I forgot that we did make their keeper work, a shot he palmed out after 10 minutes.

Second half the poor lad probably had hypothermia.

You must be having a laugh. He and Fods were the only one trying.

Making comments when not at the game can make you look silly. I was very impressed with Troy today, such a shame he got sent off.

Ward had his best game in a long time, and the thompsons did alright (louie needs to be more sensible playing balls forward though)

Everything else was shit. I'm not 100% sold on Smith if I'm honest - he's started well goalscoring, and if he can keep them up i'll forgive him, but his touch and hold up play was shite today, as it was last week.

Fair enough.  I remain completely unconvinced by him as full back, however.  Not sure what his best position is.

Likewise.

Sub it is then.

Was I alone in thinking Gladwin might be half decent?
He reminded me of a St Bernards puppy - big and enthusiastic and bounced around a lot but lacked direction. Don't see why we've brought him in, he clearly doesn't fit in with the rest of the team or the system(s) we try to play. That's not his fault, though, obviously.

Well the home fans got a taste today of what we have been seeing on the road all season. Garbage.

Worst of the bunch? Barker and Byrne. Totally ineffective. Harley was shite but provided our only decent shot of note.

I really felt sorry for Smith and Ranger, two huge centre forwards but we did not give them any crosses or service what so ever. Byrne simply must be dropped, an awful display with his end product today the worst I have seen here from a winger in years.

Gladwin's most promising cameo to date - I assume Luongo was injured?

Branco is a disaster waiting to happen. Comedy defender.

Troy was superb, and the second was never a yellow.

Wasn't sure what to make of Baldwin. He played a couple of really good passes out to Byrne, but at other times he looked completely lost and lightweight. And he looks a lot like Aden Flint, from the stands at least.

One of the few things that did make me smile today was noticing a poster in the bogs advertising 2014-15 season tickets on sale from 17th Feb. You'll be fucking lucky at the moment.

You can't hold that against him. But yes he does

All been said on here. Think that Cooper is treading on thin ice at the moment he is here by default really and not certain that Mr Power will be happy with the way it is currently going.

Be interested to see that and the reflected matchday ticket prices.

Where has the STFC from earlier in the season gone? We'd of smashed Oldham 4 nil not so long ago.

Going to be interesting what the prices are really and will give us an idication of what to expect going forwards. Even last season they were set by Watkins et al and Jedco kept them, if Power's first meaningful act is a price hike it won't go down well and people will expect a whole lot more!

Assume you mean a price hike? I'd be quite happy if they held them as they are. What worries me rather more is that the season tickets seem to go on sale earlier and earlier every year. Which means we're likely to be even more reliant on matchday revenue next season

Surely nobody is surprised by that shower of shite.

Its been like this for weeks now but the cracks have been papered over by great dollops of luck.

Those fuckers ain't getting £25 more of my money.

Glad you said that...Smith was poor holding the ball and on the few chances when the ball was in the area was no where to be seen.
Where has all the passion gone....hang on a bit...better not go there cos i will get shot down in flames.
