You don't buy that the 13/14 players we've had to flog due to injuries for 2 months are tired after a festive period fixture list? H'ok. 

No I don't. And people were saying pre Christmas period that they were knackered so how do you square that one?

We played well today until a handful of players were knackered and had to make some subs.

Rotherham didn't deserve a point, but that's what happens when the taps get turned off and you have owners and their underlings who don't understand the rudimentary demands of a football team.

We played well.

They are knackered.

X didn't deserve a point.

Rinse and repeat.

Heard it all before.

And the Rotherham players aren't. Why?

Exactly. It's an excuse I hear from alot of supporters. I don't buy it, it's an easy out for people who can't except the limitations of this manager.

Cos he's been given such substantial funds to play with...

God forbid he doesn't ever try something different and you know, show a bit of initiative. All too cushy under naive Jon. Nice guy though.

There keeper comes and claims the cross.

Watch and learn Leo

I forgot what it actually looked like to see a keeper claim a cross.

Jdt needs to take a long hard look at himself. Nice guy but patience can only last so long

But the players are knackered don't you know? 🙄

Going life or death with Rotherham. JDT a lucky lucky man out owners are so absent. Naive Job stokes again.

Any chance of stopping the cross Harry?

So laboured second half. No urgency since we scored. Need to put it to bed.

Taking Moran off, he’s had a good game

Thought he was quite anonymous

How Is Telalovic doing?

Not bad, few decent bits of link up play but need to see more. Looks eager in fairness to him.

Fucking get in. Go on Hilly, driving forward with urgency. Ice cold Sammie. Let's get it going now and get out of sight!

Think we will go on to nick it but if we don't it's solely on the keeper again. I'll take a win no matter how it comes.

You can see how Wahlstedts constant fuck ups effects the whole team. It knocks the stuffing out of them, all our good work undo by a keeper who can't keep a clean sheet most games, letting in the tamest of efforts and zero presence in his own box. Infuriating.

Leo has the attributes to be a good keeper but I can’t remember seeing anyone as bad when a ball is floated into the box, his punches are weak and into the wrong areas, he flaps and is rash with his decision making.  He seems intent on making contact with the ball with no thought about where it’s going to end up. The communication between him and the defence is appalling. If he can sort this side to his game he will be a top keeper but it’s painful watching him at the minute

What's attributes??? He's weak in every department.

It’s not just Chaddy - many on here seem to see something in him. 

It’s beyond a joke now that we are resorting to him 

It's blue and white tinted glasses. I used to do it years ago but then you grow up and realise you shouldn't be afraid to call it as it is. Willing lads to be good or convincing yourself they are are quality because they are a rover is stupid. 

No defending what we have seen from him so far. Truly shocking and pathetic.

He appears to have married the combination of being shite and unlucky.

Yep..he's a real treat.  I have honestly never seen a worse run of "form" from any keeper ever. Look at Rotherhams in comparison. He's played very well today already.

Hill was the one beaten for the header. Your CB can't be beaten that easily from a cross. 

That's the keepers ball all day. Was inside the 6 yard box.

This keeper is the worst I have ever seen. Absolutely awful. He's costing us every week. Every game. Complete farce.

Brittain having a stormer. Always rated him, criticised fairly recently by a few but I do think he is a solid player.

Super finish. Adam Wharton with the penetrating pass, brilliant. Sammie always lovely which led to it dropping to Siggy.

I do think Siggy could get 10-15 goals a season if not more. Will frustrate at times but definitely can finish.

Happy New Year men. Hope everyone has a happy and healthy 2024. 🍻

Tomasson's is being exposed as a coach who gets his team playing attractive football (sometimes) but is weak defensively,  prone to mistakes, and buckle under the slightest pressure

The club's deeper problems aside, there's too many folk making excuses for him

I think more and more are starting to realise his limitations regardless of the situation. I see far less excuses on here for him in recent weeks. 

Summed up easily. The problem is shit owners, shit board and a manager with a nice football philosophy but limited tactical ability and nous.

JDT appears to be a lovely man and probably great company and likeable. Owners and board seem rotten to the core, shady and corrupt. It is not a good combo whatever way you square it.
