    Least Amad can hit the ball clean. Gelhardt had been a terrible loan.

    Their physicality is dominating we haven't really got our game going. Not many (decent/any) shots on target.

    I can't remember Gelhardt having a touch tbh.

    Looks like big fish in a small pond syndrome to me.

    He's not a number 9 - a job that he's been asked to do!

    Prehab your usually a good poster but when we're getting beat your patter is ****ing ****e mate. I notice you never come up with this stuff when we don't get beat!

    Do we risk 3 at back to accommodate an extra winger? It’s getting towards **** or bust anyway.

    I must confess for all we are saying Gelhardt was bought to play off Stewart, I don’t think he ever would have. He’d have had cameo appearances off the bench at best. He wasn’t getting in ahead of Clarke, Amad, Roberts or Pritchard

    The lad is a 110% trier, but not a natural goal scorer, unfortunately.

    Its not his fault Stewart and Simms not around, playing off a big lad mayhave been a different story.

    He has tried hard, he simply isn’t enough of a presence.

    He will have a decent mid table championship career, not as a striker.

    He is a striker who is from a PL academy. He has been a poor loan who worked hard. He doesn't hit the ball clean, his goal scoring here is worse than Amad Clarke and Roberts.

    yeh this. It’s why I feel sorry for him. He’s not good enough but that isn’t his fault.

    For what it's worth. Your opinions may not be popular but you have as much right to air yours as everyone else

    Honestly think hes turned into the worst poster on match day threads. Only comments when we lose games. Slags the recruitment loads yet its the recruitment team that has brought all this quality to us

    God he wanted us to sign chris martin!!!!

    Anyway hes on the ignore list, cba with people taking over great threads

    No. We’ve been off it. Players look intimidated and showing their age. I also think Luton have been very very good at what they do (which we won’t give them enough credit for because it’s ugly as ****)

    Not really. After the season we've had and the hurdles we've overcome, I'm more pissed off tonight than any other game

    Clarke ran the width of the pitch there and nobody offered him an option moving forwards.

    We've completely frozen here.

    Hume and Ekwah have been our best two players. Future is so so bright for them.

    Roberts also very good in flashes. O’Nien doing ok as well.

    The rest have unfortunately wilted. Which they’re kinda due doing
