Tbf Jones is allowed to be scared. Probably why he needs a loan out to get over the mental demons.

Was Jones on the left or right? He’s so much more dangerous on the right.

he’s got a year to prove himself at this level - loaning him out is senseless

Tbf I agree.

Just posted this on the other thread, but think it's more apt here than trying individualscoring after that. Pretty much know that it wasn't good enough in many areas:
Needs a bit of perspective. Would've been nice to win, but most of those barely any game time and didn't even feature v Wolves let alone Forest. That felt like a preseason game and we could have done with winning to get them more game time. The biggest concern for me now us how are they going to be ready when dome are inevitably called upon to fill in the main 11 at some point soon. Lacking sharpness that only game time can deliver.

DaCosta was absolutely dreadful tonight. Lost the ball virtually every time he had it.
Drysdale has some good attributes but think he may be slower than McFadzean. Looks to have a mistake in him.
As for Reid, I can see why he hasn’t been involved previously. Far from it.
Poor night the only positive being Howley. Did the simple things well although did nothing special. Only 17 as well. Game changed when Shipley missed that sitter.

The fact that DaCosta was one of the better performers in the 2nd half sums our squad up.

DaCosta was terrible. Reid looked out of his depth. Bright showed his ability but looked knackered. Shipley not good enough. Allen did well first half but anonymous second. Walker very similar to most of his performances.
Jodi did well considering but really didn't threaten.

Did he beat his man once? Their left back was brilliant.
Howley was one of the few that could walk off with his head held high. He showed both Shipley and Allen up who were awful but to be fair most of the team were poor from the moment Shipley missed the sitter.

Strange really as Joe Newton was rated as better than Reid by many at the club
But Newton is now playing semi-pro again so maybe the management can't be criticised so far

Yes I heard that too, the club have to back their investment I guess

Agree with all of this. Said on another thread Bright did ok I think. He's getting his fitness up and won't be as explosive as he is capable of but retained the ball quite well and generally I thought worked quite hard. Bit harsh saying he didn't want to be on the pitch.
Really winds me up when people question Brights application on the pitch. Tonight he tracked back all game and tried to make stuff happen. He wasn’t anywhere near his best but has played very little football in the past year. Such an easy thing for people to say that he lacks application but not once has he looked like he doesn’t want to be there

Yep absolutely. Was always in position defensively when Reid needed cover. Don’t think he will start many games this year but what a player to have last 20 minutes in a game. Keeps hold of the ball well.

I made it to this game. Very disappointing obviously.
Plus points for me
Drysdale
Jones
Bright
Most worrying is impact Shipley and Walker had against a level 4 team.
Allen tried and so did Decosta (don't fully understand the absolute negativity against him by some)
New Chelsea loanee stood out as having class. Not sure about Howley having seen him in one game only.
No doubt the second string were found wanting and there were warning signs before half time.

I imagine he wasn't 'dragged off'. He is 17 and 60 minutes is probably a sensible move.

There's a certain portion of the fanbase that just want him to fail which is sad really without giving him a fair chance. After the wolves incident everyone seemed to jump on the bandwagon and assume things. If a few months down the line he lets the club down then fair enough but i say give the lad a chance
Maybe I’m wrong but Drysdale? Made some good challenges but was all over the place for their first goal. Misplaced too many passes and and seems slow.

Yeh I thought in and out of possession Bright played his part, a few times he was played into trouble, but twisted an turned out of it, Shipley is poor, criminal he missed that chance to square it. On that showing Reid is nowhere near league 2 level let alone Championship.

Wilson pretty shite for both goals has to be said
Very high for Drysdale. Thought he was probably our worst player and don’t think he will ever make it with us

Several things I disagree with. Drysdale was terrible. Dacosta worse than Drysdale. Walker scored, had a second ruled out and generally played well on his own up front. Jones was OK nothing special. Doesn't want to run at anybody. I will accept Shipley though who was beyond awful

Not seen the lowlights are paid too much attention to match feed.
Seems from Ratings the only encouraging aspect was Bright.

I wonder if he will read these comments and shush everyone when he scores his 1 goal in the next 30 games.
