    We just look clueless. Tactically wrong from the start. We just do the same thing over and over. It’s pedestrian, limited and getting duller by the week. Feel like Howe will get another 6 months to drive home our mid table aspirations before someone works out he’s actually not very good.

    Over the course of the day and the past few months I've seen literally every player being blamed.... the manager is responsible when the entire side is playing badly.

    I'm a bit disappointed with our shots to goal ratio

    11 shots but only 3 on target (2 goals)
    it's normally a lot better than that

    I think the biggest issue as I see it is how ****ing insipid Howe has made the club. With the boring signings and standing by lumps we just look like a really uninteresting team. In a global game we look like scrappy underdogs. It’s just all a bit crap.

    Proper slow to pass it out from the back too, gives the opposition all the time in the world to reset.

    Most the side are not good enough and our better players are fed up now. I've no doubt we'll still have the crap players for many years.

    No matter what happens they survive.

    This manager is small fry and needs replacing because his team is a reflection of him.

    Botman unfortunately is woefull at the moment. Rest of the team very scrappy. Just not quite working at the moment.

    Eh? We’re about to drop to 11th and exit the FA Cup. It’s been a ****ing disaster and this hasn’t worked since about October.

    Mate forget the numbers and it's easy to see that we're not a very good side. It's also glaringly obvious that every side is attacking our left over and over and over again. They must think it's Christmas every week.

    Murphy longstaff Ritchie shouldn't be anywhere near the club by now and neither should krafth, Schar, Dubravka, Lascelles and on and on and on they go still here..... this ownership is rapidly heading towards being the next Everton


    Murphy scored today so he's here another ten years I bet.

    This is rinse and repeat isn't it.

    We are dull, lacking ideas, slow from the off one match and rightfully lose - then we beat someone like Forest, Wolves or whatever at home, people says it's all good again.

    Inconsistency is killing us, our players seem to pick and choose their games nowadays, there's no urgency.

    You can see it in the first 5 mins, you know the only changes will be if one of our lot is injured. Not due to any tactical nous.

    I just want us in another direction, some new players and a new style. I think a new coach would be a nice breath of fresh air.

    We fail to get Europe then Howe will be gone.

    Sean Longstaff has been **** for months. Everyone but Howe can see it. It is costing us massively.

    Miley did more in like 10 minutes than Longstaff has done in 10 games.

    I like Howe but the Injuries and Fatigue excuse went out a while ago for me, we've had key players back and lots of days off since our last game and the same problems are still there for everyone to see. Every week it seems there's another player that is suggested when they come back our results will pick up and they never do, there are serious structural problems with the game plan and no real effort to fix it.
