We simply must change the strategy slightly and have an extra body in the defensive middle of the pitch. We are far too wide open ….

We have actually had no central midfield for around 3 or 4 years. It’s coaching and managerial organisation that is causing this not really the players lacking anything individually.

I don’t understand this that I cannot listen online without paying. Working away a lot I can’t access the commentary at all without paying. Which ever league hierarchy decided this in a media deal is nuts because people will just not bother. I am not paying to listen….. Local radio commentary has been a bedrock for maintaining and promoting fans interest over decades - shame…

Totally…. It’s tactical organisation that needs addressing, not JUST personnel. Matting needs to look in the mirror too….

For three years we have been over run in midfield because our coach’s can’t organise a central midfield at all, it’s non existent in fact just clear grass….

It’s more tactical strategy than midfield personnel. We have no one in the middle of the pitch and it is so easy to spot but we insist on repeating the mess of tactical set up.

All good apart from ‘teachers pet’ Adam Armstrong - What on earth ….

It was pretty obvious in pre season that any team who aggressively close us down would probably wreck our only tactic and beat us convincingly. Yes it was a scratch 11 but it is obvious how to play against us.. Close us down and go for set pieces and crosses. Perhaps we should concentrate training on defence before we prioritise anything else…….. It is not all McCarthy it is our totally inept defending that is awful …

Why do people constantly need to preach to everyone else what is in their view morally acceptable? Why do they need to publicly snort out loud how morally superior they are to others, it’s boring and insecure. The way they always need to differentiate between black and white skin is nauseating.

😂😂😂🙄

Bree certainly puts my back up!

MOTM for me was Classie who ran the show and once upon a time he couldn’t get in our team…..Those were the days….

Spot on and I was there. Armstrong runs around chasing shadows and is increasingly unproductive. Che is about 1% better. That team would not get anywhere near promotion. Possession football is one thing and very commendable, however when played at such a very slow pace is so easy to defend. Martin has to train the guys to move the ball far far quicker than this. Honestly standards have dropped a long way in recent seasons.

You must be very easily pleased 😂

You have to be joking! That was largely atrocious today.

This is crap

Christ … Fell asleep three times! Wouldn’t more than fifteen quid to watch that.

Totally agree with that. He is not close to what we need for our ambitions.

Smallbone definitely

Sorry but disagree. Doyle may not have been perfect, however he offered far more than most first half and was intelligent with his anticipation and positioning… Played well second half also but didn’t stand out as we had a much improved team second half.

Can anyone at all explain why Doyle was nowhere near being picked last season?

Afraid to say but , they look infinitely better than us. Here’s an idea, how about running? Just a vague idea, I’ve got no coaching badges…..

Yeah he doesn’t have a football brain, never going to be good enough

Who told our players we are in a compulsory walking football match?

Dire dire football from us.
