    FFS x 2!!!

    End of cup appearances. Shocking team selection.

    Team moral dropping like a stone.

    Come back Colin and Sol.

    On another day we could be 3 up.

    A hitch potch of a defence.

    More evidence City need a dominant keeper.

    I don't know how many fans made the trip - not many probably - but the team selection showed a shocking lack of respect.

    I see Joel Colwill is on for Calamity Benjamin. We no longer have any recognised centre backs on the pitch..

    Is jck now in charge of team selection?

    Not sure how we haven’t scored - Ashford the latest to miss a decent chance.

    Hope a club takes Robinson off our hands this month.

    Looks like the second half was a bit better but I'm not sure how Bulut will motivate players for the Leeds game.

    The return of Ramsey and O'Dowda plus new better quality signings needed. But how does Bulut persuade better players to come after that awful display?

    Add Benjamin to the list of much needed disposals.

    Another day we score a few. Nice to see Ashford and Evans. Tanner and Colwill outstanding, Robinson out of sorts but plenty of good touches with Bowler not afraid to take on two players. We had to play without our usual back four and then Alnick has a bad game.

    As far as I’m concerned even with a rag tag team we created enough decent openings, 7-8 but didn’t have that quality to convert (2 spot kicks aside) whereas SW scored from long range, one due to our midget keeper and a soft late goal. On another day we win that game.

    What is clear is the second string bench warmers need to go and in particular Robinson who’s gone downhill.

    The squad needs as BfB states some decent players pronto.

    Well I was watching that live on ESPN and despite the poor missed penalties, Robinson and Benjamin, I thought those sent out there were playing pretty well.

    It was an odd kick off time for us, and interfered with normal Saturday domestic protocol.

    At half time and 3-0 down, I was given the choice of watching the second half live, or steak and chips in the dining room - I chose the steak.

    Bakasetas is the key player, would be like have Goutas in midfield. Moore played for Wigan and they got relegated. Look if you want to score goals then Ugbo plays. WE have a striker in who can`t score and no one complains about him.

    Ugbo couldn't put in a shift if he was paid by the hour. If they did a time and motion study on him it wouldn't work due to his lack of motion.

    I have asked for Meitie`s minutes to goal ratio compared to Ugbo`s and I posted stats for players who started 90 minutes and Ugbo came top and Meitie came bottom.
