    Same old so no point dwelling on it, just hope those that travelled down managed to make a good day of it, one more to go can’t say I’m hopeful but let’s take the shackles off, play lads that will be here next year in their right positions and just see what happens

    This season can get in the bin. Simply cannot believe how we have hit the self destruct. Keep saying it, but huge summer required.

    Need to find the spark that Amad provided last season from somewhere!
    Injuries have killed the season and the managerial changes just haven’t worked in any sense!
    Changes needed no doubt but there’s a good base to build on

    Roberts is shocking. Notice once again all creativity and attacking threat goes from the side once he comes on. It's okay though because he was good last season.

    Bad seasons happen, weve had far far worse than this, but sometimes a bad season can be a good thing if people learn from it

    It sounds like from what youve said previously, what others have said to me and what i know myself that big changes are happening - all for the better of the club as well

    Yes agree on that. Just a shame a season has been binned by pure and utter rank decision making.

    The second half of the season has been completely unacceptable - I am in the optimistic camp but we need a shake up quickly or the malaise will remain

    The drifting of the ship continues. It is poor to watch.

    I really do fear this form rolls over into next season. A very naieve decision not to get a new head coach in after Beale. In my opinion anyway. Just a short term gig for an old head to bring some leadership and standards on match days. We do not have that on the pitch or on the touchline.

    And I might shed tears if I have to see 5 at the back again with this squad. Terrible formation to play.

    Everybody knew we needed a cdm. We concede on a break, again. Everybody knew we needed a better striker. We struggle to finish teams off again. I really hope there’s less stubborn arrogance this a window coming. It’s not hard to plan to play against us .

    Ah well, one game left and then we can confine this season to the history books and look forward to the exciting changes that are sure to happen over the summer. :)

    Styles is dying to play in the position he plays best.

    On todays game

    We were the better team, and if clarke had his shooting boots on we win that

    A sloppy goal to concede and we just werent clinical in the final 3rd

    Dodds just sets teams up to not lose rather than trying to win games, really disappointing when you know your 'head coach' wont make changes to positivitly change a game

    It will feel doom n gloom after the run of form weve been on but we are not in a mess. We need a good summer thats for sure but a good manager changes EVERYTHING. Qpr n sheff wed have been top 10 teams since their managers have come in but both have poor squads.

    Big changes are coming at the club but the building blocks are there for us to kick on n bounce back nxt season

    Dont get folk writting off next season already

    At least it’s only one more with Dodds, Jesus Christ! Manager appointment absolutely crucial, hope we’ve learnt our lesson

    Looked to me like a typical mid table clash really. Not a lot to play for and could go either way.

    We should have got at least a point, but if your chances are either passed back to the keeper or you trip over the ball (I’m still baffled how Roberts did that, utter turd there), then you aren’t going to score.

    This season can just do one. Get it done, get the new man in & press reset.
