Those who think we are too good for a relegation are in for a surprise

Just woeful

We look amateur so often this season. Other teams seem much more savvy

Giving the ball away so cheaply

Last season’s collapse- which saw us heading down at a rate of knots- could be written off if all were well. Only it isn’t. Once again we had a short summer of good results quickly followed by a total collapse of form and massive slide- when you then factor in very similar patterns in his last two appointments- only an idiot wouldn’t be worried. He’s a nice chap but quickly found out and lacks the flexibility to stop it when he is sussed out. Our stats in last ten are woeful

Because the entire record is important. We see trends and can make fair judgements. Let me reverse the question for you- why just brush the appalling end of last season under the carpet and pretend it isn’t relevant?

Name me another manager who would survive 6 wins in 23 matches with a team claiming to be a promotion pushing side? A good start to the season - now looking like a freak streak- has quickly given way to the same woeful results we saw at the end of last season. yes we have been unlucky with injury but that doesn’t explain playing Sara- our best creative and attacking force- defensively. It doesn’t excuse formulaic non sensible substitutions which always make us worse not better, it doesn’t explain a lack of plan B. It doesn’t explain a persistent lack of a CDM. Nor 3 years of underinvestment on the pitch and poor recruitment. Nor the loss of many disgruntled staff to Ipswich who are now flying. Nor will it justify signing over the hill ageing players to fit into a system that requires enormous energy levels and fitness. For me it’s clear Webber needs to go this morning. As do the Smiths. We can thank them sincerely. What we don’t need is a ludicrously protracted process of hand over which is squeezing ambition out of the club as is now visible on the pitch. then the new owners and DOF can appoint a better manager and let the new era begin. Otherwise this form is going to see us fighting off relegation before long rant over

It’s a good bet that we paid for Hwang by reducing Omo fee because we had no money. No Omo is not playing and we don’t have him. Stinker of a summer where we really downgraded the squad.

Long was poor yesterday I thought. I fear for us if he is in for a while.

The other problem is that the further into the rear window promotion recedes, the less attractive we will look to talented players and the less likely it is that our good ones remain. The club need to sort this fast or we will slide into a place where we no longer have talent to sell to plug the lack of investment and then we will discover where our natural place is in the economic order-

A smile and a grimace. A smile because he is sheer quality - a grimace because we just don’t match his ambitions meaning he will be off sooner rather than later

Also note that on recent form we are relegation material. Conceded more goals kn last 6 than any other side and only 2 teams got less points. This form is genuinely dismal. Something needs to change

Wagner does seem out of his depth- and bar a good season at Huddersfield hasn’t done much. Great interpersonal skills, seems a lovely chap- but tactically very questionable. I think most prior managers would have us looking less frail when the pressure is on

Blaming the fans is a new low Branston. This is poorly down to a below average squad and some awful game management and substitutions. You could smell it coming and it did. Again. Poor - and a reflection of the board and players not the fans

Woeful game management again, who couldn’t see it coming once they got the first?

you wouldn’t want this squad in a relegation fight would you? No hunger, no bite, no mental strength. Weak, weak, weak. At this rate it could happen too. Our form is dismal

Bottom half championship squad. Bit better with first choice XI but not much. Another rubbish window has led to another rubbish season

When is it a disaster? We are in decline - lost to Plymouth by a hatful and are mentally poor. The older players were meant to bring nous- they haven’t

We are mentally poor - you could see it coming. Long is poor too

So poor

Look really ragged - these subs better be good

People say idah is given a hard time - but he really doesn’t help himself does he? What a sitter

Long let that go - poor

What a goal!! He’s wasted further back

He was injured- left leg Leeds are cutting us open far, far too easily No bite in midfield - AGAIN
