    One player I’m really happy for now that he’s played semi regularly is Hjelde thought he was solid again today

    Watson needs to be sent to Brighton now, roberts although he had a bad game has been hampered by the Hume sending off. Hume helps him out brilliantly down the right he was always gonna have a quiet game.

    I’d honestly rather give another member of the u21’s a run out

    Yes there's that as well. The grandson thinks he's the bees knees at times when his team plays against not so good teams, I try to remind him that he still has to put the effort in and show why he can be good. The amount of times I shout at him to run back when his team are defending! <laugh>

    He is just overrated IMO and not ready for consistent mens football. He has had a couple of good games. That's it. Very weak and his head isn't in it now. I'll be amazed if he gets to the PL starter level.

    It's either Mayenda or ELF outwide.

    Our worst passer and an accident waiting to happen...

    My biggest concern though is who do we play left side of midfield? Watson and Isidor is not the answer

    that was shocking the 2nd half that was kids attitude what the hell happened ? 3 subs made no impact a team of 2 halves defined here well next game for me the play off 2nd home leg, i hope they don't throw that away, Le bris won't get us up i know that after that dross good job there was a 12 point gap as well. and the supporters wasted journey. there is no excuse for that cave in even with 10 men

    Well after that we have nothing to be scared of I thought Bristol huffed and puffed against 10 MEN we ran, out of steam which is expected never a sending off.
    Strange substitutions by RLB.
    Watson will, not be playing in the playoffs.
    Disappointed but not down
    A good showing against Blackburn and we will be up and running again.

    Me too but either him or Wilson on the left please. Both can play there.

    Watson is a waste and doesn't want to be here, playing that way too. Get him gone

    Hjelde to get booked profit this season has basically paid for next years season ticket

    He’s ****e, genuinely can’t defend. Just fouls whenever someone is past him <laugh>

    10m received for Watson.

    £850k paid for Mayenda

    £2m for mundle

    £3m for jobe.

    could go on but you get the idea, all similar ages. Can’t complain at those deals.

    Great first half, then we went to deep. Fluke equaliser and a cock-up for the winner just summed up our game after the poor sending off. Need Mayenda down the middle and struggling to resolve our left side with Mundle out.
