The failings that we all know about only too well made it a much more difficult game than it should have been, but we were much, much the better side.

They looked better in the second half, but in the first they didn't really look like a team at all (yet were winning!).

So? The game hadn't ended lmao

You can't judge scoreline too much at half time only the performance. We were playing well and that continued on the second half where we got our rewards

You need to look at what I wrote during and after Wednesday’s game which we lost. I judged that based on the performance not the result, same today.

What did you say Wednesday?

I know I said I was happy even tho we lost and I expected us to beat hull

It ended up happening. Going behind on the game shouldn't change the big picture outlook

Funny you notice what supports your narrative and ignore what contradicts it, anyway. Not going to argue.

We at least turned it around today and can build on that.

Still not convinced with Frank at the helm. These are good players yet we are not getting the best out of them.

That’s not your best post Paxman. Lampard deserves our support, what’s he worth, £80 mil, and yet he puts his reputation on the line for Cov. And I was thinking the opposite, I think he’s inherited a team where a number of the players aren’t good enough to take us where we want to be, which obviously isn’t down to him. We are seeing limited improvement, and loving Mark Robins as I do, I’m now in the camp of believing that he would have struggled to turn this lot around. Upper mid table with this squad this year will be a result.

A win is a win. Hull were abysmal. We weren’t that good. Some good play on both wings. Not much through the middle and nothing to really test the defence. Rudoni our best player followed by EMC

You said lampard would be a disaster

Keep going by all means. It.makes the wins even better for me and my cousin

We are 4 games into his tenure, nice to see you aren’t jumping the gun on him being considered a success.

EMC was fantastic today, great one on one, always looking to get in scoring positions, and the right amount of physicality for this league. Also enjoyed Rudoni and the way he links up with EMC. Two midfielders both trying to get into scoring positions; could be massive for us this season.

We look generally better. More organised and look like we have a plan. We do legit need some new defenders in the window though as you just can't trust us, even when we're on top, as they are a bit of a bomb scare.

Lampard just said best performance of his tenure so far. Also what I'm saying

I used to agree with robins post match every game mostly and his era was amazing. Hopefully bodes well for lampard that he agrees with someone like me too!

By far EMC and Rudoni's best games. Would have been very depressing if we had lost that. Hull were awful. I can see improvements at times, players getting into good positions to receive the ball when we win it back and start attacks. Missing Wright though, he would have put away some of the chances we have created in last few games

Think he played a big part in their goal not tracking back but Id need to see it again.
Other than that, he was superb.

Jds got done a few times too. However i think jds was excellent first half up until that moment.

I agree.

I like Bassette but at this stage in his career I think he is one to bring on with say twenty minutes to go against a tiring defence.

Yes, he was very good.

I particularly liked the way he stayed on his feet for our second goal when he could easily have opted to go down three times.

If we’re going to play down the flanks more and get crosses in, Simms has to play. I’m pretty sure he’d have got at least one goal first half.

Big, big win and played some good stuff in patches. Defence is still a worry.

One of his better games but he needs to learn when to pass it out to a defender and when to hoof it up the pitch
