Aye, I think it was Spurr or Akpan on the ball. Everybody standing still, led to a chorus of boos/jeering. Seems to have given them a bit of a kick up the arse as we've started passing it quicker since then.

Where ?

The lack of attackibg urgencey is pathetic

Boos are never good to hear, they're embarrassing. Still, that was very poor.

our movement off the ball is poor and as such the person who has the ball have little if any options

Awful. Seems to be a completion in midfield for who can give the ball away quickest. Meanwhile defence are happy just to move it from side to side.

This is not the sign of a happy group. Spurr and Conway seem to have both been give the same set of instructions by mistake.

We need a midfielder to drive up the middle. Akpan is helping things to happen up the right wing a little with Bennett doing okish.

Conway on the left is hanging out wide too much instead of coming inside and letting Spurr overlap.

Lenihan has had a couple of good tackles but also given the ball away dangerously a couple of times.

Brown doing a lot of running and moving the defence about (Kuqi-esque) but Rhodes unable to take advantage of his 4 chances.

Not playing 'badly' as such, just no imagination. It's all steady Eddie which we CANNOT AFFORD TO DO WHEN BEHIND!

I wonder if I'm being kind with that assessment tbh. Have my own expectations been dumbed down that much over these 5 years?

Still don't get the thought behind our best crosser playing LM when he has to keep cutting inside, instead of crossing first-time.

From which section DE have these boos come from?

Where are you sat to hear them

I'm sat right in front of you and deaf and I heard them :P they were only for a couple seconds but definitely there.

Exactly. Been saying the same for a long time.

Could hear them in BBE

Good, otherwise we'd have to conclude the TV company were adding them in for effect. Can't beat a round of boos at the end of the half to add some drama.

I think that's a good summary. We just need a goal. Akpan playing well and so are Brown & Rhodes. We have the problem of no midfield apart from Akpan.
