    We got what we deserved although it's always a sickener to lose in those circumstances.

    We looked so tired as a team. Sunday must have taken an awful lot out of us. Our lack of options is chronic. Giles and Simons didn't improve the first half team and didn't offer anything different. Bedia only comes on because Pedro is dead on his feet. As was Burstow. Harry Vaughan did ok but didn't really offer anything other than fresh legs.

    Kamara? I hope Selles leaves it tonight but tomorrow he needs to lay it on the line. Tell him he let all his Marras down. Blokes who'd worked their bollocks off for 96 minutes and must just be feeling sick when they see a late sub jogging back and not getting close to putting a challenge in. Totally unacceptable. Needs doing privately between Boss and employee and it needs to be a line in the sand moment. Never want to see that again.

    And you owe the lads big time, so go and put it right over the rest of the season.

    Fair enough critique the performance but give the manager a chance ffs he’s barely in the door.

    Don’t consign all our players and the team to the dustbin already.

    Almost secured a great 0-0 there, onto the next one, up the tigers.

    Don’t care. In the reverse fixture under Dawson, we had 3 shots on target, more possession and twice as many passes. In both games, we’ve come away with **** all but tonight was worse. We didn’t have a single shot on target tonight. Crap football to watch.

    But we need to talk about what the **** that performance was

    0 shots on goal
    We offered absolutely nothing and were penned in almost the full game

    This season has but one objective now - stay up. Acuntalk & Walterball and a top 6/10 finish were pie-in-the-sky babblespeak with absolutely nothing factual/concrete to back either up. Talk about the King's New Clothes and the Wonderful Wizard of Oz. We have been mercilessly found out.

    I’d have snapped your hand off for 2 points out of Blackburn, Boro and Leeds and we already have 3.

    State of this place.

    Selles just needs to point at Vaughan. Dropped down to the U21’s he’s worked hard to get back to first team action. With half of Kamara’s ability he made twice the impact. He helped Giles with Doak, took a yellow for the team, closed down with intensity and got on the ball.

    I hope the owner has deep pockets and seemingly, he is going to have to be at his most persuasive ever...

    Coyle, Jones and other senior members of the squad should be making it crystal clear to kamara that what he did tonight was utterly and totally unacceptable. Sometimes a manager doesn't need to say anything and just let the squad deal with it internally. I've seen it happen a fair few times before and things can be made very uncomfortable for players when they let the team down last that to make it crystal clear, the times I saw it happen, the player never did it again.

    Jones and Coyle are just as culpable for the goal??

    Its never one players sole fault for a goal
    But coyle etc had just been on their feet for 94 mins
    We were knackefed but defended to man brilliantly

    And kamara jogging back in the last 3o seconds of the game?

    Almost unforgiveable imo

    If he'd have done that in one of my teams I captained he'd have been going to a&e to have my boot surgically removed from his arse

    Way to miss the point

    Its about a total stupid decision to put zero effort in as a sub in the last seconds of the game

    Agree
    Play Vaughan instead of Kamara against Leeds. Always liked his play. Give him a chance.

    Of course, 1 point. Brain malfunctioned there.

    Have a look at the pitches at Bristol City and Brentford. They have had rugby union teams playing on them all through the winter and the rain and bad weather we have had and their pitches are immaculate compared to ours.
