      Certainley Powell was man of the match today, once he is fully fit I think we will see good things from him. That is if he is still here after the January window, as I can see him, Grigg and Wildshutt leaving as we start to prepare for life in League One again.

        Lost to yet ANOTHER individual mistake. Doesn’t matter who the gaffer is if we keep gifting sides goals.

        Was that Jacobs getting easily dispossessed thus putting us on the back foot, the back line for not closing down for the shot, the poor goal keeping or the lack of reaction apart from the goal scorer after the keepers howler?

          I think it was Bogdans fault for getting injured and having to go back to Liverpool.

            If you set up for a 0-0 at home then expect to get your pocket picked now and again!

              Problem is Phil, it’s not now and again, its nearly every blasted week this season. I know things are bad at the moment, but at least the boring tippy tappy crap of previous seasons looks to be being given the boot.

                I can’t really see how we supposedly set up for draw when you have a starting line up including Jacobs Wildschutt Powell Jacobs Gomez and Grigg.

                  If you saw any surging runs or positive defence splitting passes from the above then you were watching a different game to me ! Huddersfield were poor today yet we didn’t test their keeper at all !

                    Takes some tactical genius to include all those and avoid having a shot at goal.

                    I don’t believe the players are as bad as some think. Some other manager would surely get a better return from them.

                      I didn’t say I saw any of it. But if you was setting your team up for a draw you wouldn’t include that lot in the same team. Sometimes it isn’t actually down to the manager. You pick those players to create. Not settle for a draw. Maybe it’s down to the players not doing the job they were picked for rather than negative intent by the manager.

                        Seems crazy that with such a positive line up why Grigg was all over the Wigan half searching for the ball. No midfielder played any decent killer balls out wide or to Grigg and none of the midfield could break out of the midfield and pressurise the Terriers defence. All too slow and static. Saying that Powell did work hard and hopefully if there isn’t a fire sale he could make a difference.

                          Well yes, several errors but all errors none the less. We haven’t been carved apart or battered by sides, we have gifted them goals. Joyce can’t be blamed for that.

                            We seemed to play today with one up front, with Grigg playing off the front man, hence him being all over the place. It was probably done like that with Powell and Wildshutt swapping all the time to try to confuse the Huddersfield defence, it however, seemed to confuse ourselves more.

                            I reckon if we played players in their best positions it might just click. Wildshutt on the left, Grigg up front, with Powell playing off him and Jacobs, or preferably someone better on the right.

                            Widshutt and A N Other can swap wings if necessary to mix it up a bit.

                              Don’t be silly horc playing players in there correct position. That would never work.

                                Grigg is a nancy and cant upset a centre back defence starts from upfront but not with nancyboy upfront??

                                  Fair to say Grigg was deep at times and worked hard that way. But for me he wasn’t giving 100% in the striker role. 2 or 3 times in the first half we broke with nobody in the box, Grigg was jogging forward? Think he is definitely sulking about something.
