And let’s be honest, given SR record, we can hardly look forward to the potential January striker signing with any degree of confidence…

I think this lets the board off too lightly. We might be missing a striker but of course there is a manager that could get this squad into the playoffs. There are managers who would kill for some of the players we’ve got.

Nothing to do with the manager? He said publicly he wanted players to play a 4-2-3-1, the board duly signed those players and yet, after one bad performance at Hull, is dead set on sticking with a formation that can’t fit the players we spent most of our budget on. Will Still has no idea how or who he wants to play, he is just throwing shit at a wall and hoping some of it sticks. He is out of his depth.

Let’s be honest, who cares? Feels like this season has already passed us by. We won’t even sniff the play offs without a striker.

If that is the next move I might need to take a break from this shower of sh*t. Should have gotten Lampard in the summer when we had a chance but SR tried to be too clever again.

Surely there comes a point where enough is enough. I’d say we are probably approaching it.

If we lose to Blackburn on Saturday I think he has to go. This can’t continue.

When we had Russell Martin we at least made light work of dog shit mediocre teams at home. With Still went can’t even get more than a draw out of those.

It’s not entirely his fault but Will Still just is not the manager we need in this situation.

We really are unbearably crap. Strap in for a stint of total mediocrity folks.

Archer is so poor. He does nothing in open play except sit on the shoulder waiting for a ball through and, as we know, when he gets those he can’t finish.

Another miss. For fuck sake.

Still, at least we spent a collective £22m on Azaz and Fellows so they could sit on the bench, despite us being told how “essential” they were to Will Still being able to play the way he wants…

Everyone knew it was a massive issue but the Club was messaging from extremely early on that they (including Still) were “comfortable” with the options we have. Every single year of their ownership SR have left us short up front. Every single year.

He really can be much worse tbf…

If Still was happy with these striking options then he is to blame too. His style seems to rely on having some physicality up top. No way to achieve that with a pub player in Downs and Stewart who is made of glass.

How we managed to sign a worse striker than Adam Armstrong for our Premier League season is genuinely mind blowing.

Archer you useless turd. If he cant finish those then what’s the point of him…

Just not good enough. Will be a long season.

Last 10-15 mins has been a lot better. First 20 was turgid.

Arma should score again.

OK Scienza is class.

I’m sorry but any half decent striker buries that.

Nice one Archer 🤦‍♂️

This is really bad. We have nothing going forward at all.
