Having just watched the whole game back, id say Torp was the no1 suspect, he was a spectator for most of the game, Allen worked harder but he's just completely inefective, and shouldn't be any where near the starting line up. Honestly, Eccles and Palmer/ Lats would of done a far better job...

I thought him and Allen could of done better for the goal. But no one covered themselves in glory. Plenty of work to do ahead of Brizzle on Tuesday, but I'm sure we won't start with Allen and Torp together in midfield.

Should of 2 footed the twat, teach them early, that's what I say 😝😝😝

Because they have a poor squad and are currently missing key players with injury. They started with a young inexperienced 18 year old teenage kid who'd only ever made 3 appearances at this level leading the line today, which makes our defeat even more frustrating.

Tbf I was absolutely gob smacked when I saw that starting line up. Being without Sheaf is one thing but to then leave Eccles on the bench is unforgivable, you can cope without one but not both, it leaves us with no DM cover or leadership.

We do have options, but we picked the wrong ones. I don't think we'll play as badly again as we did today (hopefully) But did we miss Sheaf, yes we did, even a one legged Sheaf.

MR fucked up picking Allen and Torp together. How the fuck Eccles and Palmer are left on the bench in preference to those lightweights is baffling imo. Our squad should of easily coped without Sheaf against a piss poor Stoke, but we made them look like top 6 contenders, that's down to...

No, because we failed to start the season well 😘

Sounded confused and shell shocked, much like his performance.

You can't play well if you don't have any control in midfield. Playing Allen and Torp together hands that control to the opposition. I don't want to labour the point, but Allen should not be in our squad, and Torp is nowhere near the pace of the championship at present. This has been...

I wouldn't of played Palmer as a CDM, Eccles would of fulfilled that position Palmer would of replaced Torp who was a total passenger today. I would never start Allen in the Championship, to do so is utterly baffling. And yes we were poor everywhere. Simms looked like the Simms of the...

We was shit and it's all my fault?

I'd of started with Eccles and Palmer for Allen and Torp. Allen looks good in pre-season friendlies, but when the games start for real he can't cope with the physical side, he's a league 1 player at best, and shouldn't be anywhere near starting. Torp has very good technical ability, but...

Just ordering an Uber 🤣🤣🤣

He looked up for it today, which is more than Can be said for some of the others. Got to blame MR for that utterly baffling team selection.

4's. All round apart from Rudoni 6

Hardly a meltdown, it was just a very poor performance, not helped by playing Allen and Torp together in midfield. Neither could tackle their way out of a brown paper bag. We handed control of midfield to Stoke right from the off.

Well it would appear MR doesn't agree with you.

Yea because we're creating so much without him arnt we.

We're crying out for Eccles and Palmer on for Torp and Allen. Wright for EMC after the hour, and maybe BTA for Simms. Once we settle down a bit we'll get the breakthrough.
