We sounded good before knob-head got himself sent off, I'm sure that Cooper didn't instruct his players to get themselves sent off.
Unfortunately can't see many fans not getting on Cooper's back even though i agree that this result was in no way his fault.

I was in the 'Cooper out' camp before this game. I have more sympathy for him now though. We sounded good before knob-head got himself sent off, I'm sure that Cooper didn't instruct his players to get themselves sent off.

More sympathy after a defeat to a League 2 side? WTF?
Add indiscipline to Cooper's repertoire as well

For those who went tonight, did Barry play well (I've never been impressed when I've seen him) and did Ojama deserve to be taken off?

not going to use it as an excuse for the loss, but 10 men and injuries/suspensions would normally be mitigating circumstances.

don't let the fact this was against the yellow filth cloud judgement

indeed, but it's not just 10 men, it's the missing players.

that said, not sure things would have been different with them available.

Barry in hospital, unsure what happened, header to the back of the head most likely, was knocked out.

Generally teams with 10 men though sit back and defend, leave no space, use a couple of quick players to attempt to hit them on the break and hope to take advantage of set pieces and get something. Or they are so good at passing and creating space they still look like they have 11 men. Last season a sending off at this point wouldn't kill us as we had 65-70% of the ball every game.

However as we cant defend for shit and our so called great passing game has been equally awful we were always fucked when down to 10 men.

Cooper seems to think it wasn't a sending off.  Convinced we would have won the game if Turnbull hadn't gone.

Barry knocked clean out.  Will be staying in hospital.

Bit OTT saying ' the boys have had to put in a hell of shift tonight'.  It's not the first time we've had a player sent off and it certainly won't be the last.

None of the inured players will be back before 4 weeks, some nearer 8.  Oh dear me.
