Grim viewing from Ellerslie.

As has been the case the last few times we’ve played this lot, they’ve got an energy we don’t. Too quick for us to play through Johansen and too strong to bang it up to Austin, who has been dreadful. Fair play to them.

You have to give Warburton the benefit of the doubt when it comes to Thomas but I’m ****ed if I can see what he’s bringing to the table.
 
to make 2 subs in first half indicates how poor the performance is. However, the team have made two long journeys to Hull and Middlesborough.
Lets hope for a better 45...
And also makes you wonder why they chucked Dozzel in the deep end when we could have started with Ball, who's been our best player so far this season. We could have started Ball, established ourselves in the match and then bring on Dozzel when things look OK in the second half.

Another thought... Johanssen stood still and got passed around for their second. And he's been absolutely silent today. I haven't seen him talking to players. Is he really a captain type? He also doesn't seem that bothered today.

Chris Willock seems to be a bit of a leader today. Dropping back, asking for the ball all the time, encouraging players, asking them to calm down when things are getting hairy.

Ball was suffering from fatigue I read, so on the Bench. Today so far we have really missed him, and Field.
 
Lots and lots of things wrong today. Ive heard a better atmosphere and more noise at the local park. Thomas is league 2 standard at his very best. The balance and set up was all wrong to start with. Its taken 2 goals to realise and change it. This game could have been so different with less disruption by just playing Dunne. I really am scratching my head at Warbles over this. Every bit of play down the left has to go backwards as kakay is right footed. Every bit if play down the right has to go backwards cos Thomas is crap. Hes changed it so lets hope its a positive 2nd half as that was a qpr performance of old.

It is difficult to argue with your assessment!

But you can let a player player with fatigue play to get the composure to start with. Then replace him later.
 
Dunne on for Big ****ing Dutchman.

I have a feeling we are finishing this game with ten men at most, Austin needs a Zimmer frame already

Dunne coming on! For De Wijs due a bang on the head they say. All 3 subs used.

Ball saved us there.
