    On the bright side, Fellows has been excellent

    Turning toxic in the away end. Still needs to get a grip and quickly.

    Hard to see what Still can do here.. just read 0/12 crosses successful. For a team that’s attack is supposed to be built off of crosses that is absolutely dreadful

    I know we are not where we should be, and the energy levels are low, but when we do play it around we look neat and compact. Fellows is all over the pitch linking things up. Charles is great. Jander just coming in to the game over the last ten minutes or so and starting to impress.

    I starting to worry a bit about Azaz. Not really on form. Downs needs a bit of luck so badly!

    Better performance I think than any of our other first halves this season, but still ****. Hopefully improve second half as Hull likely sit back as time goes on.

    I missed some of that but it looked pretty poor. They were half-decent right at the start but then it all went backwards until the last few minutes.

    Get Downs and Fraser off. Stewart and Scienza on.

    Best chance came from passing through the middle. That’s what we need to do.

    Unfortunately Downs is our striker though.

    Just not enough threat. As soon as we start looking to play through we look better. Prob should be 1-1.

    For a super fit team, we do look a bit ponderous!

    Just need to pick up the pace a bit. A much better shape than previous. Can see a resemblance of a team

    It was the worst! Especially considering we're playing one of the weaker teams in the league.

    We are passing better and through the lines but we still lack a clinical goalscorer.

    I just had the misfortune to watch that first half. The only time they played with any urgency was in the 4 minutes stoppage time, presumably they'll do the same in the second half. Not a bad job only having to put any effort in for 10 minutes every week.

    nah we were way worse against Portsmouth, Wrexham and Stoke. Can see some shape and direction of what they are trying to do, even if they are executing it poorly. And playing far too slowly

    Yeah, I thought this at the time, but having seen that goal again there's no way Bazunu was at fault.

    Yep, look miles better when play through the middle. Bin the aimless crosses, were **** at it. Cue Stewart to score from a corner.
