What’s our heaviest ever home defeat at this level?

Last season's 0-5 v Luton..... who were at least quite good.

Looked OK for first 30 or so minutes but never in any danger of scoring then just fell apart completely. And embarrassingly. At least Wellens should now realise the scale of the task he has on his hands. Pleased he brought Twine on up front rather than Richards, may as well at least have a look at the young lad. But a bit puzzled why he waited until we were 4-0 down to switch to 4 at the back. And even more baffled to then hear him on the radio on the way home say we don't have genuine wing backs - so why play 3-5-2 at all in that case? In terms of the "why didn't he play x instead of y", will cut him some slack on that as he basically just went with the team that won last week, doesn't know the players so got to start somewhere I guess, hopefully he'll have learned a lot more about them today and will again next week to start making the changes that need making.

On a much more serious note, might be putting two and two together but Dunne being subbed off due to bad family news and sprinting down the tunnel, hasn't his missus recently had a baby? Thoughts with him and his family, from all of us I would hope.

I thought McGlashan did OK today, although Knoyle might have done better. There was a lot of promise from the overlaps with him and Wolfie.

And then it all just turned to shite.
Wow. McGlashan was dreadful. Comfortably the worst player on the field, followed by Adebayo who offered nothing. Nelson looked like one of the few who cared. & most importantly l hope Dunne's little one is ok. Far more important than any game of football.

I was informed that the players weren't happy with the appointment of doesn't Wellend. Looks like that's true.

Richards was definitely at the York game, was sat in directors box.

Forget who's in charge the squad is not up to it. I'll go Reg and suggest we're fighting to stay up. Be back for the Newport game

I doubt it, she already gave birth a week or two ago.
