Any chance we can recall Duru?

I did say I wouldn't have sent him out yet.

Sanderson will be starting the next few games, we'd better hope he's up to it. Litherland too, who might need to be brought on at some point.

[RevidgeBlue]

Injuries tend to increase exponentially the worse a side does.

Cantwell and ACD down that left hand side are shocking.  I fancy my chances down that side Vs them two.  I've had self check outs stop me pass harder than those two 

[yankfan]

Would have been better off running out the U20s today. JRC can hardly move out there

Cantwell is such a soft twat

Expand  

Time to add him to the list. Been extremely average since he arrived. Reputation bought him a bitta grace.

We were as bad for it under JDT. I assumed it was training then, but I now assume we just have an injury-prone squad.

Expand  

We’ve got a small squad and don’t rest players when they require it.

Bad news about JRC.
 

He’s alright.

Expand  

He's not. He's hobbling - he can't run.

No need to panic. Just Bristol city away - the scene of our most gutless performance in recent years.

Wish we had the luxury of sending ACD back but we have nobody, the season is going to end up in a second half slog again which is so frustrating and avoidable but seemingly all in the design

Yeah, I’ve noticed that. “Well, this calf strain was very manageable when we were winning six on the bounce, but it is quite sore now we’ve one win in seven and are two down at home.”

[RevidgeBlue]

Just to cap the evening off, Nobbers are letting me down for £572 from a £2.70 stake on an acca. 

[LDRover]

Really poor is this. Too many players shirking and hiding with only Gueye and Beck sticking their heads above the parapet.

Cantwell should be lording it in games like this but has retreated deeper than an Italian tank. JRC is shit scared of the ball a d you get the usual shit from Hedges and fizzy pop Dolan.

However, I reserve special ire for John Buckley. Tonight he has the perfect stage to show what he's all about and absolutely dials one in and hides all game. Utterly pathetic, the lad needs shipping out now, his attitude stinks.

[Forever Blue]

We’re still in the play offs which is a minor miracle.

If Aasgaard somehow came here, Cantwell would either have to up his game or sit on the bench.

[yankfan]

That ball switching the field from Forsaw was absolutely terrible

Isn’t that normal for him?

[bluebruce]

Can't remember if I posted it, but I said making all the subs with 30+ minutes left was a mistake. And now we have JRC hobbling around, worsening whatever injury he just picked up. Adrenaline is clearly getting him through it, nice ball from him to Gueye there, but I'd be surprised if he's not out for weeks after this.

Cantwell deserves to be on the bench - again though sadly we have no other options 

[Trinidad Rover]

Sanderson has looked decent in his two appearances.

Looks like he’s remotely interested too

It certainly seems like we usually get them during morale-sapping defeats, just to make things even worse.

[Gamst]

I’m guessing we won’t have signed anyone prior to our match on Saturday. This is simple sabotage. They haven’t a hope in hell out there. If Eustace is as furious as me then he’ll be desperately searching for a new job.

That's simply unfair. 

They're all working their socks off, there's just 4 or 5 out there that simply aren't good enough for this level. 

Cantwell is being asked to play CM by the way. 

[Tom]

Holy shit - just noticed Weimann is on the pitch I had no idea

Glued to the left for most of the second half. When we break it takes him a minute to decide to join in.
