    Who is to blame?

    I just looked. At Christmas we were 2 points behind Walsall in 1st place and also 2 points Burton in 2 place. As it stand now we are 12 points behind Burton in 1st place and 10 points behind Wigan in 2nd place. That is one hell of a fall from grace. Burton have been stuttering too, so it could...

    Murphy

    That's the big concern. If Lameiras came in and grabbed that role by the scruff of the neck he'd be playing every week. Too often he flatters to deceive. Murphy seemed to lack pace yesterday.

    Who is to blame?

    Big factor I think. If you recall, in the transfer window TM said we just missed out on a wide player and then the budget dictated we could no longer bring one in. We have been desperate for someone who can go down the wing and get the ball into the box. Something seriously has to change now...

    Sheffield United

    Disagree there. People jumped up out of their seats and started cheering. Didn't come across as relief to me. More, yes! About time!

    Team for Tuesday. What would you change?

    I just wish he would give Ricketts a rest. He's gone from a reliable steady Eddie to an error prone, slow as a tortoise weak Iink.

    I didn't understand all the stick for Murphy. He was very frustrating for sure, but I think that was more down to the wrong choices he made as much as anything else. I was crying out for him to take players on rather than keep crossing it from deep or shooting from the same angle. Seemed like...

    He was. Can't see that he did anything wrong at all. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

    Would like to see Henderson get a start too. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

    Did he? Can't remember who put the ball through. If it was Lameiras then fair play and I will accept that, but the rest of his play was poor. Would say Lameiras is exactly what we don't need at the moment. I think we need the likes of Henderson, Tudgay and Rose. Players who will run a battle...

    Team for Tuesday. What would you change?

    I do wish TM would drop Ricketts.. If he wasn't captain I think he would consider it, but just can't see it happening. Lorentzson is a much more attacking footballer who likes to support the forward line and I think that would give us a different dimension. Ricketts offers very little going...

    Just shows how out of sorts they were when we played them. We caught them on a very bad day.

    Yep. He stood out for sure.

    I think nearly everything Lameiras did ended up with him losing possession, passing the ball out of play or putting a poor cross in. I didn't see him do anything of note, other than put us in trouble unfortunately. I really, really don't think Lameiras is the sort of player we need right now...

    Things you like and dislike about your missus

    What annoys me is I come home and then my wife and my daughter ask how we got on. I tell them we lost and they then say 'Right, that's you in a bad mood then!' Which then puts me in bad mood! They do it all the time and I'm never in a bad mood until they tell me I am!;)

    Nope. I have been positive all season long. I got negative about our automatic chances after Burton and got really concerned after Scunthorpe. The Bury game though made me think that maybe we might be back on track. Don't keep changing my mind. When we went 11 points clear of 7th place I...

    If we are lightweight across the midfield, the obvious answer is Rose. He has some physicality about him.

    But Lameiras came on and was even worse than what was already out on the pitch. He was simply dreadful.

    Glad you said Brummie murdered in Nuneaton, cos if it had just been a murder in Nuneaton it could have been one of many thousands of houses.

    We keep saying that don't we. :( Our winning run was one game in a row. Keep thinking we are going to click into gear and we don't. I really liked TM trying to change things with the 3 subs today. Thought it was very brave, but I am now starting to question him in general. I think it is now...
