    I'm resigned to the play-offs and will be at the next three games.

    Let's get Keane announced, draw a line under playing PL style in L1 and go for wins in every game.

    No one can tell me the whole team went for a win at all costs today.

    Second half was better but all the damage was done in the first half.
    We had enough chances to win it but nothing went our way - looks like we had a good goal chalked off too
    Too cautious with the starting line up. Clarke looked good - he should have started.

    Only you.

    Anyways, how come you're straight on here when we lose but not when we win ...

    ... is it some kind of agenda or just a wild coincidence.

    Morecambe and Bolton game has been suspended because of 'unsavoury chants from the crowd'

    If things don't change the only way out of this league is relegation.

    Ah ok, I've seen they're into +14. A couple of other games went to plus 8, 9 and 10 - just not seen that before.

    I was being sarcastic.
    He didn’t put out the same team as last week. This was a worse 11, esp. given what was available to him.

    Any pretence of caution should be abandoned on Tuesday ....

    .... go for three points from kick off, if we fail at least the crowd will know we gave it absolutely everything.

    Can't say that today <doh>

    Just watching the "highlights" on the post batch with Frankie and Danny and when it's going tits up, there's no one going absolutely ape **** with players. Where's these supposedly " leaders" on the pitch?

    Utter utter f*cking w*nk. New signings should have been on from the beginning.

    Absolutely. Second half was an improvement but, by definition, too little too late. First half was dire, no idea how that was allowed to happen. There's enough there that top 6 should be easy and automatic the aim but the last two games have been a gut punch to that. Hoping he grabs the players by the scruff of the neck, possibly literally.
