    Neil should use his body to cover the ball in the penalty

    cheers again RTB...

    after the last two games, the defence has been shocking so far...need to wake up.

    been 'all us' but far too many bad passes.

    Sometimes playing it out from the back goes tits up, it's a calculated risk. Patterson's distribution is his weak point but it's very rarely a problem.

    Double error from Patto. I can't help but feel we're asking him to do more with his feet of late which isn't his game. Our passing across the back in general has been dicey so far.

    We're so predictable at the back. Messed about and nearly got caught out early on then did the same again.

    We've come back from 1-0 plenty of times, there's over an hour left.

    Yeah. All over the place. System is out of sync with the players and there is no flow at all. Needs adjusting to something that they are familiar with.

    From what I can see (watching on a mobile phone) we seemed to get a grip and create a couple of chances then we give them a goal which givesbthem a head of steam!!
