I actually don’t think they are that impressive either. We’re just lacking any attacking impetus, energy and too many hiding and/or tired.

They have the freedom of the pitch.

Fucking hate performances like this, just zero effort or seemingly a care from the players. It’s your job and you have the motivation of making the play offs.

We go from a game full of concentration and commitment on Saturday to just mentally weak tonight.

The difference is, all the other times MR had sod all to spend. Big spending this year and we still end up unable to rotate beyond putting Palmer and Torp on the bench

We haven't played at all well, but doesn't it just feel like one of those nights when everything goes wrong.

Player slips as he is taking a penalty and double kicks it, then a wicked deflection to put them 1 up.

Just seems like it is not our night

Latibeaudiere, Sheaf, and Collins have been dreadful. Wright and the centre backs not much better.

Don't care who comes on, but we need some changes, and we need something from this game. The effort so far has been weak as piss. It's really dissapointing given how important this fixture is that we don't look particularly up for it as things stand.

The lack of consistency is just so infuriating. Just can’t seem to string a decent run of performances together.

Nice movement from Simms we could have had two here and we conceded soft goals.

Pathetic

No energy or passion.

Make all 5 subs at half time

Yeah. Southampton have been really poor recently. We've made them look world beaters.

Tbf its looking like we would need 77-78 points just to make the play offs, I'd still back us to beat last seasons point total from this point.

That looked a pen.

Need some changes at half time, Lati has been terrorised, OHare anonymous,

We would be better off going long to Simms like we did against Leeds.

Because the squad is young and small. Really it’s a pity Wright didn’t do what Sargent did

Its been a good season but its clear by this performance we are just not ready to be considered as a contender for promotion. Step too far.

You don’t beat wolves Leicester and Leeds if you’re not a good side

We need 22 championship players though

Need to see some fight second half, everyone ball watching, no speed on the counter either.

Dropped 10 points against the 2 Welsh teams who are both fairly poor.

Equally we’ve got 4 points from Leeds, 6 from Boro. We just needed more depth-again.
