    Ordinarily would just accept it and be willing to give Slot the time, but you can’t ignore the fact he is making the same mistakes every week.

    Our best and only player who seems up to full fitness is completely unnecessarily thrown at RB, and despite the fact that we were playing ok and the opener was against the run of play, we act like it’s the 85th minute, **** all tactics and shape off and run forward like a bunch of U12’s - it’s pathetic

    It has to get better than this, we have too many good players not to turn this around. The biggest disappointment for me is losing at home. We have always found a way to win at home despite some performances not being the best. We're losing the fear factor.

    I'm always guided by the reaction of the match going fans as to how good or bad things are. They tend to be more patient and forgiving than the keyboard warriors. If Slot loses the match going fans, then he could be in trouble.

    I've stopped caring now, same as I did during the slump in the 20-21 season. Barring an absolute miracle the title is beyond us now, so for me the pressure is off, and I'm just interested to see where it goes and how much worse it can get before it gets better.

    People leaving with 10 minutes to go. Unheard of in recent years.

    It wasn't long ago, we could be 3 nil down with 5 minutes to go, looking defeat in the face, but in the back of your mind you knew, if we got the next goal we could turn this around.

    We look like we could play for another 5 days never mind minutes and not score.

    Mate, I wouldn't take any notice of a fan of a club whose biggest achievement was an FA cup 100 years ago.

    It's not surprising that their fans don't know the difference.

    My niece goes to every home game. Haven't spoken to her about today's game but she gives me an insight into the general feeling amongst the fans at the game. You know from when you go to the game, you do tend to have a different opinion very often than when you watching it on the telly.

    The last time that I felt like this was under Hodgson. I said to my lad before the game that I had a bad feeling about it. Slot seems to not trust some players and that means that instead of accepting a slightly weaker option in one position, he moves our best player this season into a different role and weakens two positions.

    Thats not even discussing the forward position; Isak should be on for 20m if the game is secure.

    I’m fed up of seeing him make the same mistake over again. It’s like Groundhog Day. It’s clear now that we won the league with a team he did not influence -we won on muscle memory, if you like.

    Slot did influence it, we played at a slower pace under him last season.
