My stream went off for the Leonard goal. Hedges injured?

Can't blame him for the subs, it's shit or shitter. Not much choice is there. I can blame him for selecting Pears again.

Ipswich goalie gifts us a goal and piss poor for the third and they'd be the same. It's massively on him.

No need for homework. All the opposition managers will know we're over reliant on kids, have a shit keeper and little to no goal threat.

The aim is to stay in this division and develop players. That came from those dickheads in India. Don't say Waggs didn't prepare you.

Down to 16th. Thanks Venkys.

Far too slow and being caught in possession all the time. There'll be a decent pass then one of our forwards will take too many touches on it and lose it when they have options to pass it forward. Really frustrating.

Nobody in the box. Someone sliding in and it's a goal.

It's arguable that Pears is the reason we've been poor. What a great motivator for the oppo team.

Gregg, Swagg and Pisha certainly didn't.

I've defended JDT, but I can't keep defending him if he keeps selecting Pears.

Take Pears off.

Pears, awful.

I didn't think it was a penalty as it looked accidental and their player ran across ours, from behind which he couldn't possibly see, whilst he was kicking. Ball and player heading away from goal too. After seeing the obvious foul on Dolan at the weekend it seemed particularly harsh. I haven't watched a clear replay. As for Leonard, he had a couple he should have buried.

Agree with the above but if Pears starts tomorrow, I'll start to fall out with JDT. Anyone know if Gilsenan is still injured?

And this year there's no prolific goalscorer. What a great idea to appoint a manager who wants to attack teams, then fail to sign any tried and tested attackers. Just like the instruction to develop players into the next big thing, then don't sell them while they are hot and the debt is rising. Another in a long line of nonsensical decisions by the idiot owners.

Szmodics should have done better with his shot but that Leonard shot right at the keeper when there's an open goal... If only we had a quality striker. It'd certainly go some way to papering over the cracks.

Dolan isn't contributing to the midfield at all so won't be missed.

Perish the thought, but should we drop Dolan and go 4-4-2 with Semir and Leonard? With our attacking options being so lightweight maybe two heads are more of a handful than one.

JRC hasn't impressed in midfield so far. Not the same player as some of his barnstorming midfield cameos from last season. Not match fit?

After 25-30 mins I'd say, but it's also that we're having so many chances and not scoring. It must be demoralising to know that all the effort is for naught.

Spot on.

No need for sarcasm, it's far worse than last season as you well know.

Some of them have been poor at finishing for 2 or more seasons now so I doubt it. Hopefully someone steps up like Brereton did.

I don't want to write him off too early as he may not be match fit, but although he had a few moments on Saturday, he didn't impress me. We didn't need another player to develop, we needed a guy to hit the ground running and be our main source of goals.
