    Yep, they were really closing us down in numbers and overrunning us, so we had so much less time on the ball. They really hunted in packs at times. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

    Psychological ploy. Mind games. Stand away from the goal and let the player stare at the big wide open goal in front of him. Then last second, take your place and become the obstacle to make the goal seem that bit smaller. Bleedin obvious, obviously, but it's amazing what little tricks can do...

    Ahh, training! With all that pressure and responsibility raining down on you, the nerves must be really kicking in. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

    Anyone going to dare do the ratings tonight?

    He's done it before I've noticed. Dived in when he has needed to stay on his feet. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

    I think you will find that not one single person has just blamed our keeper. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

    Fleck 7? Well it's all about opinions I guess but his passing was poor and on at least 2 occasions he gave away possession that could have quite easily resulted in a goal. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

    From what I recall though, they missed at least 2 sitters.

    It was such a hit and miss performance and players were doing some good things, but them making silly mistakes. To my mind, the only consistent player out there tonight (penalty apart) was JOB. Not sure I can mark anyone else accurately at all. Our performance was all over the place at times...

    Southend had only scored one goal in four games, so them bagging two tonight and looking like they could score more too at times, I think has to be a worry.

    I like Philips, but he does make a lot of mistakes and has been responsible for just as many goals as Willis has, if not more.

    But watch him closely. He very often doesn't know whether to come out and claim or hold his ground or stay on his back line. Very indecisive. That gives the back four the heebee jeebees,

    Completely. We looked like we could concede at any time tonight.

    No command of his box. Back 4 have very little faith in him.

    Don't know if anyone else sensed it too, but I could see a goal coming from Southend when they had that free kick for their first goal. Just felt it coming. Worryingly too, I was certain JOB was going to miss ours. It was a horrible psychic night out there tonight.

    Totally. I think most of us mistakenly believed we were going to be a much more solid unit after those first 2 games and clean sheets. Same old problems coming to haunt us yet again now though. Worryingly too, there were a lot more negatives out there tonight than positives. I thought...

    Only one half, but if this is a sign of things to come it's going to be a long hard season. As many of us keep saying, this squad is far too thin. Had a bad feeling about this game prior to kick off and unfortunately those fears have been realised so far. Hope I'm wrong, but I can't see us...

    Totally agree. My exact thought too. Tudgay for Murphy, who isn't offering enough. Armstrong needs the support too. Sent from my LG-D405 using Tapatalk

    People talked about a blip after the Walsall game. Could it now prove to be that the blip wasn't that one defeat , but in fact those first 3 wins? Now shipped 6 goals in 2 and a half games, so back to last season's woes, again we are being outmuscled and we are once again error riddled...

    So are they going to say we all should have spent £25 in Next? Hmmm, I smell a conspiracy. Next pay a 'commision bonus' to security guards for all the increased custom? Sent from my LG-D405 using Tapatalk
