1) We were poor today. 2) The ref's still a cunt.

im not sure what the rules or procedures are for a coach to make position changes but i have now watched a handful of games and other than being a large body, i have not seen much from simpson as a striker....i played striker and standing and waiting BEHIND a defender is not going to get it done...he doesnt seem to anticipate or create opportunities....McKirdy is hot and cold but he does try to create opportunities....
someone mentioned there isnt anyone on the bench really to replace simpson??? fine put a midfielder in then as a striker...hell williams seems to have a balls out attitude...i would rather see that as a striker than one that just stands and watches most of the time....
the loss is not on Simpson, but goals need to be scored and that is his job....not doing his job in my opinion.....

Need to go back to basics at home, trying to squeeze too many luxury players into the XI that just get in each other’s way. Get Grant in to offer some stability in midfield and help Reed and give us more chance of winning second balls and players like Payne a defined role.

There are 2 worse teams at home than us? I’m surprised.
Well it could be one if ColU win their game in hand. Oldham.

73% possession, We need to wake up. Home attendances are going to start to drop.

After 7 games of varying degrees of shitness, I’m amazed they haven’t already. Fair play to the fans.

Garner: - The goals in first half were the reason - Started well - Gave away very poor first and second goals - First goal knocked us. Don't know why as we are normally resilient - Bradford sat deep and played on the counter. Giving them a 2 goal lead played into their hands - Third was very avoidable - If we'd scored to make it 1-2 then it might have been different# - Cant concede goals like that - Williams and Gladwin: Didnt expect them to be a back 5. Thought it would give us more threat at home - Got into final third a number of times but couldn't open them up - Goals: It wasnt them on top, it was because we didn't deal with it properly - We need to compete alot better than that - Changed shape at 1/2 time. Wanted more threat out wide - Second half performance better. - Pinned them in better and sustained attacks - Surprised at reaction of Williams sub. He's been stop start because of his start to the season. Thought he was tiring. Thought Gilbert would offer a bit more at that time - Wont change the way that he plays or the style. We just need to play this way better - Some times you have to have patience, but you cant be careless and give goals away - No difference between home and away. Last 2 home performances were good. Today's wasn't - Need to keep working and improve.

Not exactly owning the defeat is he, can’t say I agree with much of his assessment but hey Ho.

Are we the biggest sufferers of "ex player syndrome" or does it just feel that way?

Don't agree with Garner at all. We were poor. 72% possession and nothing to show for it is the problem. Soft goals against didn't help but if we hadn't conceded those first two we still wouldn't have won that game. That's the problem, we need to be more attacking at home. Williams was showing some effort, that was the problem for most when he got taken off.

Worst performance of the season so far for me, didn't create anything for note.
