Lyanco is a fucking idiot. No surprise Jones likes him though, he strikes as me one who loves ‘passion’. Don’t get me started on that skate Bazunu. 

This is awful. Heading one way and at this rate it’ll be in 20th. 

Will you be moaning about there being "No loyalty in football" if he picks up his form and leaves for a bigger club at a knockdown price?

Oh, how I miss Fraser Forster.

Why we let him go to sit on a bench elsewhere rather than be our number one, well, looks like it’s going to be a contributing factor in our demise and seemingly incoming relegation with this garbage between the sticks.

One of our run of winnable games, at home, already looking like zero points.

If you can't have a flashy goalkeeper at least have an effective one, Fraser was clumsy but made a lot of saves you wouldn't expect him to. I reckon we'd be at least 4 or 5 points better off this season with him in goal.

Replace him with McCathy half time

This, and then loan him out to Southend, Crawley, Hartlepool. Or somewhere else in NL or L2. Along with most of the squad. Is there a single starting player who would get into an 18 player BHA squad? Maybe Edozie on the bench and JWP if he can be bothered. Lyanco over DCC or ABK suggests too much festive booze in the coaching and boardroom departments.

I think if I'm honest I would have quite liked a progressive continental approach. My concern with this manager is that he's a bit lower league and basic with hoof ball and unrefined tactics. The start of this game and the last game is confirming that fear so far. I've yet to see any substantial positives and we simply have to get some decent performances and wins in the next few games to give us something to hold onto for the transfer window and to avoid being cut adrift.

Who? Jones? Lyanco? Bazunu? 😂

Not one of those idiots is leaving us for anyone unfortunately.

Edozie dribbling at least gives us the opportunity to get free kicks in a dangerous area. And if not we keep the ball for a few seconds. We don't want to burn him out but he does need to play more when we are so short of decent attacking options.

If this is it, be amazed if Jones is our manager next season.

Fucking awful hoofball....

No wonder Lallana wanted to play the celebration down, there will be a first team manager vacancy available down the A27 and M27 by the summer. Fonte as assistant?

The issue we've now got is far too many key personnel learning on the job. We have a goalkeeper who has never played above league one level, we have a bunch of youngsters early on in this careers, and we have a manager who has never managed this level before. And it's not like Jones built a reputation for modern football and tactics at Luton like say Frank or Rodgers. He looks exactly what you would expect- capable of doing the odd hairdryer treatment, but tactically out of his depth. Which we could get away with maybe if we didn't have a side so desperate for guidance.

Wake up. This experiment was a disaster from the outset. 6 weeks without a game and only 2 players at the World Cup and THIS is the result 😂

2 and a half games

One a decent enough performance at Anfield. The other was a win. Judging Jones already is utterly ridiculous. But no yeah our fans are passionate and patient and always back the manager.
