He maybe but he’s a boring fart

He's a manager that knows how to win KR knows how to talk

Fergie time in Wycombe

I think if it were any less the ref would have been embarrassed

I think ainsworth is a manager who knows how to work with what he's got. Couldn't watch it every week but it appears to get results.

Another poor effort to today. KR you need to be more adaptable to these kind of teams, otherwise it will always be the same outcome.

Wycombe aren’t anything special, but they do what they do, and it’s effective, and they are good at it. We don’t have the players to combat this. You need to address this team, and teach them some of the shithousery needed at times.

We need to bring in some Robust tough players, that can play in these kind of games. You have to do what you have to do to get out of this division. Mr Bakrie, and Mr Thohir won’t give you unlimited time in the hot seat.

Wycombe are very good at what they do. They don't care that it's not pretty - and why should they?

We might have been found out. 3 games now where we can't take our chances and can't break down teams who have taken the lead against us.

Please go shopping Karl, quickly.

Absolutely dire. Have a good weekend everyone.

They're horrible to watch but there's no way around it - and most people said it before the game too - Wycombe are damn good at what they do and getting anything out of this game without Kane and with Taylor's dip in form was always going to be a huge ask.

Brush ourselves down, back the boys and let them know we still believe, and get a result against the owls in front of a huge crowd.

 

[unification]

Not a surprise at all. One team performed better than the other.

We’re looking exposed now. Whilst at previous points in the season if we lost a player we had replacements to at least deal with it. Right now we don’t. No Gorrin, no Kane, no meaningful backup options to Taylor and some who just aren’t getting a look in (what’s the point of Bodin?). The worrying thing is that we’re not relying on replacements in the next two weeks (and getting Kane back) as we’re looking very light.

We’re too soft as well. Cheltenham, Cambridge and Wycombe have exposed it. Really good teams can adapt and find a way. KR doesn’t have that in his locker at present.

A bit of a shake up is needed to get this back on track or else it could well end in a campaign that doesn’t end with the playoffs. That would be a major disappointment.

 

[Concretebob]

Garbage that was.

 

[Orkney Islands Yellow]

Where's our next point coming from?

Tough period coming up

 

[Jolteon]

Are they really launching fireworks...? Wycombe are the most tinpot side in the EFL

 

[MiddleBartonYellow]

Could see this coming to be honest. We are short. To be blunt are some of these players that Championship clubs are supposed to be chasing really good enough. Maybe a bit harsh but true I think. Some of our fans slag off Wycombe but they are as tough as old boots.

This is Robbo you’re talking about, may get in a crock after the Gillingham game

Possibly Gillingham but not guaranteed though.

 

[oufc1991]

Not good enough time for signings or we will be league one next season this month was so important we could have made signing early got points on board ( maybe ) and consolidated are place in top 6 but we've lost 2 drawn 1 and imo been poor in all 3 games
Roll on Sheffield Wednesday next week

Theyve just won their cup final. Bless them.

 

[IsleofWightYellow]

I thought that was a better performance than against Lincoln to be honest - against a better team and we created chances. Still very disappointing obviously. But unarguably better overall than against Lincoln for me.

I certainly think the pressure is on Karl now. After two consecutive play-off finishes, and us going well so far this campaign, the owners might see this as the minimum expectation rather than us overachieving.

With the money they've already put in, and the investment they're putting in with the stadium, results and performances like the ones we've had of late won't cut it. Adaptability has never been Karl's strong point, and he has to keep his fingers crossed his blood, guts and thunder way of playing works out more often than not in the season's remaining games.

If we're going to get out of this division we have to be smarter with our squad-building and the way we play against organised opposition.

 

[BrockBuster]

Meh. Nice rivalry brewing with Wycombe now, would have been a different game had Holland taken that chance but conceded goals at awful times.

We really are capable of playing some great stuff but against physical sides we still have that soft underbelly. The lack of any real alternatives to Taylor and hit and miss players across the midfield of the likes of Holland, McGuane, Sykes, Henry and (whisper it) Brannagan just tends to mean we're at best a play-off side.
