Giles putting the ball in where we need it but lack of quality players to finish.

And to all the people twatsplaining to me why we didn't sign a striker on deadline day - this is exacty why we fucking need one.

[yankfan]

Our attack in the run of play when we’re not on the counter is very simple and predictable 

[bluebruce]

So we need Giles to cross it to BBD, and as I'm saying that, Giles' corner is taken short to BBD, who crosses it in....right.

Why is JRC playing up front!!!!!!!

Because we didn't buy a striker 

[bluebruce]

You usually just know when it's not your night, and it isn't.

[skous18]

Can someone please show statistics for crossings today. This was painful to watch

[Tom]

‘Chance fell to the wrong man’

Yeah because for some reason our only striker is out at the corner flag 

[Cherry Blue]

This performance shows why we won't be going up.

[Darrenbot]

Well the usual Mowbray February death spiral in full effect,just hope we're still in the top 6 at the end of the month.

[davulsukur]

Tommy K what a hero

[duckson]

Play offs at best, let’s hope we even get that. 

[Adam C]

Ryan Giles is unreal putting those crosses in. Brilliant debut, what a left foot. 

[Exiled_Rover]

They've had one shot on target and scored it.

We've now missed four sitters. Bloody hell. 

[Tom]

46 crosses to 1 - they scored from theirs

Some of Giles crossing in the box have been brilliant but no one's sticking their head on them.

Playing to that striker that we didn't need ...beggars belief , actually get somebody in who can cross but have nobody to cross to

46 crosses according to Sky

[Tormund]

They’ve had one attack all game, sums it up. 

[bluebruce]

The camera angle they used on the replay showed two CBs on the end of that cross. I've no idea where Diaz was, but we are doing nothing to ensure he gets any of our chances.

Very optimistic about seeing more of Giles going forward. Already looking the best crosser we have had in years.

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Why no kaminiski up for that?

Don't let anyone say we have enough up top.  We haven't. End of. 

[benhben]

Massive blow. These are the sort of games promotion chasing teams have to win without question. 

Still can't believe the Buckley open net miss

"We don't play with strikers."

[Mr. E]

Everything imaginable went wrong today. 

Mowbray first of all by not starting with a striker. That killed our game more than anything else today.

The defence fell asleep for 1 attack, but that was enough. Swansea didn't even dream about going forward again for the rest of the game.

Two absurd misses on our part, and other than the last 15 minutes very sloppy play with lack of urgency.

Any other day we are winning today 5-0.

We need to find our grit again.
