    I’ve just liked your post - but I don’t really! I mean I like your post but not the content, if you see what I mean. I just wish it weren’t true.

    He did say that he needs to pick the right players, which you can infer as he didn't today.

    That press release pissed me off more. Full of bullshit.

    Looks weak and broken. Done here.

    Agree with all of us, although I think Stewart at least tried, but had no support whatsoever. Agreed about Clarke too, looked very promising.

    Probably give Stewart one. Just because he was purely bumped by the LJ masterclass.

    Why does LJ chop and change how he sets his sides up , I realise Flanagan has made some mistakes in recent games but as a right back playing in a four is he better or worse than Winchester. Cirkin was sacrificed to accommodate Gooch - WHY ? if Gooch tracked back to support Cirkin he wouldn’t be left exposed as much as he was today . LJ seems to think by tinkering he is clever but I think putting square pegs in to round holes never works particularly as our wing backs aren’t reliable in tracking back . The midfield was very poor and laboured and ball retention again was poor today , throwing the new players on as substitutes was a meaningless exercise which exacerbated the poor management which smacked of over confidence. Get back to basics and a system your team understands LJ and quickly ,or hope of promotion will disappear .

    Hate to say it, but playing like we are, hope for promotion is long gone.

    I’ve been on ljs side up to now, but have finally come to realise that he is a one “high-press” donkey who thinks he’s a tactical genius.

    I'm not totally balming the manager, everyone involved was a disgrace and quality at times this season, however there's no consistency. You look at our squad and start to think "What could a Warnock or a Pulis do with these players" because I tell you what, each season we FAIL, they couldn't do much worse. We were on the break in the 1st half and there was Stewart running toward their box accompanied but about 6 Bolton players, what the **** is Ross supposed to do with that?? Sorry everyone but I'm bastard raging tonight.Im normally over a defeat by 6 o'clock, but that was new level of embarrassing. At least we're a topic of conversation on talkSPORT tonight for a change.

    Last few games, especially at the start, the lads have looked out of sorts. Confused by tactics? Over-trained? I don’t know, but something is amiss.

    Awwwww, is he OK? I hope so. Because if not, it will make me getting up for work at half 4 in the morning feeling sad for him. Chin up Lee, we're all in this together, see you at the clock in machine at half 5 in the morning. Prick.

    Loads of trouble with our fans and the police over the bar shutters being closed, battens and flares then all kicked off, many left after 4, you not see out?
