Moran at fault for both goals. He’s really not the Irish Foden. He’s absolutely fucking bang average and won’t have a career above championship level.

pears was at fault for the first goal but i agree about moran ,he`s a little boy playing in mens football

[Bethnal]

Swansea can put this to bed, here. One more and they’re out of sight and can rotate some minutes on/save some legs.

We’ve got to pull at least one back this half if we have any desire of coming away with much-needed points.

[Ghost7]

Moran has never been ready.

Scott Wharton had to bypass them then to get something working. I like Scott, but even he would admit that we shouldn’t be relying on him to get the ball to the forwards.

Imagine being in a team with those 2 as your midfield enforcers, creators and tempo setters. Laughable.

[DE.]

Are people genuinely surprised by this? It's exactly what I expected to happen. Not because of "tired legs" but because cup matches are total one offs and these players have largely only ever shown themselves to perform when there's no pressure and we're the underdogs. Going all the way back to Bowyer's time. 

Culture at the club is rotten and it seeps into everything. One cup match changes nothing unfortunately.

Gallagher is such a donkey.

Zero chance he was going to beat 3 defenders, but has an easy pass to Brittain in space. Instead he has his head down, zero awareness, and in the end is only slightly saved by the fact that the ball somehow found its way to Brittain.

And instantly 2-0 down. Giving the ball away in midfield cheaply. Inability to close down yet again and I'm not entirely sure how to describe what Pears has just done. 

As I've repeatedly said about Gallagher - hell of an athlete, but he's never a footballer.

The manager they apparently lost confidence in has gone. The support they so desperately wanted from the fans (which they've always had imo) has been there both home and away and this is what they dish up.

What more do you want lads?

[moerpho]

I give up. Feel really bad for those who travelled.

Moran with the mistake to allow the cross and then literally just walked back as the Swansea player carried the ball into the box. He’s at fault for that goal for me tbf.

[CambridgeRover]

A.Wharton and Tronstad to Moran and Buckely

[booth]

More poor decision making from Brittain in the final third.

Come 14th every year, get your 5 to 15k a week.  Dine out in Manchester with your wag and go home to your pug. 

 

Like most at ewood, don't rock the boat - it's a cushy number 

[Sparks Rover]

Fuck me, quelle suprise,  Bucko back in and the midfield is weak as piss

I think that's very generous.

He's relatively big and strong, but he doesn't have a ton of pace. He's the level of athlete you would genuinely expect in the Championship.

eustace finding out about his team and who needs to **** off for next season,unfortunately he won`t be able to replace who he wants to get rid off due to our rancid owners

There are a few that you can see work their socks off and find the quality within themselves regularly, but there are a good few more than that who aren’t. You can forgive a lack of talent, you can’t forgive lack of effort/fight.

[yellowsubmarine]

Kind of expecting this. We are so screwed.

Why do you blame Buckley and not Moran ?

[Eddie]

Sell Pears.

Let's hope that someone watched that cup game and thought that he was Premier League quality.

Get rid ASAP.

[Roverthechimp]

Moran is not a cm - Garrett should be playing today

[dallydally]

Just shows how poor Newcastle were the other night!

[Neal]

No plan B after conceding the first, 11 men behind the ball, no high press trying to get back into the game. Not that they're better than us just shit tactics, shit mentality, shit preparation and shit performance. 

 

Disgrace the lot of them on and off the pitch.

For me it’s been on Moran more so than Buckley today but both have struggled in there. Moran off at HT

[TugaysMarlboro]

Pears is a semi decent shot stopper, that's it.

Yeh, new manager is useless - he has had a full pre-season and not had his first choice midfield sold or injured.
