I mean we played alright but its hard to watch us right now. Feels like with CH in charge and Worrall back we'll be solid at the back but I'm struggling to see a scenario where we suddenly start scoring.
Going to be a long and boring season with a hint of a relegation battle. Just hope we keep CH when we get nowhere near playoffs (assuming we improve a bit at some point)

Last match thread I said no chance of relegation, apologies they are bloody awful and yes avoiding relegation is the aim
The whole club in rotten to the core
Christie very average player
Lolley less said the better
Figs is Figs
Ameobi very average
Same old same old really

Samba - didn’t do much wrong
Christie- a couple of wayward touches, some decent crosses
Ribeiro-much improved on last time out
Figs-great block from Ayew, we have three centre Mids yet he’s the one expected to move us up the pitch from back to front
McKenna - terrible header for their goal. Didn’t do anything else wrong
Yates - allowed them to build from throw ins, led to their goal. Could see it coming
Colback-does what Colback does
Ameobi-too weak for their goal, shocking really. Started brightly otherwise but waned
Knockaert-our biggest threat, created our best chance, desperately needs a goal
Guerrero-nothing of note, hold up play generally wasn’t good enough bar one or two moments
Taylor-did ok, hard work being the lone striker here
Arter-started well them deteriorated rapidly. A poor man’s Ben Osborn
Swan-worked hard, chased balls
Lolley-nothing of note, does he ever influence the game when coming off the bench?

At the moment I would not be surprised if we are playing Derby next season as well

I have seen many many teams just like us over the years. Teams right at the bottom of the league but they play pretty well for long periods of the game and make some decent chances and you cant understand why they are down there. But they never take those chances and then let in a soft goal at the other end and go home with nothing.
Thats us right now and I think the time has come for all of us to accept this is a relegation battle.

Not. Good. Enough.
The current management ( ownership & coaching staff ) need to grasp the nettle. Ditch the players that are just taking the money ( and there are quite a few going through the motions ) & build properly on what would still be a solid base ( inc the likes of Swan, Mighten, Johnson etc ).
Rome wasn’t built overnight.
Accept the inevitable & start planning for next season - NOW.

We already had oly cast offs under fawaz... I wonder just how long Marinakis has had his fingers in our club- certainly under montanier... he surely can’t be happy.
Samba - had nothing to do
Christie - decent on the attack not too bad defensively today
Figgs - shocking performance needs to be dropped
McKenna - our best player
Riberio - very average and lightweight
Yates - OK
Colback - so poor and glad he is injured to be honest
Knockeart- should have scored ran about a bit
Ameobi- best player on the pitch until the goal
Taylor- feel sorry for him- grafted but grabban would be hammered for similar
Guerrero- poor
Arter- OK should get a run of games now hopefully
Lolley- something very wrong there
Swan- did OK battled and won a corner from a 60/40 position
CH- needs to change something quickly- crying out for 343

Its about time we ditched this taking the knee at the start, we need a Stuart Pearce, get stuck in attitude, I couldn't see him taking the fooking knee
