That simple chipped ball over the defence is causing us so many problems. And how are we letting them have so much space in and around our box? It's like every player is doing their own thing.

Absolutely right. We aren’t a team, we never are, just a bunch of individuals running around. It’s aimless rubbish. How people cannot see that we are going nowhere under DB I do not know. This is no better than we were at the weekend but we aren’t getting out of jail in this one, like we did Saturday.

 

[OUFCwaffle]

WE put ourselves under pressure by taking an age to make a decision when on the ball

 

[Leysboy]

f*****g crap

I’m looking at the bench, and thinking why is the manager not making changes and being proactive. Whatever the plan is/was isn’t working, in fact I can’t see a plan at all.

Cumming needs a f*****g rocket! Stevens sucked into a central area, that gave Ogbeta the space. In fact it should of been dealt with before the ball got across the pitch.

We just look poor, and some players just going through the motions. Dreadful watch yet again.

We need to sack this clown in charge, and return him to 3rd world football.

 

[holdsteady]

And people wonder why there’s no atmosphere…answer, the football is f*****g shite

Our fans must have been absolutely silent tonight for us to this shite, that’s how it works isn’t it?

 

[Sarge]

this bunch of jokers need a rocket up their arses at half time

 

[Yello]

What an absolute shambles of a half ! Absolutely embarrassing. The players and management should be ashamed of that. Totally feel for the poor sods that have travelled up to witness that. They are certainly owed a reaction in the second half.

 

[Cass63]

This is bloody awful, even the commentators are saying how s**t we are

 

[ZeroTheHero]

f*****g backwards again! Is there a new rule that you aren't allowed to attack unless the keeper starts the move? I'd love to hear from some of the more positive posters at half time because I really cannot see anything at all that we are doing well and need cheering up!

 

[uptheus]

Do we need to send Cumming back?

Yes

 

[WuTang]

We play in front of teams, it's so easy to defend. Harris is good at running the channels and yet we never play it in behind opposition defences. We need to ask more questions of teams, not every goal is going to come after 30 passes. Mix it up a bit.

Never play direct, never play the channels for Harris, never have anyone who can hold it up when Goodwin is benched. As you say, play slow tempo possession with their 11 men behind the ball, get pressed, pass back to Cumming, hoof it up and lose it because we can't hold the ball up.

Rinse and repeat

 

[bert]

Look at that. Possession in their half - no penetration - ball ends up with Cumming.

 

[Pgyellow]

And bin the blue kit!!

 

[joecook]

Des, please can we play like we did against Pompey in the second half?

 

[IsleofWightYellow]

When we have the ball and Bolton do the slightest press on us we panic massively

 

[Deanroger]

They severely need a massive rollicking at half

 

[Mad Dog]

I’d sack him tonight.

Tactical dinosaur playing against this 352 in a 4231.

So much pace down both sides.

Feel sorry for Leigh & Stevens.

I feel sorry for the poor sods who have actually travelled all the way to watch this amateur bullshit.

 

[holdsteady]

This actually looks like they are a couple of divisions above us.

 

[Sarge]

THAT was a poor first half

 

[Daviddidcotexile]

Absolutely clueless

 

[Swaby39]

A flattering scoreline yet again. Atrocious.
