It's an ongoing problem. We aren't killing games off, even with 11 men we were in total control and we passed up so many opportunities. We need a more lethal forward. Yeah, they cost money, but if you want to get out the division, you pay for it. We can't rely on midfielders and defenders to win us games.

That Jephcott at Plymouth who weighs in with goals and assists. He’d fit the bill.

Alternatively, there's this young lad called Keane Lewis-Potter on the bench.

Turns out he can score goals, but for some reason he doesn't start. No idea why.

We didn't lose (felt like it) because we went down to 10 men, we drew because we were wasteful on the limited chances we created and because we couldn't defend from a corner.

If you go down to 10 men and get outplayed for an equaliser fair enough, but not from a set piece.

Ah, the old "my argument is bollocks, I'll just pretend I was messing about" tactic.

It only makes one person look like a bellend that one, and, just so you know - it isn't me.

My argument still stands, we went down to 10 men ( first time this season isn't it ) due to a very unlucky slip and a last ditch tackle to take one for the team, up until that we dominated the game and I'm sure would have taken the 3pts. You just can't put anything across without getting angry and sewering....and I wasn't messing either :)

Would you have taken 3rd in the league after at this point in the season if offered it before we kick a ball?

1 win in 7 league games mate.

Yet another game where exactly the same thing has happened - we score, don't take chances to capitalise, **** it up.

Don't even try to act like everything is ****ing rosy.

This squad would be comfortable with a capable manager. SImple as.

Didn't lose 3-1 though as you tipped. Has it ruined your week end ?

The goal we conceded had nothing to do with the red card. It was just ****e defending at a set piece, yet again, one of our weaknesses that we never learn from.

Yeah, I would've taken third at this point at the start of the season. I predicted us to be midtable. That doesn't distract from the fact there are clear issues with the side though, which you seem to be happy to ignore.

I'm not ignoring any of the issues, but no team will ever be perfect and I'd be a hell of a lot more concerned if we didn't create chances etc. Every team in this league will miss chances, every team will have a poor run of form and every team will concede a poor goal or 2.

You said on a post a few mins ago a more capable manager would see us be better etc. So serious question for you, how would a different manager make the players missing the chances suddenly take them? The players are missing them not GM, the way he has us playing and set up is enabling us to create those chances. What's to say a different manager comes in and plays a different way and we create less chances and the players still miss them?

Before today's game we had scored the second most in the league hadn't we? Yes we all want our players to score every single chance that's created and it's highly frustrating for us all when we don't, but unfortunately we live in the real world and we won't take them all.

While I thought we had the edge before the sending off I didn't feel it was particularly a story of missed chances. We didn't create that many clearcut ones. They caused us some problems with being direct all afternoon so the last 15 mins was going to be a scrap even before the sending off. Not a disaster but the overall run of 1 win in 7 is very poor. Still feel we look more like (at best) a play off team rather than top 2 and still need a better centre forward. Liked Whyte and thought that was Malik's most consistent game for some time. Nice to see a right footed right winger and a left footed left winger for a change.

I have no idea, apparently being critical means you aren't a "real fan" now and must want the team you've supported for decades to always lose.

I think it's more to do with the fact you come across as being happy when we don't win, almost like you want to justify your own thoughts on GM and the team etc over us doing well.....
