To be honest the Leeds 1:1 wasn't a great performance we played embarrassingly defensive. 1:1 at home to Southampton is that spectacular? A win at relegation Huddersfield? Not knocking the run but it wasn't THAT spectacular football. Even the Man U game we were awful first half.

It's not though is it? To get promoted you have to be on it all the while. Likewise let games just pass you by and you will have a serious problem later. Games aren't worth more than 3 points at the end of the season.

What Bassette potentially gives us is a player that makes something happen with his pace. The other one barely mentioned is Tavares. Who came on as a sub and changed a game or two. Unlike Simms.

If we enter the relegation zone it's a game changer, our fans will absolutely lose it and the pressure on Robins and Doug will be enormous.

Robins seems to develop favourites based on personality not necessarily what the team needs. BTA seems to be flavour of the month now and Bassette the reverse. But generally Robin's behaviour around Bassette just seems to show his confusion and panic.

It really isn't. We sold our quality players.

We saw a fighting, hardworking reaction in the Blackburn game after the Leeds embarrassment but it's a different matter to do that week in week out. I think we lack any real quality so we have to choose the best 11 who will most likely fight for it every game.

There's just no real quality in the team despite the big money spent. Recruitment has been really poor in terms of bang for the buck. We are poor all over the pitch.

On the naughty chair.

Football doesn't work like that. If he doesn't stop the total carelessness which costs us, he's blown his chance and has to be yanked.

Great video. No bullshit just determination and team spirit. The Haas guy was a star fanboy, soft spot for Haas now.

A professional player plays 2 games in 3 days and it's Robins fault he's out for 6 weeks apparently. Weird.

It's a bit of a post Spurs game deja vu. Last time we did the obvious, picked the same team and we were poor, and Robins said he shouldn't have. (Mind you one more days rest). The important thing is the players must get into the habit of working hard as a team, with a good team press, tackling...

Kitching had a couple of bad ones and a couple of terrible ones. If they'd have scored it would have been a different game and he'd have been slaughtered. He's had a bit of luck and should get a few games now. Needs to cut that out and any loss of composure. Because it's been a recurrent...

It's down to Kitching to stop terrible lapses that can cost you games. Do that and he could well be a regular.

The best thing is that it was a real team performance. Hard work, pressing, tackling back and a hint of aggression throughout the team. Maybe we now lack a few high quality players. This is how you make up for it.

They've all earned the shirt against Wednesday. I'd give Kitching another game or two but he has to cut out the suicide passes.

He was awful first half with some terrible passes which could have cost us a couple of goals. Some late improvement. Thomas was actually fairly quiet.

Really good team performance. Good press, BTA and EMC worked really hard. Wright showed glimpses of his quality and tackled back. Midfield did well, Sheaf and Eccles both did a job on them and showed grit. Kitching the weakest link tonight. Onwards and upwards.
