      I’ll hold my hands up and give some praise to Kipre. He’s had 2 really good games and I honestly thought he was the worst defender we have ever had. Hope it continues and he has finally rid himself of those awful 3-4 ridiculous moments he displayed in every previous game he’s played.
      Nice one Cedric!

        Normal service resumed. Soon be rock bottom. Yesterday was pants. The only hope is a new manager to try re-energize and motivate us and that seems unlikely so league 1 getting nearer. The fact we can’t beat the teams around us is damning.All his over used excuses are irksome and the clubs hierarchy a disgrace refusing to address this situation. God help us at Blackburn who are heading to play offs and on a roll a club who again spent less than us but simply have a wiser,shrewder more experienced and far better man in charge.

        So did table topping West Brom

              We did the business good style!. Knocked it around superbly, created chances won all the battles. Was great to see Richardson and Barry talking tactics throughout and not arguing with 4th official all night. If you didn’t know which team was which you would have said we was the team at the top of the table.
              WTF was Jones playing at for the free kick that led to their goal??.
              I would keep things as they are for satdy but you just know Cook will ring the changes.
              Well done boys and please no West Brom were shit comments.

                I disagree totally that this squad is not good enough to hold their own in this league. The only thing Cook has got right in his post match grovellings is two words “fine margins”.
                We have lost or drawn the majority of games, especially away from home, by the odd goal. Games in which for the most part we’ve looked the better team. Its been a mixture of poor tactics, poor substitutions and individual mistakes. 66% of the reasons we’ve grabbed defeat from the jaws of victory have been down to Cook and his management team.
                I’ve been behind Cook all of the way up to recently, but have always been critical of the management team as a whole saying they have only played or worked previously for the likes of Accrington Stanley.
                Get a management team in with a bit more experience, a bit more tactical prowess and this squad can be at a level of one challenging for a top 6 place.
                I know cost will come into it, but its about speculating to accumulate at this stage. The money that playing in the championship brings opposed to that what League one has to offer are worlds apart.
                We were fortunate last time that we bounced back at first attempt, next time we might not bounce back and that in my opinion could be a few nails in our coffin.
                Let’s put sentiment to one side, look to see if there are any experienced managers out there that might fancy a new challenge for the right reasons, being that they are already multi millionaires and see where it takes us. It has to be now, to allow for them to weigh up the squad before the January window closes.
                I won’t accept that going back to league one is acceptable or proactive in any way shape or form for this club.

                    Dujon Sterling looked quite poor on his debut against stoke in the cup game. Had to wait until cook and gang realised that Byrne is not a championship player before giving him a league start.
                    I agree with cup winners here, it’s all hear say about what’s actually happening with this guy and if he has a bad attitude, its up to our management to get him thinking positive,just like they did with a certain Mr Powell. The other option is to send the feker back to Wolves with a note from his mum explaining why he’s being returned.

                    Wasn’t we hearing that Windass had spat his dummy out about not playing and been posting things on social media about his fitness position? He played Saturday so I presume it was either all “hear say” or they’ve slapped his hands and got his attitude back where it should be.
                    Cook and team must do the same with this Bright geezer or get shut. I would think if the things that George has referred to are true,
                    theres enough reasons for the club to terminate his loan contract with immediate effect.

                      If the pay off is too much why not bring in an owd yed like Warnock and get him sit along side of cook, make sit down for 90 mins and concentrate on tactics. Booked again for arguing with 4th official, its got embarrassing now!

                        I shouted down to Cook and Richardson “we should be clapping that after 8 mins not 88” at which point they turned to the field shoulders dropped and heads hung.
                        Get somebody in now who can weigh the squad up for 4-5 games before the window opens.

                          Why oh why did he have to make ANY subs let alone take your best player off. Thought we looked comfortable up to that point and played some good stuff going forward. That game was lost due to poor substitutions, Cook cannot defend what he did. The only player that should have been subbed was Jacobs and that should have been done at half time or before.
                          Time to go Cook I’m afraid, turning round to the crowd and clapping when Joffy spun and shot on 88 mins was a fekin joke. Too little too late yet again. Weekend spoilt again!

                            If fans want to take negatives from that performance then they are never going to be pleased. I’ve never seen us attack like that in numbers for a long time. At times we had 4 and 5 in their box. Fans might say its a case of papering over the cracks, and I can fully understand why, but give credit where credits due.
                            That was 200% better than how we’ve previously been shaping away from home.

                              Good point well deserved 4-4-2 looked much better, had more attempts than we’ve had in the previous 10 away games.

                              14 shots 7 on target. Waaaaooow

                                We will dominate the game for long periods, look the far better team than Millwall and at some point go 1-0 up. Cook will make some ridiculous changes when there was no need to and we will concede 2 late goals, the winner in injury time. Why are we bothering with these predictions anymore we all know what will happen.

                                  If fans don’t go just because they think the manager should get sacked then we don’t want them. What do you think it will achieve even if a few hundred drop off? I’ll tell you, fek all.
                                  Stop this nonsense about voting with your feet, this is not directed at you personally its anyone who is thinking of not going. Believe me nobody at the club will give a shiny shyte and its them who make the decisions. I really believe we need to change the manager, but if they put a penguin in charge I would still be there behind my team.
