It’s like having a piece of wet lettuce in goal.

Not watched the goals back but felt like he could have done more for all 3 today, 2nd was most egregious though.

Cannot believe we’ve ended up in this situation.

The first two goals were both 0.2xGOT

So he's conceded 2 goals from 0.4xGOT

Class. Nice one Brad.

Looks like a competition winner. People were happy for his clean sheets, the same ones who desperately said Wilsons clean sheet were down to a great defence, even though zero shots on target at him. He had a couple of easy saves late on but was 3 goals from e on target earlier and flapping at test 3rd looked a joke albeit far end from us. Complete wanker.

He's not even good enough for League 2. That's how bad he is. I think Lee Burge is miles ahead.

If only we could sign an emergency goalkeeper! Someone with previous play off experience, maybe someone who has won the golden glove before. Shame.

The challenge with the Brad Collins case is working out the argument for as FL clearly feels he’s better. Is it that Wilson’s slightly eccentric behaviour costs him? Sounds ridiculous but I’m clutching at straws here.

It speaks volumes that Frank won't talk about individual performances. He's fuming and should be after that.

I actually feel bad for him.

You look at a performance like that, and you can't single one player out, as they were all dreadful. Everyone else, you expect better from. Collins, though, is a rabbit in headlights; terrified, frozen, waiting for his doom.

There comes a point when you have to accept that picking him based on that fact is to our detriment.

He’ll save that for indoors but he needs to reflect a bit himself.

He's absolutely honking, but I think he was unsighted for the first.

Many. He was basically bottom of the PSxG standings (for anyone who’d played a significant no of games) last time I checked and he’s only slipping further

Said it in the match thread.
Being an actual goalkeeper and saving shots is your bread and butter.
He does not save shots.

Just cannot believe he's still playing. It cost us last season and it's going to cost us this season.

I am so desperate for him to redeem himself but he's finished with us. He should not have played another game for us after Portsmouth and it's remarkable that he's still being given a chance.

Go back and watch the final few games of last season. It's genuinely disgraceful. The Hull game was utterly embarrassing.

Collins probably costs us close to a goal per game at this point. Is that really worth the better distribution?

It may be an unkind thing to say but the fact is he is just a really, really poor keeper. Doesn’t stop shots, come for crosses or inspire any sort of confidence. At a conservative estimate I’d confidently say he’s cost us 10 points at least, single handedly. He just can’t play again.

Not many do but we've gone long past that stage.

Wilson should have been in the moment Dovin got injured.

I'm sorry I don't feel sorry for him at all. He's been abysmal and cost us so many points this season. I don't want him within a million miles of a Coventry City team next season.

He gets a decent wage to perform and handle the pressure. He is not good enough.

Get rid of him, the only time we don’t concede is when the opposition have zero shots on target. Please play Wilson against Luton Frank.
