    Lot of criticism of Allen but Palmer looks like he blew himself out in the first 10 minutes. Few nice passes since the goal but barely been on the ball.

    Should have dropped Waghorn back into midfield 5 minutes after our goal until we got some control back of the game.

    3 points between the 12 teams from 4th to 15th. Our budget handicap and the impact of that on the last 2 transfer windows is really coming to the fore now. Fear it's going to be a frustrating January and 2nd half of the season lacking any consistency.

    Waghorn Taveres

    In the absence of O'Hare, and against a Cardiff team lacking confidence, I would have started Waghorn over Palmer last night so that Waghorn got much needed minutes and so that we had a decent attacking change up in midfield for the 2nd half. Whether you think Waghorn is shit or not, he's one of...

    Does feel very predictable this half. Lacked intensity and ideas against a team happy for a point.

    Read an interview with Viveash earlier where he says that he and Robins are barely on speaking terms at the moment. Robins is blaming Viveash for his bald patch because every time Robins arrives to Ryton, Viveash gets him in a bear hug and gives him scrubs.

    We had a worse team at the Ricoh than Cardiff this season?

    Gyokeres has been given absolutely nothing all night and it's clearly getting to him.

    Would not have put money on a 0-0 in a game with Allsopp and Wilson in goal.

    We might as well just let VAR referee this game. The average time between the foul happening and the ref blowing his whistle has been 3 minutes 27 seconds so far.

    Fine line though for Robins. We moan that the bench players don't play enough minutes and look rusty when they are finally needed. If we win this game and get 60 minutes into Dabo's legs, it's a great decision. If we don't win though, he'll get criticised for it,

    We'll get Waghorn for Palmer and Burroughs for Dabo on 65. Tavares on 82 for Allen.

    Haven't liked him either. Given a few very innocuous decisions and let some of the more robust stuff go. Thought Philogene should have had a yellow earlier when he pulled Gyokeres shirt then just brought him down when he was beaten.

    Cynical from Kipre. That's at least 3 teams Gyokeres has just been hacked this half.

    Frustrating half really. We've not played badly but nothing like as fluid as we normally are. Nothing quite come off. The two times we have got the build up right Allen and Sheaf have missed from the penalty spot. On all the other occasions, our promising moments have been let down by the...

    At least Kelly's had a good first half though.

    Wintle was lucky there, chased Hamer and threw a tame elbow at him.

    He’s an 80th minute going for broke gamble, not a tactical master stroke! 🙂

    Absolutely fuck all on that bench to change the game up, as if we needed reminding how paper thin our squad is.

    Doug King Takeover

    Lee Carsley looks like he's going to knock him out.
