Absolutely bang on, we’ve regressed an unbelievable amount so far this season.

Mate, I get supporting players and that but we didn't pay £8m (and the rest) for someone to chase dead balls down the wing and walk back to the half way line

What we weren't was in control. Huddersfield were by far the more threatening team after the break.

1 win since August and 2 shots on target will do that

Have to say it was lovely to see Jamie Allen back playing football

I think Ogrizovic is usually a good voice for the club but I think he’s been talking some absolute bollocks tonight. Only so many times you can shout the word “gel” at the team.

Not sure what the fans were meant to do when everybody could see they were getting into the game but seemingly robins didn't.
Then he just made his textbook subs that he would have made at 4-0 up.
It was awful. The fans have done their bit, we have spent about 20 million or whatever and we were holding onto a one nil at home against Huddersfield.
Then we subbed the wing backs off who were having a decent game.

Didn't matter 2 years ago. The atmosphere was constant and benefited the team.

If only we had £17m in our pocket to get one. That would have been nice.

It was non-stop 2 years ago regardless of the score. Dragged us into wins.

Ellis Simms unleashed a ferocious effort which was tipped onto the bar by Lee Nicholls and came off Ayari and went into the back of the net.
Ben Wilson produced some fine saves in the second half to help secure the points and keep a third clean sheet of the season.
Quality reporting from the club

Would you trust Robins and co spending £10m?
Running the risk of sounding alarmist, but we're in a spot of bother here. The spine of the team.consists of Fadz, Eccles, Kelly, Allen and Godden. Fond of all of them, but that's basically our League One side from a few years ago.
The squad we have at our disposal doesn't get any better for another 6 games or so either. This could get very rough.

Think I might start work on my “Bring Back The Box” banners for the next game.

When the subs were brought on.
Huddersfield were well on top and should have scored, but when we brought Wright and Allen on, it changed the game and we took the control back.

City almost wrapped up all three points three minutes from time, but Lee Nicholls produced a stunning save to keep out Bobby Thomas.
However, Ayari’s first goal for the Club would prove to be enough, as City got back to winning ways against the Terriers.
But, late in the day, the Terriers levelled the game.

You can see they are giving 100%, they’re just not good enough.

We hadn't just spent 20m on a couple of strikers and centre halves while starting games with Eccles and Kelly in the middle.
It's ok though, we spent 5m on the centre half to be on the bench.

As we've seen it's perfectly possible to get brilliant players in for £1m. We've had our pants pulled down in the market this year.

But you are disrespecting them. Kelly's performance as a holding midfielder tonight was seriously good IMO. The team shape isn't working, the balance isn't right, but that shouldn't detract from the way he did his specific job.

The ones where we had just played 2 holding midfielders at home to draw with forest green?

No mate, not a joke. An opinion. Get over it if yours differs.
Down the channels Simms looked quicker and keener when he came on, I thought. Simms was probably tiring by then in fairness.
I'm interested in your genius though mate, you're of the opinion that Simms is a striker that doesn't need to work and run the channels perhaps. That's a new one to me, and you might want to look again at what happened just before he got his shot in tonight. Are you sure you're not having a joke?
As for Godden, he's the only one scoring and he's not a six foot target man. In my opinion the people you want holding up the ball and causing defenders problems are Simms and Wright; the person you want in front of goal is Godden.
