We're doing OK, but I'm not sure we've been as good as some are suggesting. Not created a chance of note since the header which was early in the game. Some awful decision making in the final 3rd again. We look pretty toothless, but seeing plenty of the ball and still very much in this.

Anyone still defending shipley needs to commit to the caludon centre. Worst championship player we've had since Neil Wood

You could buy Osti and O'Hare an evening in the local whorehouse and they'd manage to end up in the warehouse next door all night.

When Gyökeres comes back to get the ball. No one pushes forward. So we end with no one in attack. Need one of the attacking mids to slot in where Gyökeres should be.

We’re let down by a lack of attacking emphasis in the final third, again. Our defence has looked vulnerable at times, but their attacking threat is impressive and are always going to cause issues.

James and Hamer is a very strong two, but the two in front of them are letting them down, either by being anonymous or just poor. New striker looks good, but isolated and not in the game enough.

I would go two up front, they look an average team other outside of their attackers, let’s try and put them under pressure.

Promising signs from the first half, just need a tweak in that final third.

Your honour I rest my case.

I’m not backing him but he’s not been as poor as the last game I watched him. We have played really well away to the team in 6th and are unlucky to be behind in my opinion

Bapaga for Shipley I reckon. There’s a massive AM sized hole where Shipley should be every time we attack down the left.
Click to expand...

Yeah, Bapaga would be a decent option. Would like to see what he could do when he gets more than a few minutes.

We played much much better vs milwall

I am consistently in match threads saying we are playing well and today is no different but fuck me stop acting like it's been one of our best performances because it hasn't been.

The replay of O’Hares chance is so bad. Basically passes it back to the keeper.

Ostigard jumped too high for his.

A decent first half we should have scored first but after they've scored we've created nothing really.

Our new forward looks very ordinary so far but tbf has had virtually no service and little support....he's no Lucas Diou mind!

Our defence looks very shaky - how did Osti miss that free header from six yards and he arguably escaped a pen on Diou.
hyam very poor defensively for the goal and Fadz looks clumsy with a bad error in him tonight.

Hamer & James looked decent - Dabo very good half - McCallumn has the short straw compared to oppo then Dabo on his side but has done well overall - O'Hare started well but faded a bit Shipley like new forward not massively involved in the game.

Difficult to know what we can do barring a set piece and on corners we've looked ordinary I cannot see us scoring unless we chuck on another forward - Max for Shipley looks an option on 60 minutes or even Baka - Bapaga for O'Hare on 75 mins?

They look very good and dangerous going forward!

Nobody would get an assist if we couldn’t stretch play and ended up spending 90 minutes in our own half.

I don't think we're far off the likes of Reading. We just need to be more clinical. That's what's holding us back from being a really decent team. I don't think it's so much strikers as it's the 2 just behind.

We are the better team but they have the better players. Felt this a more than a few times this season,.

Hamer and James will be quality, keep adding this level of player and it won't take much to push on

All we need is some attacking prowess and we will be fine this season. It's time for Robins to find a solution to our woes.

So let me just get this right.
O’hare misses a sitter for about the tenth time this season, Ostigard missed a sitter and Hyam loses his man to concede but its Shipleys fault we are losing.

this place wouldnt be the same without a player to label as shit

Some of the football we’ve played has been the best I’ve seen this season. However it’s always about being clinical in your own and opponents boxes that makes success. I accept that completely

More open play key passes than anyone else in the squad I think.
