    Can't find a link to a stream but stats say only one shot on target so far.

    Eadie just lamenting our total lack of creativity, too easy to defend against.
    So we have Wes and Redmond both on the bench and are playing with a narrow 'workmanlike' midfield four? :emoticon-0112-wonde

    Only following on twitter, but I get the impression we're getting closer. If it's level at 65 minutes and we've not seen one of the defensive midfielders sacrificed for Redmond or Hoolahan, I'll be concerned.

    Can anyone tell me how we're playing? Possession is high (per BBC) but can't get any other info apart from the usual

    Attempt missed. Bradley Johnson (Norwich City) left footed shot from more than 35 yards is too high. Assisted by Carlos Cuéllar.

    Sums it up so far, not much creativity in the final 3rd. Too narrow. Spoke to a mate who isat the match. Says we need more width.

    The starting line up was bizarre. Especially when you consider how difficult we find it to break teams down in home games.

    I think it's the old "never change a winning team" mantra. But I agree

    Gotta get Hoolahan, Redmond on after half time. Then maybe Lafferty/grabban on around the 70 minute mark if it's still the same.

    Sacrifice the 2 defensive midfielders we are playing for width keep maybe Tettey on to mop things up.

    One shot on target against 10 men for what 25 minutes?

    Mmmmmm, not great.

    Another make-or-break half time for Adams then! Would seriously hope for personnel changes, surely there's absolutely no justification for Tettey, Johnson and O'Neil.

    Would like to see Wes get 45 minutes behind two strikers. It was always his best role, so let's see if he's still got it.

    And Redmond, just to introduce some width and pace and stretch those two rigid banks of four a little <ok>

    Exactly, no need to have that many holding midfielders on the pitch. Especially at home.

    Keep Tettey on, bring Redmond and Hoolahan on.
