That's a poor result - really shouldn't be losing to them at home. **** start, was always going to be an uphill struggle from then on in.....tough run of games coming up too, Leeds (A), Boro (H), Florist (A), Ispwich and Reading at home over Christmas, then Villa & Sheff Utd away in early January
Poor result of course but we’ll play worse and get points. Dreadful defending again for their second. That’s three games in a row that’s happened after we’d looked so good at the back for a while. Still created plenty in the first half which will be forgotten now. Removing Cameron lost us the midfield and ultimately led to their winning goal.
Rubbish result. I was expecting much better at home against a bottom three team. What the hell has happened to our defensive unit?!? I was expecting us to be tight after the defensive mistakes earlier in the week. This should have been a respectable win. We really need to pick ourselves up and get a clean sheet and win - c’mon Rrrrrrrs
Bit of credit for the opposition too. They didn’t play like a team at the bottom particularly in the first half. Bowen always causes us problems. Maybe it’s time for Furlong to come in.
Thing is Rangel looked our best defender again today and hit the post from 30 yards. Bidwell got in some decent crosses but struggled all game defensively against Bowen. But don't think either Rangel or Furlong will be good at LB. Maybe Furlong will get a game one day at CB, saw Hall was not on the Bench today.
Yeah was thinking at CB. Both Lynch and Leistner are one yellow off a suspension but I don’t fancy us against Roofe next week with our usual defence of geriatrics.
I've found it very strange that we've looked so solid with that back four. Maybe it was just a matter of time.
Terrible game and worst ref we've had for ages. Good first goal.for them.but second was a bit jammy. I can't recall the last time we had such sustained pressure for so long on a team during which we could have / should have / might have put three or so away. Tomer gave ball away for their third which was really unfortunate since it was one of the few attacks to succeed and that after a Lumley save initially. The subs changed the shape perhaps too much and we lost our way for a bit. Bright was causing them.trouble and should have been brought on earlier. Luke chose glory or bust at the death and might have fared better to pass to Bright though the ref was gagging to end the 4 mins which should have been more like 6. We can't win them all and the team.showed spirit and as long as that happens I can handle the inevitable losses. Onward and upward.
Only possible glint of light could be Southampton getting hammered and seeing Hughes’ facial expression running the entire gamut from a to b, where a is contorted consternation and b is fuming teeth gnashing
Bad day at the office, should’ve been 3-2 up at h/t, didn’t really create a lot in 2nd half even with a lot possession, brought Samuel on too late, very soft goals to give away, Bowen looked good all afternoon & so it proved with his goals, think we made them look better than they was, oh well we move on.
Unfortunately, by the looks of it it'll be Jose whose facial expressions will be getting scrutinised - Saints 2-0 up
Lucky third as the run of the ball went their way We were the better side no doubt in my mind Looking good and main thing is we will not go down playing this well
Probably the shortest amount of football I’ve seen played. We should have had ten minutes added to each half. Hull were poor sportsmen with horrible time wasting from the moment they scored after 5 mins. It was like watching American football today. Referee was poor. Our defending was poor. Cannot expect to win many when you give away soft goals week on week. Hopefully, lesson learned.
Think Lynch, Leischer and Luongo survived a yellow card limit break at Rotherham, and now have a few more to get before they miss games.
