    Let's just hope we bounce back at the weekend. Will be a tough game with the crowd right up for it. But it is our first away game of the season. We can actually score away!

    1 goal from open play against Swansea, West Ham and Wolves at home. Same old story.

    And that's fine. He probably needs to feel that and experience these nights to improve what he does over here.

    He must be injured, as he's the kind of player we need at times. Heart on sleeve and isn't afraid to try and rally the troops.

    Sounds like a bit of a failed experiment. Hard to say much without having seen the game but the comments about attacking, stopping and turning around sound unpleasantly familiar.

    Whenever I listen to a cup match on the radio we always lose and perform badly. Maybe I should stop.

    Mauled by wolves

    Better than being torn apart by terriers.

    Let's get it right for Saturday.

    We played poor tonight. But I only call for one player to be dropped. Forster needs to be benched.

    The fact that it has come whilst the window is still open is the one shining light. Every little helps (even if I'd rather we were winning) in terms of signing an attacker or two. As solid as the window has been so far, I can't accept that it has been a good one until our attack is bettered. And ideally not with a Gaston or Boufal this time.

    What makes me laugh is I can honestly say I've never heard of any of those Wolves players that started the game.

    Win at the weekend and all will be rosy before the stupidly timed international break. I'm sure we will.

    Omfg. We are getting relegated. It's been coming for years. You don't go selling players like Jay Rod and hope you can scrape through.

    I actually think we are going to under score Derby from 2009/10.

    Is anyone out there who can stop my knee from jerking? Please help if you can.

    Thanks.

    Weren't too many boos. I blame the manager for that performance, it was clear from the start that the formation was awful. We had no industry in midfield, no width at all and essentially set up to lose.

    Positives are hopefully we learn from this, as we do have some great players. Although they didn't show it tonight. Don't remember us having a shot second half. JWPs worst ever performance I think.
