The main problem is the defence. If the defence was organised, we wouldn't concede all these silly goals
That’s probably a bit simplistic, I think the CB’s are shaky yes, but I also don’t think we are great defensively in midfield which invites pressure and we play pretty narrow which is allowing teams to easily go down the side. We need to sort the defensive side in general. |

I don't think Ripley is at fault for Oldham's goal, the scorer has a free header from a frere kick that should have never been given. Headers are extremely hard to track for the keeper.

Oldham seem to have started this half better than we have so far.
Have to hit them on the break.

McGregor booked for kicking the ball away as a sub. I’m not sure I’d bring him on today now as he’s a bit of walking yellow so a big risk.

Good claim by Ripley from a deep cross.

It's League 2. I think we've already seen more quality than the norm at this level to be fair |

If Clarke and TWB injured when does Holloway accept Delaney needs to be on the bench.
