    What was his message at half time cos it did not make ANY impact?

    What was Guly still on the pitch for?

    Why wasn't De Ridder playing from the start?

    Why haven't we signed more players already?

    We def need another defender after Martin's display...

    What the **** just happened?

    "What was Guly still on the pitch for?"-Because he was our best striker on the pitch.
    "Why wasn't De Ridder playing from the start?"-Because he doesn't do anything.
    The rest-Don't know.

    Guly played half decent, you clearly don't know the game of football.
    De Ridder, he isn't good enough. Part of the reason why the Danish bloke was sacked.
    Most transfers happen at the end of the window.
    We lost.

    Guly played ok! He was the only player that looked like making something happen! Connolly, however, was awful!

    Guly was poor, but he was involved. Connolly, like just about everyone else, was invisible.

    GUly isn't a striker. De ridder might have not been fully fit.

    Guly when he had the ball was dire but he was one of the only players to show some commitment to get the ball back. For once he played that role okay.
    My only worry now is how much of a miss will Jos be? Hamstring injury likely to be out for a few weeks at least. Fingers crossed cos Martin can't defend all alone!

    Guly was awful. No composure, but then nobody did...Connolly being the most surprising one with his experience.

    Give us no time on the ball, we tend to fall apart. It's no rocket science.

    Very harsh on De Ridder, easily the most skillful player at the club and the only one who beats his man 9/10. I would be furious if I were him constantly being on the bench behind that waste of space Guly, if De Ridder had a proper run in the team I reckon he'd have quite the impact.

    He clearly is good enough - top division clubs in Holland, France and England all wanted him before he signed for us. It's clear to all that he is talented, just bizarre that he hasn't had more of a chance.

    What was Guly still on the pitch for? Because adkins bums him

    Why wasn't De Ridder playing from the start? Because adkins likes him as an impact player. I disagree.

    Why haven't we signed more players already? Because Cortese drives a hard bargain which puts people off imo.

    We def need another defender after Martin's display... One display. He has done well every other time he has played. If we go by this, we need a new player for every position.

    What the **** just happened?

    Adkins tried to get the players to play with width in the second half by bringing on Holmes and De Ridder. It was the right thing to do (in my opinion) but the players didn't respond well enough. It's really not all on his head.

    Connolly is a 34 year old injury plagued player. A very good player but we should never have to rely on him.
