After watching that, I'm genuinely worried!..
Out battled, out thought, out Grimsby'd...
Our league form is terrible and doesn't look like changing anytime soon. One decent win, what is it now, last 9 games, 6 losses or something like that?.
Take the cup run out of this,  the league form is relegation form and for that fact Hurst has to be questioned, surely?.

Real lack of fight and professionalism. Just grind out a point. Did the hard work, got back in the game, threw it away. 5 at the back and we were defensively woeful.

After scoring we didnt know what we were doing. Should we attack, do we sit back? Infuriating

Stockwoods tweet was stupid at the time after the Crewe match, its made him look a bit of a mammary currently

Of course he should be questioned but the reality is his job is safe as houses, I’m not anti hurst but these results aren’t good enough.  I didn’t expect to walk the league I expected mid table but that’s starting to looks unlikely

It was a shocking performance. Think they'd only scored 7 goals at home all season hadn't they? Step up town...

I said this at the end of the transfer window, the problem isn't the quality of players brought in, it's our complete lack of balance. We have no one up front who can hold the ball up. No wingers. We're essentially having to play 5 at the back because we have no other options but it really doesn't work against route one teams.

Hopefully we can pick up some points over the next 2-3 games but if we don't, Hurst's position surely must be up for review. We're sleep walking into a relegation battle.

Efete and Maher switch off for the first, every fornicator headless chickens for the second. We looked pretty solid with 5 at the back before tonight. Wing backs, minus Glennon's cross for the goal were woeful and Glennon should have had an early bath for a wreckless lunge. Lloyd, who I thought was industrious in the first half, looked lost in the second. I don't think McAtee understands his role, though he did come close to scoring first half. Green was missed.

Well we’ve got 2 wingers in Wearne and Scanell who cant get a look in atm. Not sure why we’ve brought the former back and extended the latters deal if we arent going to give them a crack

On a positive note, there will be plenty of Southampton tickets that make it to general sale. We are in trouble, Harrogate looks the only winnable game this month but we all know what our home form is like. UTM

Right now there’s real lack of cohesion and purpose. Particularly between our midfield and attack.

No one can come out with much credit over the last couple of games but I would say that McAtee is looking a million miles off a Championship player and not doing much in the no.10 role. That said, we were poor across the whole pitch again tonight.

They are fit but not match fit

Wearne is, or should be, he’s come back from being on loan
