Let's hope Smith get's well soon! He looked decent...anyone know how long he's out or what's wrong with him?

What a pair of fucking shit goals to concede! Why didn't jmac header it instead of letting Hume get there first! Pathetic!

Sorry to say but Kasim was responsible for the first goal. The highlights don't show it. Tbf his reaction showed he knew this too.

Even as someone who hasn't been often yet this season, it's clear to see that something needs to change at the back.  The second goal, in particular, showed that the communication/understanding between the keeper and his defenders is not there.

If we carry on conceding at the current rate, we are on course to concede 66 goals this season.  Last season, we conceded 39.  Even when you consider that we have had a tough opening two months, that is a frightening statistic that needs to be remedied.

I lost count today of the number of times it went back an forth across the back four without going anywhere, eventually it went back to Wes who had to lump it.....Wes becomes the out ball when the defenders are under pressure and this means he is under pressure as he gets ever more ridiculous back passes to deal with, often on his wrong foot!
Good point

I think JMac's ridiculous backpass was a symptom of what you say - Wes would have had to half volley a clearance or take a touch of a bouncing ball on his own goal line at best. 

JMac's responsibility but not sure what Wes was doing sprinting off his line either

Don't know if we've got too precious to coach defenders in  the merits of "Row z" and "Get yer head in"

Interesting stat on the 66 goals by Ardiles too - fairly clear where the problem is now that Williams is no longer our lone target man.

Maybe he was responsible earlier in the move
It was JMc on the 3yd line trying to kick a ball that wanted heading

He made no attempt to go up and challenge for the ball  Roll Eyes

Just watched the highlights. Looked a possible penalty for us on our last attack. A point would have been welcome, if undeserved.

A player who get's a lot of stick is Grant Hall, I think he's alright but clearly lacks experience...

I'm wondering how good Branco is....also same goes for Belford...I wonder if either will get the nod against Plymouth...we've never been a team who have used their back up goalkeepers...Jesionkowsi, Scott, Bedwell etc..

Anyone else notice that after we scored our goal their keeper took down whoever our number 33 is? Looks like he punched him in the crotch! That's a fucking red card if ever I've see one...

It's the traditional scapegoat player though isn't it. JMc should have challenged better but it should have never got that far! We get carved apart on the right but apparently the only person to blame is the left back.

McEvely did bad for both goals, I don't think he was aware of Hume, hence thinking he could kick it. I thought Wes could probably have got to the backpass though, makes a right hash of trying to clear it off the line!

Our defence is the weakest part, I don't think Wes has been as commanding, and I still can't see a solid understanding between Ward and Hall.

Nice goal by Dany. Hope Thompson isn't out long, he's great.

The problem with the defence yesterday was that as Kasim and Luongo were being marked out the game they had no outlet so we ended up giving it back to Preston.
