Yep he’s going down before there is any contact then he catches him, usually given though -

We played well in patches through the game. But if you concede cheap goals and struggle to convert it's a recipe for disaster. A few other points As much as we never recover in a game when we go behind we rarely manage to lose when we go ahead in recent seasons. But today is the second time we have managed to lose after leading already this season. While Ismael seems to have us well organised in our initial shape (though we look sloppy defending set pieces) whenever we try and do anything different - add subs, chase a game etc - we look really disjointed and fall apart. We really look like we don't have leaders when we are up against it, which is not surprising when we sold Hyam, Baath and Travis all in one fell swoop We haven't even started to get into the mad rush of games through the winter yet and already we look really dependent on a few key players who are already starting to look knackered. What happens if Tronstad, Alebiousu, Cantwell go down injured? I thought Morishita was quite good when he first arrived, but he's really struggled last couple of games, and Kargbo has been absolutely diabolical. The main ray of sunshine is Alebiousu who is fantastic. Gudjohnsen looks willing but not sure he is really going to add many goals. We have to not concede like we did today. Should have got a draw minimum, but lost to two really really sloppy easy goals which Ismael whole brand is about not conceding from. -

Just seen the replay of their second goal. Kargbo, with his only real asset being pace, just slowly jogging watching the Swansea player break away! AK47 turned into a spud gun. Absolute shite. -

Cantwell and Alebiosu the only ones along with Toth who seems to have Championship class. Trondstad seems well off this year. -

Stinking performance overall, stinking result. We did create some chances today, but creating odd chances at home against midtable fodder isn't something to celebrate. The fact that Alebiosu looks like our best player tells you everything. I thought it was a penalty, obviously haven't seen it back, but if we had got it, it would have been a massive get out of jail because we are awful. Kargbo and Gudjohnsen were so bad it was like we were playing with 9. Unfortunately the non-penalty will dominate the headlines and give Ismael his excuse for another torrid performance. When did we last start a season as badly as this at home? -

Nothing whatsoever to do with luck, we're a shite team with a worse manager. Thought Alebiosu was excellent and Cantwell played reasonably well. Hickman was ok first half. The rest of them might as well not have bothered. Everyone raves about Tronstad yet every time we're live on TV he's dreadful. Predictably we're missing Travis badly. Gudjohnsen Miller and Kargbo looked Sunday League standard. Can't see any way out of this there's next to zero quality in the squad and the head coach is even worse. -

Screw the LET ban and the niceties. Jackson should give the team and the club a rollicking in his match analysis (assume he’s doing one). If the club doesn’t like it, tough. Home truths need to be said -

A tiny purple patch at the end of last season doesn’t change anything, this guy was a dreadful appointment, one of the worst managers we’ve ever had and we’ve had some whoppers. -

Personally, I think the squad is league 2 if you take Cantwell out. We are so bereft of talent it is not true! -

Much better performance 2nd half. Blatant pen not given on Cantwell. Another set of officials who cant simple decision. Our best players today were Captain Cantwell and Alebiosu. Defeat we didnt deserve. Roll on Saturday dinner against Stoke. COYB🔵⚪️ -

Also looked like Miller was limping in the latter stages. Thank goodness we're so flush with central defenders and definitely reinforced after selling Hyam... -

It's kind of difficult to feel that upset about the prospect of relegation. Venky's deserve it. Suhail, Gestede and Owen deserve it. The manager and players will likely deserve it. The fans who'd rather wave toy snakes and sing about EFL conspiracies deserve it. Not all of us obviously, but a fair few from what's left. A truly rotten club. It's going to be a long way back. -
