do have to be real here we've been the better side .

We need to do more but it's not as bad as being made out here
Palmers miss was really poor. Running on to that is just a dream for any competent finisher to put away and he totally fucked it.

Great back heel by Palmer but I'm sorry he's lazy, spent most of the half hiding, absolutely no desire to get up and around Simms, drops far too deep, zero movement, numerous times sheaf and Kelly have been further forward when we've been on the attack. Off the ball, he lets wright and Simms do his running for him, let's players run off the back of him. I'd love to see his gps stats compared to his team mates.

I've never seen a number 10 with less desire to get in the box.

That's said, everyone else has also been poor, really poor. Like Fernando said, we're not the only team to play in the fa cup, and actually had a pretty easy run in in the early rounds.

Dasilva cannot defend...
Again I feel like we're losing to a side that hasn't had to do much for their lead. We're soft as shit.

Like Hull, a team that has looked vulnerable when we dare to attack them and threatens mostly when we give away the ball or allow players to run into the box unopposed. Too often it's just stringing loads of passes in front of the opposition, doing nothing then getting countered.

Shoooooooooooot

Poor piece of defending and think Collins could have done better. Otherwise, not a bad performance. Apart from one loose pass, Latibeudiere has been very good; Kelly and Sheaf have played well in the middle; Van Ewijk has been decent and Eccles our best player. Unfortunately, Wright and Simms have been poor.

We've been ok. We're just lacking that bit of edge. We're clearly a team with nothing to play for.

He’s suffering from being a utility player. Totally right footed playing left centre back so every pass is predictable. Would be better with Bidwell playing there.
Yeah but we are obsessed with playing him

I thought we did pretty well, goal aside and JDS getting caught again.

Definitely should be level. Simms should have done better on a couple of occasions and Kelly and Palmer both nearly scored.

It's been pretty decent all things considered. Da Silva is getting roasted though.

I think we can get something out of this still. Need to sort out down the left hand side though
