    Anyone who thinks we have progressed under Pearson is kidding themselves.

    IMO Massengo by far our best player, the one player trying to make things happen

    Tanner is young and learning, he’s going to make mistakes, it to be expected he’s gone up several levels and on the whole coped really well, to sub him like that was ridiculous, now Simpson has done the same and he’s a senior pro so no excuses, what’s Nige gonna do to Simpson?, just makes Nige look like an ass. I still support him but I’ve been really disappointed at times with his man management.

    Probably because they’ve taken their foot off the gas, no point in busting a gut when you’re 3-0 up you may as well just cruise and save energy.

    They didn’t let us before, at 3-0 just seeing the game out.

    Very poor game management, I’ve never seen why we got Simpson. If it’s to help with youngsters then that’s not going too well either.

    Completely agree, didn’t even want him here on loan, as for keeping him , complete waste of a wage, however low. Where’s Vyner ?

    At least The Port beat Rovers, as it’s been a **** day. Didn’t check my fantasy league saw Chelsea win by 7 to find out Lukaku’s injured so no points there either.

    IMO we need to change tactics, looking to press and close down rather than sitting and trying to break...we don't have the players for the latter against decent teams. That has to come from Pearson... It's something I've been saying for months, especially at home.....but heyho, what do I know.......we actually look good when we do it....Yes there is a chance at getting caught out, but no more than we are now......IMO!!

    If the performances by the City players and manager were in the real working world I would suggest that they would all be out of work next Monday. Shocking and sad that we have had no progress under the new regime and quite frankly I have no idea where the performances needed to improve us is coming from.

    Partly I agree, but I think they up for the thumping, but we actually tried to play and IMO looked much better. They looked good going forward, but not so good at the back when under pressure..

    I thought Forest looked a bit dodgy at the back too, trouble is we aren’t able to keep or pass the ball for any length of time to test teams defences out.
