I feel for Simms, he doesnt get the service at all, why we didnt sign another central midfielder in this window baffles me. Saddle is 10000% right that we would regret missing out on Browne, he’s exactly what we need why we didnt just finalise his deal and go after Stamenic as well if we were looking to offload Palmer will forever baffle me. Yes we would have still missed out on Stamenic but we would have Browne

He had two great chances and fucked them up

3 of the back 4 do and BTA needs to come in for Simms for a bit too really. The fact it hasn't happened yet is baffling, if it doesn't happen in the next game he's truly lost the plot.

How anyone. Anyone at all can see that today and not think questions need to be asked are fucking mental

Midfield mon existent, shape a fucking mess and the inability to swap formation when 1 down at home with a plethora of attacking options is infuriating

Robins and his 17 fucking coaches, who BTW, have brought fuck and all to the table so far, need to find a way to play without Sheaf because if he is our for a while we are FUCKED

Yes, first half, though not brilliant, we were the better team and should have been ahead.

Second, they made a couple of tweaks, and whilst never being particularly threatening, nullified us completely, passed around us at will, got a lucky goal and then had a pretty easy win.

We were embarrassingly awful.

Zero positives from that, we look miles off all over the pitch. We're at home, 1-0 down with 40 mins to go and we can't get the ball. We hardly won a second ball all afternoon and had no sustained spell of pressure at any point. A lot of work to do. We can talk about individual quality all you like, bit it looked like men against boys at times.

It depends on how they're being instructed to defend as far as I'm concerned,, nothing wrong attacking wise with Bidwell, exposed again just like his replacement, could and should have kept Burroughs around for me can handle both sides!

Then his response to the question - "why aren't we playing well"

Simms had two chances today and fluffed both, didn't even manage a shot on target.

I think he's instructed not to run the channels so as not to crowd out Wright/Saka and full backs. It's not working though

They added an extra player in the middle and we couldn’t deal with it again. Same as Stoke and Bristol.

Too easy to control games against us at the moment.

Loan window also closed last night. Only hope now is free agents…who will need a couple of months to get up to speed.

This shitshow is entirely on Robins for not strengthening in the o buoys area and for continuing to persist with players who are not up to the primary objective of their role

Not wanting Mark out but questions have to be asked. Wonder how long Mark can carry on and how long we can have no club playing culture as I don’t know what we’re even trying to achieve. I’ll be proven wrong no doubt but just grumbling today

By far our best defenders. I don't know if he's just trying to get an understanding with Lati and Binks or punishing Thomas and Kitching for the end of last season but whatever it is he needs to stop and put the best pairing we have back in.

I mentioned that other day that I doubt he’s happy with the situation but got shot down because we used to rely on free transfers at some point 8-10 years ago.

CWR callers also questioning the departure of Adi and MR's job security - despite having so much credit in the bank, heads will ultimately roll
