Sheaf Saint

Been saying this for ages. He's so slow of thought. When the ball comes to him on in the edge of the box and he's decided he's gonna leather it, he's incapable of recognising better options and changing his mind. Same with penalties. He makes up his mind which way he's going, and even if the keeper telegraphs which way he's gonna go, like today, he can't do anything other than what he had already decided to do.

Actually I think the 1/5 that he's scored might stretch back further than the start of this season. I can't be arsed to go through the match reports of every game to check.

Can we please take him off penalties now? 1/5 this season is shocking.

That Stephens > Robinson sub was utterly bizarre. Everyone - literally everyone - assumes that he's decided to switch to a back 4 and get us competing up the pitch more. But then he goes and moves Wellington, who had not long come on for the hopeless Fraser, into CB and sticks with the same shape. I mean - what the actual fuck?

And Manning too. Just jogging about in the box marking nobody, like he does far too often.

Yep. Threw his hand out in desperation and got lucky it hit it.

Just like at Millwall, today perfectly highlights why many of us were deeply concerned about his appointment. When an opposition team susses out our gameplan, he's got no idea how to change things.

Makama basically admitting he cheated in his post match interview. How the fuck can he have the nerve to accept that POTM award? Prick.

I think he was referring to the manager.

I don't. We were awful.

And you were digging me out before KO for questioning if we had enough attacking options on the pitch and bench.

Sorry Tonda but that was a tactical clusterfuck on your part. Please, please, please, for the love of fucking Christ, can we PLEASE ditch this fucking ridiculous defensive formation?

We've managed ONE touch in the Norwich box since they scored their second goal. Maybe we should get some more defenders on.

Commentator: "Talk about game management. Norwich have got this spot on". That's a huge concern, because we have none whatsoever.

In recent games, when we've been defending a lead late in the game, we've seen opposition teams put us under intense pressure trying to equalise. But that's too obvious for us, we're just pissing around at the back instead.

Fumbled it right into the absolute worst possible place. Classic Baz.

What does it say about our captain that he's been replaced by a semi-fit LB? What does it say about Eckert that he cannot bring himself to ditch this fucking awful 3 CBs formation?

Ah, so we should be able to score by defying the laws of physics then, yeah?

Unsurprising considering how dreadful this ref has been so far.

JRob on for Stephens. FINALLY!

So yeah, it was a clear handball. But that doesn't excuse just how fucking inept and shambolic our defending was. Wouldn't it be nice if, just once, a footballer could show the kind of sportsmanship you see in Snooker when a player will self-declare fouls that the ref didn't spot.

Oh for the love of... How the fuck have we conceded that!?

So we are still doing our thing of not turning up for the second half then. Only difference this time being we didn't score any in the first.

The time to do that was in August. Four months and a change of manager later and it's still causing us nothing but problems.

How the fuck did we not clear that first or second time? Awful defending, again.
