The Barnsley lads are just far too poor on the ball. Slow to release it. Shit underhit passes far too often. Too lackadaisical all round. Hope it can be fixed but it’s been a season and no improvement. Their whole attitude bothers me TBH. Just don’t seem arsed.

Thomas reminds me of a Labrador puppy. Sometimes he wants to chase every ball, sometimes he'll break your best vase. Hopefully this time on the pitch leads to a smoothing out of the rough edges and an increased maturity will see him acting as a guide dog for the blind!

Kelly is a coward he shirks responsibility every time. Will play a square or backwards pass when options are on plays it to marked players rather than try it himself

You clearly don't understand football. He is there to win the ball and play it simple. To call him a coward behind your screen is cowardly act in itself. Do you remember how he sustained a long term knee injury from throwing himself at the ball and colliding with the post.

I can get on the we need a new number 1 train now tbh, an actual new one not Ben fucking Wilson, he can get in the bin.
The days of Godden, Allen and Kelly are at an end. I thank them but thank God!
Palmer... he's nice on the eye but he's beyond frustrating, he can go too.
Lati is just a bit rubbish.

37 conceeded in 24 games so far in 2024 I think. Not great to be fair and a fair few of them have been incredibly soft to give away.

Think Hull deserved their 3 points , they've come here to try and win a game of football whilst we've got it wrong again for 45 ..

Allen and Godden look washed, just couldn’t compete physically. Kelly is fine if you just want someone to sit in front of the defence and maintain possession.

Just show some pride in these games, too many players have just let themselves down in the league in this shit run of form.

Because then they’re playing against fresh defenders rather than ones with 45 mins in the legs… literally clueless mate.

Other than being harsh on Palmer tonight I agree with the rest. We need to decide what we want Lati to do though rather than play him in a different position each game.

They were pretty unimpressive to me given the spending, we’ve scored two for them. Hopefully don’t make the playoffs and fall in trouble next season.

It’s not about showing pride, I have no doubt that the physical and mental toll of Sunday played a part in the mistakes tonight.

We've been poor defensively for weeks.
Need a new keeper (essential), and Fadz type leader CB with a bit of pace

Allen is as much a CM as I am a top 0.1% OF model, but he added energy and movement that I thought we were lacking. There was a huge hold in the middle for too long before he came on.

Aside from his goal i thought Palmer was poor, the 4411 didn’t suit him Eccles or Dasilva.

Not in serious trouble, just enough to not be in contention next season.

Don't think Robins got it wrong at all. The plan was always to stay in the game until we could get our best players on who didn't have 90 in them. Nearly worked.

Problem is we don't have a squad to fall back on to make that many changes and be a competitive team - especially with passengers like Kelly & Godden.

Allen hasn't had any minutes for about 3 months and not long returned to training. What do you expect?

This is fair. And but for the defence doing the indefensible he’d have got a result
