It gave Gillingham the chance to try out 5 of their second squad and find out they are actually quite good players.

Oops!

Out of interest do we know whether Gillingham played a full strength side? I sincerely hope they did.

I think he probably already knew - his mistake was picking so many of them tonight.

On Friday our stock was rising, now it's being laughed at.

Which is why we should have signed a new number one keeper instead of bloody Lumley - bad mistake.

He certainly won't be on the pitch giving the three chest thumps a la Klopp 🙂

He needs to have more respect for the fans especially those who travelled, I refuse to believe he doesn't care - if that is the case it's a terrible attitude so I'm giving him the benefit of doubt on this one - I think he's caught a massive cold and hopefully will learn from it. Travelling fans especially have been hung out to dry after shelling out good money and going in good faith.

Martin does need to own most of this. A narrow loss could have been accepted but this is a humiliation and will do a lot of damage to morale and confidence. I fear he has gravely underestimated the opposition so that's a mark against his name very early in his tenure I'm afraid.

Total bullshit.

Maybe because we've gone about it in the wrong way - we should be looking for a new number one so that McCarthy becomes our new number three. We are weakening rather than strengthening in a very key position and I believe we'll live to regret it.

I'd be delighted if we got McAtee but just can't see it happening unless Jason Wilcox has some influence.

Think he'd be fine at this level.

Maybe that's the idea - make us grateful to have Baz in goal because the alternatives don't bear thinking about 🙂

From what I saw it was a slight scare but we were never in any danger - Baz got to the ball ahead of their player. Can't deny though it was far too sloppy at that stage of the game.

I notice us and Millwall were the only two sides to win away from home.

He scored a lot of his goals for Blackburn by making runs into the channels. We've never used him that way which is why we've never seen the best of him. Poor bloke has been starved of the sort of service he thrives on.

I think if we do sign Matt Grimes that will help AA because he's brilliant at pinging very accurate passes into the channels which would give AA the chance to use his pace.

I'd be amazed if Norwich sell him to us in the week before we play them.

Matt Grimes, Max Aarons and Danny Ings please (assuming JWP, Lavia and KWP go).

Grimes would be an amazing signing and would add a new dimension to our game. He would provide the longer passes to go with our short ones because he has a left foot like a wand. Very talented player.

Watford battering QPR.

He could be the perfect replacement for KWP. Quick, good going forward and in recovery and can play on both sides.

Was he even at the game or is he just a complete idiot?

He has what it takes but there are huge question marks over his attitude and fitness. If we could get him fit and hungry to play he could potentially be brilliant for us but is it a gamble worth taking.
