First time in my life I’ve turned it off and will watch another game.

that feel good factor at the end of may/ beginning of June has totally been kicked out of me in the space of 3 months.

All them speaking of relegation, we were never expected to get anything here, this was what’s expected they are currently top of the league and we are bottom what do you expect 3-0 City win?

Rose is good on the ball but shocking defensively

Could have been 1-1, but also could have been 4-0. We have been dominated

He can't start second half with the same personnel surely?

Recurring theme, we're well in the game (despite being second best) but 2 atrocious goals again & some really basic passes just given away constantly.
Only Sheaf & Walker deserve any kind of credit in that half.

Season won't be defined by these kind of results, Norwich are levels above us, but we do ourselves no favours.

Why is every goal we concede soft as shit? It's never a bloody worldy that we can't do anything about, it's always a gift, wrapped up with care by us. Sick of it.

Because we were until recently playing with the same back line as L1, now we’ve sold one of them.

We are often trapped in because we are so deep even their fullbacks can get right forward , this is creating panic stations hence gifting them the ball , it's very easy to see what's happening here ... shite tbh

All to do with the first game of the season at home being called off.We would of beat Rotherham momentum back again.

He never does half time subs. I’m not sure he’s ever done one has he?

Is 4 defeats in 5 or 10 wins in 42 games not relegation form then?

If you had to predict where we'd finish based on what you've seen, what would you say though?

Based on what I’ve seen if say between 15th and 20th. (If we had Lady Luck in a couple of our games we could be 5 points better off)

Based on the fact that we have not been focussed given all the off the field speculation and pitch fiasco, have our best player O Hare out, and not had Hamer for one of our games, I’d say we can finish around 15th.

If we can't drop players who cant be arsed to play we might as well pack up for the season and play the kids ready for league 1

Two mistakes two goals. We keep doing the same thing! That apart we were very much in this as we grew into the game. That now has changed somewhat. Not sure what Robins does from here. Norwich with some pretty football at home but no real threat until we gifted the ball tbf. They are very suspect at the back and we can get at them with Gyokeres on the pitch. Allen is pased by at this level sad to say. Sheaf still looking for his form. BUT it's not over, we have to come out now and we are better when we do that. We are definately missing our best player and i hope he is back soon becuase he will inject enthusiasm as much as cause problems. I have some hope of a 2-2 here becuase I only have Sky Blue glasses.

Dabo distinctly looks like he just can’t be arsed.

Oh and the wife kindly rearranged the in laws coming over so we could go to this after all. Good decision

The problem is players don’t need much of an excuse to drop their heads and with the pitch mess everyone’s feeling sorry for themselves and that the worlds against them* We need the big personalities in the changing room to step up. Where’s the fighting spirit that led to all the late goals last season ?!

*We have had shit luck so far and dodgy disallowed goals don’t help !

One of the issues for me is how exposed we are when a midfielder makes a mistake.

First goal obviously on Hamer, but a decent centre back doesn't give Pukki 5 yards of space either side to run into. Was the easiest pass for their midfielder to make because no one was anywhere near him.
