For me Gueye is a sub, a battering ram to bring on against weary defenders, problem is where does the talisman come from? I can’t see us even being linked with anyone to fit the bill

He had a tap in today had Cantwell done the basics of staying onside

Truth is he was ok, not great not terrible but it’s become a thing, some of us defend him to the point it’s OTT and some clearly are overly critical to the point it’s clearly OTT as well, today though to a neutral he’d be far from the first person to be called out for any criticism Truth is he was barely a talking point either way today other than a question on the set up, he did his job winning the first ball but we didn’t have anyone within a decent distance to follow up

Leeds conceded in last minute again today I think they may miss out

We are still in really good stead, win our game in hand and we’d be in 5th, most of us would have taken that in a heartbeat pre season. Not going to pretend losing to them doesn’t sting but it’s out of the way now and we focus on the remaining 23 or so games and hope we aren’t far off come May

Yes Cantwell was lazily stood way offside, it was needless as well as he would have likely been in still if he timed it

He’s obviously not good enough to be a one man match winner and I tend to think his best use is from the bench but not sure he could have done much more today, won some great headers but the number 10 was too deep to pick up on them

You don’t need an excuse when you are winning and top 2 sadly They aren’t a patch on their last promotion team but they’ll get there most likely 😞

It’s the controllables that we failed with that’s the most frustrating. 7 first half corners and not a sniff of a chance is shocking, Beck and Cantwell managed to mess up nearly every single one.

Where there fliers or anything on the seats trying to entice people back?

Yet more effective than others, we see what we want to see at times

He’s an absolute waste man, get rid by any means possible, absolutely robbing a living for years

Come on someone out there be a hero, these are a decent team but nothing too special

Bloody hell I can’t believe I’m seeing Gueye taking any blame for this, he’s had nothing to work with but actually won the balls he’s had a chance to, Cantwell has been diabolical and it’s through him it’s all breaking down

A huge blow in a game that didn’t have much in it, Cantwell holds his line 5 minutes ago and it’s a different story

Yep but you can still keep the pressure on not just turn away

See that ball from Gueye was too heavy for Cantwell but he just gave up on it, really poor, if he’s not fit get him off

Beck, Cantwell and ACD in particular so poor so far.

The problem is I think we’ve been trying to be clever like arsenal but too smart for our own good

No shots either way yet? They’ve got a foothold on possession but we’ve had a good number of set pieces but not making the most Edit another absolute stinker of a corner

Cantwell first in the book nailed on here

Wasteful free kick and then ACD losing it easily again leading to a counter attack, he needs to watch that it cost us last time out

Ewood looks amazing in its full glory

Not sure I would have gone with ACD over Hedges in this one - but then again I always question what Hedges brings in an attacking sense. Police en masse around St Bede’s using the top car park as a base - hope it goes without incident and we get those 3 points

Not even subtle now are they?
