This is up there with Forest at home. 

We could stay out there with the grounds crew and still not score. 

To stay up you need goals. We don't have any at all in our side. 

A bit of an over exaggeration don’t you think? We’ve dominated the ball and played in their half for most of the second half. End product remains lacking but we’re not looking dead and buried or fragile as fuck like we used to

Admas gets the ball centrally. He looks for that central, direct pass. But we've got Big Paul on now, so Big Paul isn;t zippy enough and is too deep for that. So he passes it out. There's another pass on wide. But we dither, so when it gets out there, there's no space to run into. The ball does come across. But fails to beat the first man. Another game with an endless succession of little errors.

Fair enough but same end result, no goals, no points, no clue...

Just feel none of our players really working hard enough. Taking the game by the scruff of the neck. Wanting to win. It's all just so pedestrian. 

Agree with this. If we were mid table or the team winning  1-0 it’s fine to be composed and controlled. We’re not.

One shot on target in a crucial game is pretty damning.

Had that gone in, which it should, this half would have been very different. 
 

we’d probably have gone on to win tbh.

I’ll say it again, but could Ballard do any worse than our piss poor ‘strikers’ ? He at least seems to know where the goal is which helps somewhat 

I doubt he'd cope with the physicality.

There's just no plan of attack. Alcaraz and KWP going off robbed us of the two most likely outlets. We're left with players who won't or can't drive the game, and lack the skill to get it into dangerous positions.
