I would think it's been worse since Hunt came in and Maddison came back from injury.

Yeah, we went 6 games unbeaten, picking up 14 points, including beating Gillingham to go top following Reda's injury, so it didn't hinder us. There's been a lot of changes in the squad since that game, and I agree it's more down to that than Reda's injury.

Half time, we're still 6th. Win next 2 games (i know:D) and we'll still be in the mix. P.S. I'm going to be drinking several pints before the Rochdale game!

I would get Henderson on and go a little bit more direct might even make the keeper kick one instead of rolling it out and putting people into trouble

Embarrassing really

Even walking off they don't looked hyped up despite it only being HT

Even when fans chanted, nothing

I'm beginning to think something seriously wrong in the dressing room. Whereas a coulee months ago they looked like a team and were up for each other...now a shambles of disinterested individuals

I can understand a run of bad results but why are the performances so terrible. We don't seem to be close to competing. There should have been a big reaction from the performance on Saturday but it just seems like more of the same.

You do have to wonder what is behind it. Maybe it is something like that. Early in the season we had a very young squad who were really hungry and up for it and seemed to have a bit of an 'all in it together' kind of attitude.

As we've added experience to the squad we've got worse.

Embarrassing first half.
Passing it out from the back every time and then being chased down until it's forced back to Goalie. Who then is forced to do a big kick to nowhere.
We try and play it out but no one in a position to accept it. Ends with a boot towards Armstrong that ends up with the goalie.
Ricketts is easy pickings.down this right hand side.
We have the wind in second half whatever that means.

Tougher questions have to be asked of Mowbray...the wheels have spectacularly come off, all the 'we can't win every game, it's tough' etc is bilge...

Sounds like it means the wind will help our passes reach their players!

Maybe job had a bit to do with team morale ending up being shit I remember him putting a picture on instagram after the crewe game with arma maddison and I think Murphy with a comment like looking for self praise or something like that.

I could take dropping points to the teams right up at the top. After all every team has a dip in form. But we then went into a run of supposedly easier games and are dropping points all over the place. Something has gone very wrong. The most worrying thing is the players don't seem that bothered.

It certainly appears as if something has happened behind the scenes. The way we are losing, the individual performances and overall work ethic are a complete contrast from a few months ago.

There will only be so far I guess, we are dropping like a stone.

It is all well and good being in the top 6 still off early form, but while other teams around us and above us win games their form will help them through.

To put a positive slant on it, as we are so awful tonight, you would have to take a 0-1 as a very good result wouldn't you?

Happened before to Mowbrays teams
