    Speechless here. How can you go 2 up at home and then hide? Absolutely shocking that. Wtf did Mowbray say at half time?

    Shocking 2nd half, the key has to be we learn from this and not collapse like this again.

    No doubt they are a class side but shouldnt be conceding 4 goals in a half at home

    Smashed. No stiker to hold the ball and no physical players. Just let them tear arse all second half.

    Probably the same as most of the other managers we’ve had.

    Should have been shot with **** not signing a 3rd striker. We held up well for a few games but these decisions are starting to make us pay week in week out now.

    We won't be able too. Don't have the experience in the team or the physcial players to do it. It's one reason Neil was booting off.

    People will be annoyed at this but he was right. We can not keep signing 5 a side players.

    It's a man's game.

    Lack of a striker was not the problem to-day, but that wont stop the agenda, its too easy.

    Yes they are a good team but that is shocking. Can’t believe what I’ve seen in the second half

    Definitely a good learning curve thing today. With our players back we will be competitive with the best teams in the league. We are close already.

    How can young players not learn from this? That is a ridiculous thing to say. We have quality technical players, we have all enjoyed watching the team play this season but we will have off games/halves - every team does.

    We are missing Ballard and Stewart who are 2 huge players for us

    No disgrace in loosing that, but it was avoidable at HT imo.

    We have struggled to kill teams off for weeks, plenty of great performances have not been rewarded with the points because we have not been able to put it in the net. Not just about today but the writing seems to have been on the wall once they got one back. Seems it’s been men against boys.

    Wish the 'need a striker' crew would **** off. Especially knowing people's tempers will be short having blown a 2-0 lead at home.

    What signs did you see, Clocky, that we needed changes at HT?
