It’s not my site and I haven’t lived in London since 1991.

When you click on a posters name it brings up four options, profile page, start a conversation, follow and ignore. You want the last one. <ok>

Hull City boss Liam Rosenior told BBC Radio Hunberside:

"To lose the game in the final minute, they're always the hardest ones to take, but for me there are a lot of good aspects to our play and there was a lot we need to eradicate from our game.

"There were two very good footballing teams. They're two teams I see challenging at the top end of the table, but we won't unless we learn as a group.

"The two goals we gave away were really. really poor today and in the Championship if you give poor goals away, no matter how good your play is, you're there to win, and that's what cost us today."

Southampton manager Russell Martin told BBC Radio Solent:

"It's a huge win for us playing against a very good team.

"First half we were okay. It wasn't a poor performance at all. but out of possession there was not enough aggression or intensity, so we tweaked that a little bit at half-time which really helped us.

"The second half I thought we were outstanding and I thought we got better as the game went on. Really dominant, really aggressive without the ball, the players fought so hard.

"I really loved the energy in the second half. There was a big difference in the energy from first to second. It was a little bit safe and lacking that edge, but in the second half we brought that to the party, thankfully, and we won."

Shots don’t tell the whole story. We had the best goal mouth scramble in the second half, that probably didn’t register as a shot. A couple of times Vinagre got into the box and made the wrong choice - simple cut back both times was required. I’m sure we would have had a shot.

I can think of 4 or 5 moments a shot could have come off where we passed it around or took a touch too many. It's an odd habit for delap to take a touch too many given he has quite a powerful strike on him

I'm only like this on here because I'm not generally in real life. So if something is bothering me I tend to vent to strangers online rather then people I know as I don't want them thinking I'm a miserable ****.

I'll try to reign it in a bit.

And I'd move back to Hull in a heartbeat but sort of got stuck over here after uni with work, partner etc. Maybe when I retire in 30 or 40 years she might be persuaded

Many comments about our attacking failings ( poor decision making, not shooting, little creativity, not clinical, etc).. I also see time and time again aimless hopeful crosses, often to no one in particular, and no pattern, no apparent plan. All same as last season.
Compare and contrast to say Ipswich, a team who individually are no better than us but collectively were on a different level? Why?
It's not the players. It's the way they've been coached and drilled so they know what to do in those positions, so they know where team mates will be. They have a pattern, a plan. Several times their winger hits the by line then, instead of aimless crosses they and the team are drilled for the pull back to the oncoming team mate.
It's not the odd defensive mistake that's losing us points, although that of course doesn't help. It's not the players. It's the coaching.
The evidence week after week, month after month is compelling. But it's easy to blame the odd slip , bad luck or the players. Gets tiring.

Lets look at the bigger picture. Someone closer to the club will know this better than me. LR is the Head Coach/Manager but under him there are other coaches, Andy Dawson being one and a goalkeeping coach. Who are they and what is their experience?? Strikes me, that LR could do with someone who's on his side that has experience and nous, I don't know that those working under him have credibility and experience either...

I’ve no issue with people getting pissed off with things and pointing those things out, something that’s clearly going to happen after losing to a last minute goal.

But constant negativity I’ve no time for, life’s too short.

You're entitled to your opinion like everyone else here. If you get called for it, roll with it.

Same number of clean sheets as Wednesday. Let’s not act like we’ve made progress, Allsop, Ingram and Darlow have papered over the cracks. We are not a good side, we are absolutely bang average. Squad had very clear issues that have not been addressed. Manager persists with playing players out of position off the bench. This system has us missing players like Slater who are just bang average for this division

After coming on for them today, I see Wednesday fans are tonight discussing whether Malik Wilks is their worst player ever <laugh>

I love this club with a passion and want the absolute best for it, as we all do. I don't personally see that happening under the current manager I'm afraid and can't pretend that I do. I hope I'm proven completely wrong of course

Sorry but if you’ve been playing professionally for as long as they have you should have the football intelligence to do the right thing , you’d have been told that for years . Maybe the coach has to remind you but if you’ve not made the top it’s because you’ve not taken it in sooner - hence championship level

They were warned when they were giving it all that when they "signed" him (or rather when we happily drove him there and quickly shut the car door and drove off once he was out)
