    That's the problem losing someone like Toral yesterday even though we have a number of midfielders to come in we don't really have a playmaker to take his place. Thought we played very well yesterday but just that little bit of extra class could have opened them up. We are not to far away from been a very good team but at the same time lose a couple more and it could be a struggle again. Let's hope we are somewhere near that top six in January

    got to agree on this, having two on a corner against our one left us exposed and we didn't learn from it. Then Livermore scored a good goal but the amount of time and room he had to pick his spot?

    I pretty much completely agree with you.
    The people that chose to chant anti Allam stuff against Derby should have done so against WBA.
    This who didn’t, shouldn’t
    I have no issue with those that either haven’t wanted to protest at all or have decided not to protest following some substantial changes...so yes those people who fit into either category shouldn’t have chanted against Derby. Some didn’t and my only issue is with those that did then but somehow had a Damascus moment between then and yesterday.

    Just seen Livermore's goal again , honestly don't remember him hitting any like that when he played for us
    bad defending from the corner but a great strike

    Unless it was 30 yards away, then apparently scoring goals isn't an issue for him.

    People seem to believe the Allams are genuine in what they're doing. That absolutely shocks me. What will it take for people to learn from history?

    That olive branch is ****ing poisonous.

    Stick it up their ****ing arse <ok>

    I want to see the Allams engage positively with the Trust before I will even begin to think they have changed.
    They are still doing "whats morally right for them", it just so happens that whats right for them happens to be popular at the moment.
    as George Santayana said "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."

    For a harmonious campaign and a hope that a greater crowd and a more positive outlook may well help sell the club, I’m prepared to see the positivity continue.

    It’s better than previous, not perfect, but definitely better. Surely that’s better for potential buyers too. Rather than seeing a club on a downward spiral with so much negativity surrounding it?

    Whether it’s poisonous or not, it’s more conducive to delivering results on the pitch.

    Burnsy said yesterday that he was the driving force, in fact, he used that exact phrase.

    I welcome the positive things that have been done recently, because it's good for the people who still want to go and enjoy their football. Honestly, I'm all for it. I just know there will be a sting in the tail.

    You do too.

    I like what McCann is trying to do. On and off the pitch. Some of his substitutions I could question, but he’s quickly recognised what needed to be done off the pitch. He seems a very strong character, stronger than Adkins and he doesn’t seem like he’ll accept the deterioration that had set in. It won’t please some I’m sure.

    Maybe, but for the sake of the team and the manager I’m prepared to give the benefit of the doubt.

    That's fine GLP. Everyone should do what they feel is right.

    I can't recall ever seeing a team deliberately leave 2 v 1 on short corners. It's just the done thing, if you see two of them taking it you send two defenders to close them down. It's utterly bizarre that we keep doing it and then not learning from it when it keeps leading to a near miss followed by a goal.

    Really annoying yesterday because we were matching them. They're a good side but they created nothing outside of that short corner. Once they were on top it was always going to be a struggle to stop them just managing the game to its conclusion, but we never should have gone behind as easily as that.

    Fair enough, but I would have thought he had enough on his plate sorting out the players, training, tactics and games, without getting involved in stuff the commercial and marketing dept. should be doing.

    Can’t agree with this. Da Silva Lopes has been excellent since he started getting a regular berth and was good yesterday. Alongside him, Stewart looked sluggish. I’d have been tempted to do a straight swap Stewart for Toral so as not to break up the Irvine/Lopes fulcrum that was working so well. That said, I agree that Batty knocks Honeyman into a cocked hat. The latter is energetic enough but not enough end product.
