Dovin prevented that being 2-0. Great decision to come out.

Some people have no clue. He did really well

It's a top 6 deck according to the owner

STOP IT... HE NEVER SAID WHAT LEAGUE.

A deck with a lot of Jokers in it.

 

[mark82]

We miss Mason-Clark

 

[steve101]

We have had some woeful whole team performances this season but this is right up there. Torp looks like he has never played football before. Van Erwijk shocking again. Sheaf and Eccles still hungover.
Sakamoto yet to touch the ball.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Where is the tactical nous to overcome a team that's set up to stop you passing it? Is it the same as Sunday where there was nothing bar telegraphed changes.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Just a continuation of what was being served up before

So it was worth ripping apart the entire back room staff then for that?

 

[Nick]

Need to 2 foot all the players during half time

 

[skybluegod]

I really don't know what is going on with Sheaf. With the exception of Plymouth he has been pedestrian and anonymous all season.

 

[Cally Fedora]

Dreadful stuff so far. Defence the normal shambles but even they are being outdone by Eccles and Sheaf - totally pedestrian. And Torp. Keep trying to see something but he’s just not up to it.

 

[robbiekeane]

bidwell and simms only players who’ve turned up today

 

[jto123]

I’m sorry but our midfield provide nothing. Poor at passing, no attacking threat and can’t protect the defence. How have we spent so badly??

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

Get rapha and tavares on and Simms and b bassette up front

I can't understand why Taveres hasn't been given any game time. Sakamoto hasn't touched the ball yet

 

[shmmeee]

We’ve got worse. I really wouldn’t give Lampard any cash to spend. I’d be tempted to cut our losses and go for another appointment at the moment.

 

[Great_Expectations]

Am I allowed to ask what the Elite Tactician will do about this?

Or does that mean I’m anti Lampard, anti King and still in love with Robins?

Second game, where we are a third in and it’s clear whatever the hell the plan is, it’s not working.

 

[Evo1883]

Plenty of time to sort this out , problem is the players don't look like they know what they're supposed to be doing

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

There’s no energy in this team.

 

[CovveeBreak]

Ok. I'm a glass half full sorta guy, always have been.

And I'm finally on the "sack the lot of them" side of the fence. Astonishing how bad we look here.

I don't believe there isn't talent here, but on the whole the mental fortitude of a 2 legged shrew.

Players we talk about bank rolling our future like Sheaf and MVE some of the worst on the pitch.

 

[chiefdave]

I'm not one to be shouting 'forwards' all the time but I don't get why when we start putting teams under pressure we play it back and then slow things down knocking it about in the defence.

If you go back surely the idea is to switch sides or find another route forward. Not knock it about a bit and then gift them the ball.

 

[mark82]

Decent effort by Eccles.

 

[Captain Dart]

Is Saka actually playing?

 

[Ccfcisparks]

bidwell and simms only players who’ve turned up today

Simms has been shite

 

[Briles]

Cardiff just want it far more

 

[lord_garrincha]

Is Saka actually playing?

Been a spectator for over a month now.

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

There's bad and there's bad and this is bad bad!

 

[Nick]

We give away so many shit fouls

 

[Chris1987]

So it was worth ripping apart the entire back room staff then for that?

The same backroom staff who put us on this situation to start with ?

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Decent effort from Eccles but our defence looks awful

 

[Nick]

Been a spectator for over a month now.

Get rapha on

 

[Frostie]

Need to 2 foot all the players during half time

Ours or theirs?

 

[wingy]

We have nobody even close to being a leader or example setter

Possibly Bidwell

 

[stupot07]

We miss Mason-Clark

We miss Haji Wright

 

[hill83]

Longest half an hour of my life this

 

[Jamesimus]

Simms has been shite

He’s been okay. Had a good first 10. And then that lay off for Torp was good.

 

[Winny the Bish]

Midfield and defence full of players who can't play under any sort of pressure. As soon as we get into midfield they turn around and come straight back.
