    Wow. Just Wow.

    Looked for a couple of minutes it might be a good game. Well, I suppose it was for the neutral...

    I think most have touched on what went wrong tonight but personally I think that is irrelevant. It's what has been gradually happening the last few weeks that worries me. Ralph has sounded less confident and less convincing in his analysis. Most of players have forgotten how to tackle and now run around like springer spaniels - they fly by sticking out a foot in the hope that they can nick the ball and then just run off and let someone else do the same thing. Either that or they stand off the player hoping to put them off actually passing the ball. Neither works. As a result the confidence has just drained out of them.

    Not sure where we go from here. Sacking is not the answer just yet (esp. when BFS is being talked about...) but 'resting' Valery, JWP and Gunn might be a start.

    Definitely missing his #2 and he ain’t coming back so this might be it, I’m afraid.

    Nor do I normally, I'm not normally known for outbursts at matches but tonight, oh tonight, pushed me over the edge.

    If I see any of those players in the team any time soon, it'll be far too soon. They deserve all the **** they get.

    Something has changed and it’s been going that way, since the tail end of last season. Whatever it is, needs sorting PDQ.

    The whole structure of the club is a mess.

    Funnily enough though; 4x 2nd half goals, numerous subs but only 2mins time added!? Hum, me thinks someone’s not being Kosha here. #whenitsuits

    Doubt it. He doesn't seem to have much of an interest beyond getting money out of the club once in a while.
