Indeed!

Our owners and Waggott don't deserve such commitment and loyalty.

Often think only an ongoing mass boycott will have any impact.

Yes he played last night but they pulled bucko from that game they should be playing gilsenan now ffs

[Bethnal]

Interesting approach from Carabao: make an advert so bad that people are encouraged to pour your product into their eyes and ears so as not to hear or see it.

Certainly not drinking the stuff, anyway.

[Paul Mellelieu]

What the actually are they doing with the lighting?

As if our players aren't confused enough, they start switching the lights on and off!

Yep great turnout

[booth]

For those not watching, just to annoy you, we just played it out from the back.

We've had to sell a whole host of players just to keep the lights on.

Meanwhile Cardiff don't give one about their electricity bill.

[booth]

We're going forward in a decent position. Ayari fouled, possibly injured. Referee does fuck all.

[davulsukur]

Szmodics looming like he'll need to come off.

[Paul Mellelieu]

Very poor start.

[superniko]

We absolutely honk

[booth]

Wharton playing a bizarre pass backwards. I can't fathom what that was about.

[superniko]

Their lad just had a free header from about 8 yards out on a corner. 
I thought we’re meant to be ‘going back to basics’, ‘more solid at the back’ etc etc. 

We’re just regressing more and more every time I watch us.

Behind him were 2 more unmarked at back post 🫣

[Bethnal]

Well, this is a difficult watch. No fluency from either side. All the energy/atmosphere of a pre-season friendly.

Players are so far off it. Awful distribution and retention of the ball.

Away on a cold Tuesday night in Cardiff, maybe a point is fine, maybe we’re set up to test our resolve to earn a point. A few players look like they don’t fancy it (again).

Very little forward ambition, save from the usual suspects trying to drag us forward.

I don’t really know what I’m watching, I don’t understand what the players are trying to achieve.

[Miker]

Haven't watched us in a while, but wow we have regressed badly. Don't remember us in such complete disarray, and I've seen us play some really poor games.

Wharton has misplaced his pass about 10 times already.

[Trinidad Rover]

Our squad isn’t very good. Relative to the last few seasons….crikey.

we are in a state of transition tbf,eustace wants us to tighten up and he`s not really working on any attacking style

i can confidently state though,that ayari is absolutely useless

Compared to this Cardiff side we’ve got gold

[TugaysMarlboro]

Eustace coming across the same problem JDT did. The squad as a whole isn't good enough.

Wanted to be clear that the criticism is of the players, as I’m confident Eustace won’t be looking for what they’re currently serving up.

I just don’t understand how the players’ technical abilities are this bad, across the board, in this game.

Gonna reserve criticism of Ayari. He’s positive in his play, which a lot of players currently aren’t.

[Exiled_Rover]

Fair play to these Cardiff commentators, they've at least done their homework.
