Gone way beyond acceptable now, even with the myriad of genuine reasons JDT can point to. This inability to defend is absolutely embarrassing. 

We've been the better team today and conceded 4 'cos we can't handle long balls into the box. It's insane. Basic, basic defensive skills.

We looked ropey against Cambridge ffs.

Questions need to be asked about the recruitment and transfer fee of LW when we haven't a pot to piss in.

He'd struggle in L2 and no doubt there are L2 goalies who would do far better.

[Aqualung]

Both Bolton and reading games abandoned due to crowd trouble!!!

He hasn't been at fault for any of the goals today - this performance is entirely on the players in front of him. We've lost every aerial duel this match.

Walsall put 3 past us back in August.

Gotta agree - had huge hopes based on supposed reputation - but getting the basics wrong so many times - surely this was evident when he was being scouted ?

i said at the start of the season we should have picked maxwell up when he left blackpool,he`s a steady keeper who`s better than both of ours and he would`nt have cost anything

Eh? They've completely battered us!

[AJW]

How many games is it now we have conceded at least 2 goals ? , you can’t keep needing to score 3 to win a game , JDT has to now swallow his pride a bit and change the way we play

Bolton match due medical emergency in the crowd.

Pitch invasion at Reading protest against owners.

Well JRC might, Gallagher won't make any difference whatsoever.

I’d tend to agree, but since spending a few months watching Ennis and Telalovic, I can’t help but feel he makes a difference to this squad 

[Exiled_Rover]

This ref, with his stupid tattoo, is shocking. 

[scotchrover]

Jesus Christ- it’s embarrassing. 

People calling for a new manager- it won’t make a blind bit of difference with that keeper in the net (or Pears). You could have City’s starting 11 in front of him, and we’d probably struggle.

What is that supposed to mean?

exactly what it is. You said you wanted to hear Travis view. I am happy with what I have read and hear from JDT to see that Travis wanted out twice within a couple of months

Ah yes the infamous argument for keeping Mowbray even though this bloke is a marginal improvement. I thought that might rear its head. 

I am just interested who you are going to appoint to replace JDT. I know who I would appoint if GB and SW sack JDT tonight. I know who my first 3 choices would be.

Better team! 😂 describe “better team”

Sam's lost weight and dyed his hair ...or gone natural. He's at least trying.

Do we scout people? If so, how did we end up with another player not fit enough to play professional football in Ennis?

Lucky sods.

[DackDackGoose]

Bartley should be sent off there, 2nd yellow. Not that it matters, in 20 mins we're going to be reminded how bad gallys first touch is. To spin a positive note i agree with comments on garrett, very surprised how technically good he is, was it mowbray playing him as DM? or youth setup?

[metalrover]

Enough of this shit, i will be plunging deep into depression soon

[simongarnerisgod]

even the most ardent fan must admit the recruitment this season has been truly abysmal

You can't be the better team and concede 4 goals.
