To peruse the threads waiting for your chance to have a go at Palmer or Da Silva is boring

Favourite part of the game so far…Simms barging their defender over.

They've played some decent football tonight, passed it around us with ease.

When the midfield is weakened we are screwed. Was similar last season but Vik could create his own chances

Reminds me a bit of the Luton horrors we used to have - Preston got at us early and it seems to have shaken us for the entire game.

We are back to how the 21/22 season unraveled, giving away alarmingly poor goals with regularity and conceding first more often than not.

You say they got at us but every goal was just soft. They didn’t need to break sweat. I will be honest what sealed it for me was being that close to seeing Sakamoto in agony on the floor. Referee of course couldn’t give a fuck.

Surprise? Should have been expected.

We need to beat WBA next game or our season is more or less over.

The result is one thing but losing a player like Sakamoto and the mental toll the reaction from the fans is worse. Some in that side will crumble.

That second half was pathetic. Looked like a training ground exercise for Preston.

Good for them, if you're a goal up away from home from the first minute that's absolutely what you should do

I think it’s pretty obvious that we haven’t got the squad depth to go the distance. If Sakamoto’s injury is as serious as it looked then it’s season over for me. We just cant rely on palmer to consistently deliver enough quality

The season’s hopes went off on a stretcher first half.

The only good thing that can come out of this game is that Torp is back. Other than that anything that could go wrong did go wrong.

It was poor from the beginning. I wonder how different it might have been had it not been for the early goal. The gameplan changes and we are stretched straight away. Nobody played well tonight really. Simms and Milan probably the most promising. These games happen sometimes to every team. To go on about individuals and say how shit we are and that the season is over seems stupid though. We always lose against these and it wasn't a huge shock. We probably won't go up this season but not because of tonight.

The usual voices on here losing their tiny minds when we have a bad game. Do they ever learn? Same reactive bullshit. We have been on a great run for months one loss doesn't signal the end of the world.

We have had similarly shite results before and bounced back.

My mind boggles at how people still don't trust the manager or players

Pathetic performance from start to finish. There just seemed to be a lack of effort. Did any of them even care? Liam Kelly man of the match.

That is an opinion. He has played well in many games, but not tonight.

I’ve seen trained parakeets play better football than us tonight. Doesn’t change the fact they were fouling diving and timeqasting all game.

Why would a press take us by surprise? And Preston didn't have a bit of luck. We were shite from the off.,
