Good comments by Stokes
It wasn’t all that bad Saturday, we have looked at the positives on the DVD and we were back to how we play, controlling the game and had opportunities.Unfortunately we didn’t take them and they got a last minute pen.
We need to be winning games and can’t be looking at draws now
Sometimes maybe we push a bit too hard at home but we just need to be winning games now.
Maybe we’ll be more cagey away tomorrow night and hopefully nick a result.
The season is miles from over and lots of points to play for.
We need to forget what’s happened in the past.
It shouldn't be forgotten, it should be learnt from.
Agree!
And the comments I have seen from posters about loan players not caring I don't agree with
At the end of the day they are professional footballers.
I can understand it to some degree about not caring if we were mid table and going no where but these players have a chance to get a promotion on their CV and a chance to play in front of the cameras in front of 70,000+ fans at Wembley!
Its a boy hood dream for any young boy! If that is not a motivation for anyone of them players, then I am sorry they should not be playing
Why do you always put a positive spin on things?
Don't think I agree, we didn't get any real decent chances apart from the offside ones.
Interesting that Mogga is saying since Kent departing the 'clique' the attacking players had in training and in games has gone.
I think we saw a bit of the creativity on Saturday that we have been missing for so long. We were a passing team that ripped defences apart by playing intelligent through balls. The movement, passing, and interchange was strong.
Whist the final product wasn't quite there, I could see the difference Lameiras bought to the team on Saturday, he did some really good passes and was unfairly rated in my opinion. We just haven't seen anywhere near as much creativeness recently, or in fact I think since nearer to the start of the season.
I thought we played better against Rochdale than we did Fleetwood and Barnsley.

"There was a little gang of talented footballers who used to eat together and do extra training together and they drove each other on.
We haven’t got that three-pronged attack now.
The balance between artists and soldiers is proving a little bit difficult at the moment but I’m sure that win is just around the corner.”
Worrying comments from TM. Sounds like things aren't happy in the camp. One players going shouldn't have that much impact.
Stokes' comments are simply to those Mowbray made after the match. Its worrying if they believe they are performing and just need a touch of luck. They're been terrible and if they don't realise that are they doing anything to change it?
I am more worried they are hoping they can "nick" a win, just shows their confidence.
Kent going ? We had and still have the chance to replace him and for some reason chose not to. I am not saying we miss Kent the player but his blinding pace on the right stretched opposing defenders and gave our midfield outlets to pass to and i'm sorry TM still needs to explain why new comers Hunt, Rose, Henderson, Lorenzen and Bigiriamma have hardly featured despite our woeful performances lately.
So it's the players being realistic that you are complaining about? I honestly believe a hard-fought scrappy win is what we need to get back on track. Not a 6-0 thrashing.
Don't agree at all about controlling the game either. I thought Rochdale controlled the game for the most part.Don't think I agree, we didn't get any real decent chances apart from the offside ones.

It's interesting, but I just don't buy it.
The addition of Kent (and Murphy) haemorrhaged our passing game that was so fluent between the modest trio of Lameiras, Maddison, and JOB. They were always working hard for each other, and had a lot of intelligence which was used to cut through defences.
The clique they had was ultimately the strong one, which was then substituted for blind pace, which actually barely ever came off, and I don't think we were as good a team since.
These comments would indicate that Mowbray's looking for a scapegoat, and it sounds desperate. Not good.
You talk bollocks.
Lameiras - Maddison - O'Brien
Armstrong
This worked. He really didn't need to change it.
they played three games together until Maddison got injured at Walsall!
That's right, but could you imagine beating Wigan and Millwall now?
Once Maddison returned, it could have carried on. He however dropped Lameiras (and JOB).
I would have liked to see those three again.
Come at me with some counter arguments towards what I've said and then maybe I'll take you seriously.
