If we end up in the playoffs these players have neither the balls or fight to win them

Lads, we're in a scrap for the Autos. If you'd been offered that in July you'd have been all over it. Let's keep turning up and keep showing some fight. If we expect the club to show some guts don't we owe the same? or are we just gonna feel sorry for ourselves and fight in the corner like some wet wipes were at full time.

And an absolute liability defensively. If he had joined us when we were flying I think he'd have been amazing. He still gives us a chance in games with moments but we're relying on them way too much.

Just back from the game… uninspiring, unconfident and boring football at its finest. Think we attempted to attack and attack properly for about 7/8mins of the game otherwise popping it around sideways & backwards. The football has gone backwards since Middlesbrough away & is now in a place that resembles Robins as he left & Lampard when he first took over.

Unfortunately I can only see us being steamrolled by Boro next week, it was nice while it lasted.

Yeah, but we won 2 out of 3, not 2 out of the last 3, 2 out of the 3 before that!

Apparently Bobby and Kitch are the Messiah's. Esse is not a winger. We need 2 strikers, whether that means playing Wright or Assante on the left

We're in relegation form now though and people are entitled to be concerned about that. There were hints that we were going to "go big" in January and what did we do?

1 prem loanee who looks like he's just come for a piss about
1 prem loanee who is clearly not ready for this level
1 signing made at the end of the window who doesn't even make his debut in the next game
1 signing of a player who isn't match fit

Lampard is now chopping and changing the team every week a bit like Robins was before he was sacked. I am very concerned after the last 3 games, on current form we will limp to the play offs.

He's capable of magic but also overplaying things.. Its like a more frustrating Peter Ndlovu on a off day.

When Oxford had a player sent off, I thought it was very sporting of us to bring Simms on so we could play with ten men as well

I mean, the table speaks for itself at the moment: from 1st to 5th, the gap is a meagre 6 points. That’s all.

We will soon be toppled, at this current rate of form. We are not playing like champions of the worlds best second tier, and to be honest, I’m just mentally preparing myself for the inevitable shit show of meeting Wrexham in the playoffs.

It’s just bound to happen.

TBF if a couple of those headers fell to Simms he might have got them on target.

Yes a couple of decent flick ons but our players are too thick to around / beyond him to benefit

Yes, can't see anything other than a comfortable Boro win.

However, if we manage to be them (and that's a massive if at the moment), surely it gives us a massive boost.

It’s amazing how people manage to try and isolate games, even more funny when they don’t notice the weekly pattern.

That should leave any manager in our position at risk of losing their job. That's a quarter of a season. Needs to turn things round quickly.
