Quoted from Chrisblor


We lost through another preventable defensive mistake, had another needless sending off and barely troubled their keeper. Suppose everything's fine if you're happy with that.


And it was Clarke again !!!!!! I've not been convinced by him at all yet very poor the last 3 games

The age of our defence worries me a bit.

To lose 1-0 to a Championship club is nothing to be that disappointed about. However the real lack of any threat up front, a 4th red card and what seemed like giving away alot of silly free kicks are something to be worried about.


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

My god there's some blind optimism on here. Our first team played Derby's reserves tonight.

If we don't sign at least two or three players by the end of the window we're screwed..

It may have been a reserve team, but the majority were still championship quality.

That made me laugh Geir,

Did you mean Dixon got a career ending injury tackling Akinfenwa  ?



Yep.   It can be dangerous tackling Akinfenwa.

Unlike some I was at the game.

Penalty looked a bit soft from where I was sat.

Sending off was a joke. Didn't even look like a foul and a lot worse tackles didn't warrant a card. There seemed to be two sets of rules one for them and a completely different set for us.

We nearly nicked an equaliser at the death when Macca went up and got a free header but put it wide.

They were wasting time at the end against 10 men.

I thought we played good football but didn't have a cutting edge. They didn't either.

I bet virtually every one of their starting eleven would walk into any league two side. They probably are all paid £10kplus a week.

For all that we did ok against them however the lack of firepower is a huge worry. Clarke made a howler for the penalty but generally played well against Chris Martin who has had a good career in Championship, far from the standard we will face in League 2.

Berrett, and I am far from a fan, competed well whist Tom B and Dembele also looked decent.

The one that really got my goat this evening was Ben Davies. For an experienced player his first yellow was pathetic, his show of petulance outweighed how unlucky the 2nd yellow may have been.

Far more encouraged by tonight than some of the doom and gloom merchants on here. Still hope for a loan striker to spark us and give us some firepower as Hooper looks clueless

Wasn't bad at all, we matched a good derby side. Nothing outstanding but we certainly put in a good shift and had some bright moments. Berrett had a good game, Tom B and dembele very good. Would like to see more of DJ, looked bright in the short spell he had on the pitch.

I think we all agree we're lacking a goal scorer and never really looked like scoring (although creating a few good chances.) Maybe play 442 and we might have more luck? You can't really blame the strikers when they're so isolated upfront. Although Hooper sadly looked useless.

Credit where credit is due, if we play with the same attitude Saturday we should get something from the game.
