Soon as we get the ball, we just smash it up field to no one. And when we are lucky where the ball falls to Hanlan, there is no one in support to help him so we can keep possession. So we lose the ball quickly and pressure comes straight back at us.
 
If we win this it will be a miracle. In fact, if we draw this it will be a miracle. We just aint offering anything. Its like we are too scared to attack in case we concede.
 
Westbrookes chance to make it 2-0 before half time has haunted us. Could have been game over and played the counter attack. Instead at 1-0 we just sat back thinking we can defend all game. Did the same at Sunderland and at Strewsbury. We held on for a draw at Sunderland. We held on for the win at Shrewsbury. Today, I hope BG has learned not to do this again as we are better than sitting back and parking the bus.

We wont score goals until we learn to shoot, we have got to learn that sides are NOT going to let us walk the ball into the net. I also think tonight it showed up our lack of striking options. We got everything we deserved tonight Nothing

Strikes me that it is suicidal football to invite a team as good as Hull to come at us, we aren't that good defensively, and it was only going to be a matter of time before we conceded. If I'm honest, I'm very disappointed with tonight's performance - particularly after such a promising start. We had all the advantages to have caused an upset tonight, a free weekend, no long distance travelling etc, but we managed to chuck the points away again! To let them have a 3rd goal just shows the huge gulf that exists between us and the top teams in this league.
 
Hull were a wannabe Premiership club until very recently, so I guess there's bound to be a gulf, but I thought we did OK until the last quarter, and tha last goal flattered them a bit.
 
The number of misplaced passes tonight was frightening was wondering if some of our players are colour blind and as for playing the ball back to our GK off our corner showed a lack of creativity, movement or vision, the 2 subs didn't make a lot of difference to our play or give much improvement, a recall for Kilgour for the next match I hope. Don't like this square passing, we seem to go backwards more than forwards and we didn't look like scoring more than 1 goal tonight
