Wahey! And he doesn't disappoint. On an undefeated run and he's nowhere to be seen. A defeat and the twat comes back to post. Exactly why I hate this forum more and more by the day.

It's always sisus fault, Bigirama was shite when he came on - that'll be sisu's fault, bringing cody off- sisu's fault, just piss off Thorn, you can't do it when it matters.

losing hussey was big,but the fact that we hardly made any chances is the real dissapointment
bristol have 2 hard games now,if we manage to win 1 of millwall or bunrley were right back in it but i fear time has ran out for us

What about the people who say thorn is amazing when we win but not that he was awful when we lose because of bad tactics and subs?
Christie, Platt, Cranie - Hang your heads in shame. You were particularly bad today. Also, why is Thorn so fu**ing thick sometimes?? Deegan was having a shocker he needed to come off much earlier than that. He seems to only think subs are appropriate after we have conceded, otherwise there's nothing wrong

Thorn is partially at fault for today and the season but a large portion of the fault is SISU's feet.
At 1-1 today Hussey is injured and a 19 year old in his first professional season replaces him. What should have happened is Mcpake came on and Cranie gone to LB.

We're as good as down now IMO! Hate to say that but it's true! Sounded like the players were about as up for it as they were V Charlton the other yr when we deserved to go down!
Time to know plan for next season. Drop Clingan, let him rot somewhere (would say reserves but we don't really have one), and anyone else who doesnt want to be here!

the midfield were anonymous today.
Bristol played well in the second half, that is exactly the sort of performance we would be expecting of the city at home. Our bench is too weak - Christie, Bigi, Willis and Nimely
the pace of adomoah pushed our defence back and with adamoah and pearson playimg very wide stopped the fullbacks getting forward - the gap between the midfield and forwards was huge

The players looked nervous, waiting for the inevitable sucker punch... and right on cue it came and sucked out all their fight. Such a painful game to watch with not enough chances being made.

Need 3 wins on the spin now you feel. Looking very bleak.
I though it was a scrap between two poor teams today. We looked ragged throughout and suffered for having a tiny squad at the end of the 90. 7 game unbeaten run means nothing when you lose against your biggest rivals after it.
Thorn must make the players believe for the final four matches because nothing is impossible, but that defeat is so demoralising that it's going to be very difficult. Have to hope that Bristol think they're safe and slip up.

We looked like we could have beat Bristol today and were gifted the lead. What transpired is we failed to capitalise against a team looking like they just did not want to win. Players went missing and tactically we were set up wrong and then failed to make the changes when they were glaringly obvious. The changes that came were wrong too.
Going forward we just never looked like scoring second half and when Cody went off our chances were lessened further.
can't understand that?
We had plenty more in the tank but it never happened - did Thorn remind them how important the game was?
I was disappointed after a good beginning and we looked like we could do well but slowly gave away the initiative for some reason.

The worst part is that I'd already got used to the idea of League One, then we hit form and I'd grown accustomed to what I've heard described as 'optimism' (might be a foreign word). Now I'm looking at the deficit and seeing Bristol's fixtures and thinking it's far from over, but then we've taken one point in the weekend so we're losing momentum fast so I don't know what to think now.
'Shit' is the first thing that comes to mind.

We need to win all our remaining games now.
I can see Bristol getting 6 points at least from there last 2 games. I can't see them beating Birmingham and West Ham
Then WTF do i know

Yeah, so we bring on Gael, who had a shocker Saturday, and today, like Christie, proceeded to give it straight to the opposition CONSTANTLY. Maybe lack of quality or options is why we are where we are? Bristol made 6 changes from their XI on Saturday and had Premiership loans like Wood and Emphrahim on the bench. Thorn can only dream of such resources! We are a shit squad, end of story. Can't blame a manager for not having any players, and when it comes to debating what he does with them, it's just splitting hairs-replace one shit player with another one, or at least one that's 2 years off ready for first team football at this level!
It's not all over yet, but it may well be. Think I'll stay away from here for a bit as it's clearly about to turn into the "blame the manager for everything" forum again. Just hope that if we are down, that makes a takeover more likely. I decided a few weeks back that I couldn't justify renewing my ST with this lot in charge given that I'll miss more games due to work anyway. Can't believe so many people thought we were safe before Saturday!
