I thought this game was going to be close folks but we dominated almost from the start. We seem to single out particular players as an excuse for not winning but the fact of the matter is we can't score goals. Our midfield are not creative enough but are defensive and solid if that was the style we required. For me, we need a CF with a Hately style and at least 2 attacking midfielders who can burst into the box and have a go. We are SO close but just lack some essential qualities to put teams away.

Tactics were bang on last night just the quality and decision making were poor. Very frustrating game. They did defend well and their keeper had a great night, officials got a lot wrong but that's not why we didn't win, we really should have pissed that.

I text my mate last night and told him I think we may be under estimating how good SG actually is. Is it the players that can't implement the game plan? Last 2 games the scores could have been silly if we had that killer touch.

Geared up for some counter attacking football last night but problem is we've got players who can't counter. Need to work on some quick one touch stuff as our players are slower than a week in the jail at getting that ball in the business end. Too many touches!

Lads we look to be struggling to have the capability to have a player run onto a ball and hammer it towards goal from outside the box. Albertz style the MF look out of steam when they get to the edge of the opposition box.
I know Arfield from his time at Burnley and know a bit about the deal he was offered and apparently it was more than he was on at Burnley. The chairman of Burnley Mike Garlic thought he was just about past his best. I like SA would run through a brick wall for the badge.
But, I am not sure he is the player he once was Tav and Bara over the free kicks. I would have liked to see Bara take one or two he puts in some decent balls. Tav needs to step back let someone else’s try.

Couldn't understand gerrards subs. We were dominating the game yet he stuck with 3 def mids? He took grezda off who had whittaker in his back pocket!? Candieas slowed the tempo everytime. He should have took off candieas and coulibaly for middleton and lafferty, with all our domination it would have been more attackingðŸ‘.

Coldco, wrong as you can only use three subs. His first two subs were to replace the injured Arfield and McCauley.

Wrong again jboy, he didn't have to take mccauley off to begin with. that's why its hard to understand his subs.
