still out fucking clueless

We were crying out for an experienced manager. Someone like a cooper, wilder, Dyche or even a big Sam. Someone to toughen us up. Strengthen the spine, do the basics and make us a team again. Instead we went for yet another hipster appointment. Absolute joke of a club.

Another fantastic appointment from Sports Republic Thanks guys

None of them show for it None of them run with the ball Can’t shoot Can’t defend Embarrassing

This is what’s concerning, they were absolutely terrible and I’m not just saying that because it’s them. Shocking side and we made them look brilliant. Same as today

Yes. These performances are extremely concerning. I really want to like Still and give him a chance but what the fuck is going on?

Downs might be the worst striker we’ve ever signed, and that’s a really shocking thing to say. He has the touch of Carrillo, the finishing of onuachu and the strength of Mara. With the football intelligence of Ali dia

Downs is one of the worst players I’ve ever seen why the fuck did he do that? It was our corner

We genuinely look like relegation candidates and not promotion hopefuls so far. Haha

Bazunu is chronic why oh why are we persisting with him?

Having a big lad up top makes more sense with this squad. Fraser, Azaz and fellows all good at crossing the ball

Right then Downs.. show us what the scouts saw in you

Boro looking good again. Second goal was fantastic. To be honest.. both these teams look better than us. Bit worrying how far behind we are already, not just in points but in performances.

If he’s been truly ill and having long-term problems then that would explain his drop off in form and I feel bad for him. Not his fault and I hope he’s ok.

Honestly, if the plan is to buy wingers and cross, we should have kept tall paul as well? Yes he was shite but he would fit the style more than Archer Nothing SR do ever seems to make sense

Bollocks. They time wasted from minute one, fouling and diving the whole game. This was their cup final and they won it 0-0.

Paddy Power Russell Martin Fan denial 😂😂😂😂

Simply not true at all, based on the evidence. im yet to see either of these win an aerial duel and play in a winger. Che for all his faults was quite creative and good at getting us up the park. The point isn’t about keeping Che really, it’s about our shit recruitment and lack of a strategy.

I really hope Sport republic are looking at this and realising how lucky they are that our fans are so easy going.

This ^. We’d have been better off keeping Che to be honest. I thought it at the time. He was limited but at least he was good at holding up the ball and bringing others into play. We let him go and haven’t replaced him. Now we have no focal point so the ball never sticks. Add on top our non-existent midfield and the ball just comes back at us in waves. Even against shite teams like Pompey. (Who were fucking shite btw. Just ran a lot.)

Agree with most of the above, this is a pretty big game for us now. This is the only full week Still will have with them on the training ground. After that it will be a game every few days. So we really need to see him working out his best team and getting them into shape. Need a good performance here.

In fairness, Still was fucking fuming with the first half and kept trying to tell them to get out, but nothing changed. It was bad, and his subs came too late imo, but I do believe he sees the same things we see - which is a change from the last few managers at least. The question is what can he do about it

Absolutely no one at the ground was giving Azaz stick. Maybe his movement was more noticeable in person. He was nowhere near the worst player today.

Harsh to single him out in what was a shit team performance I thought you can tell he has quality. Good touch and made some good runs. Not much came off for him today but it’s his first home start ffs. Absolutely no need to slate him already

I was sat near the dug out. Their manager was a total cock all game. Moaning about everything. Just all round wanker of a bloke
